Spider-Man Brand New Day 3D Movie Review

Written By: Jake Jarvis

3D

Spider-Man: Brand New Day delivers some of the most exciting and consistently impressive 3D action the MCU has offered in years.

The 3D in the many fight scenes—especially the Easter egg-packed montage—is spectacular. Not only is there excellent depth, but the imaginative camera angles make the action leap off the screen. While some quieter scenes don’t make much use of the format, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has so much action that there’s always another showcase sequence just around the corner.

The camerawork during the battles really makes the 3D shine. The depth feels especially impressive during the larger action scenes, creating a sense of scale that’s both immersive and exciting. The fight between Spider-Man and the ninjas (The Hand) alone is worth the price of a 3D ticket, and it’s only one of several incredible action sequences.

If you’re planning to see Spider-Man: Brand New Day, this is absolutely a film to experience in 3D.

Final 3D Score: 9/10 And Editors Choice

Movie

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is exactly the kind of sequel Spider-Man needed—fresh, surprising, and packed with payoff without losing what made the previous films work.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is a new beginning for Spider-Man, but it isn’t a reboot. The film assumes you’re familiar with the Jon Watts Spider-Man “home” trilogy and the Avengers films. This is still the 38th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, so newcomers may find themselves a little lost. Fortunately, most audiences have probably seen enough Marvel content to jump right in.

The story picks up four years after the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home, with Peter Parker still dealing with the fallout of Doctor Strange’s memory spell. The public may have forgotten Peter Parker, but they certainly haven’t forgotten Spider-Man. He’s become a trusted hero, even earning the respect of law enforcement and other government agencies.

One of the film’s biggest strengths is how well Brand New Day protects its surprises. The trailers reveal very little of the actual story, leaving plenty of unexpected twists, cameos, and exciting moments to discover in the theater. Better yet, those cameos and supporting appearances all serve the story instead of existing solely as fan service.

The film packs enough story for several movies but never feels rushed. Every major storyline receives satisfying attention, and the plot moves confidently from one moment to the next. The characters make intelligent decisions, the twists feel earned rather than predictable, and the action scenes are choreographed incredibly well.

Beyond the story, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is simply an exciting movie to watch. The cinematography keeps every action sequence dynamic, using creative camera placement and movement to make each battle feel fresh and easy to follow. The action isn’t just spectacle for spectacle’s sake—it pushes the story forward and raises the stakes with every encounter. By the time the credits roll, all of the character moments, surprises, and thrilling set pieces come together to deliver a truly rewarding experience that reminds you why Spider-Man remains one of Marvel’s greatest heroes. Director Destin Daniel Cretton brings the same energy he displayed in Shang-Chi while giving Spider-Man a fresh identity that still feels true to what came before. Spider-Man: Brand New Day succeeds because it tells a compelling story that justifies its place in Spider-Man’s ongoing journey.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day feels like a truly meaningful next chapter rather than simply another cash grab sequel, making it one of the strongest Spider-Man films.

Final Movie Score: 10/10

Thunderbolts*

3D Movie Review

by Jacob Scarberry

3D

This is easily one of the MCU’s best examples of what they can do with converted 3D. Right from the jump, there’s a great sense of depth and dimension—starting with Yelena skydiving off a skyscraper, which gives you that stomach-dropping sense of vertigo. There are a ton of pop-out moments too. Yelena, Bucky, and US Agent all aim their weapons straight at the audience more than once, and it ranges from subtle to straight-up in-your-face—and it’s awesome. One standout moment has OxCorp sentries pointing laser sights directly at you, and it really lands.

Now, I did notice a fair bit of ghosting in the backgrounds of some scenes. I’m not sure if that’s on the theater’s projector, the screen, or maybe the cinematography itself—but it’s worth noting. Still, Thunderbolts* is a first-rate 3D presentation and absolutely worth the upgrade if your local theater offers it.

Final 3D Score: 8/10

Movie

Hello Darkness, My Old Friend. This is definitely a change of pace from your typical MCU fare and I am here for it. Thunderbolts* is a far better movie than I expected.

Thunderbolts* opens with Yelena (Florence Pugh), still struggling with the loss of her sister from Avengers Endgame. She’s working for Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus going full evil “Veep” here), drowning in depression and vodka, feeling completely lost. To make things worse, the closest thing she’s ever had to a father, Alexei (David Harbour), has kept his distance since the events of the Black Widow movie, which only deepens the emotional weight she’s carrying. Meanwhile, Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) is now a congressman—yeah, seriously—and he’s investigating Val and OxCorp, who are caught up in a mess of shady dealings. Val’s on the verge of impeachment from her CIA position, and to cover her tracks, she starts erasing the evidence—by sending Yelena, US Agent (Wyatt Russell), Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen), and Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko) to kill each other and destroy everything, bodies included. In the chaos, they accidentally find Project Sentry: a guy named Bob (Lewis Pullman). These characters band together to survive, get revenge, and—despite themselves—start to become an actual team, all while facing their own demons.

This isn’t your average Marvel flick. No endless quips, no shaky-cam fight scenes, no SkyBeam™ finales. This movie goes deeper, to more unexpected places. Sure, there’s action to keep the casual fans hooked, but what really pulls you in is the psychological edge (think that junkyard fight in Superman III—yeah, that kind of cerebral). Thunderbolts* is one smart movie (far smarter than it looks). And somehow, director Jake Schrier (Paper Towns, Beef) pulls it off. The film balances brains and spectacle, and the script gives us solid storytelling, real character work, and actual laughs that don’t feel forced.

The acting is strong across the board, with Florence Pugh and Lewis Pullman standing out in particular. Their performances work not just individually, but because of the chemistry they share. Despite being a hodgepodge team, the group works surprisingly well together—and they’re genuinely fun to watch on screen.

If I have one complaint, it’s that the first half of the movie drags just a bit. There’s a whole stretch (in the gorgeous Utah landscape) that goes on for too long. A tighter edit could’ve trimmed 10 minutes and sharpened the pace.

Still, everything else fires on all cylinders. Thunderbolts* isn’t just one of the best post-Endgame films—it might be top-tier MCU, period. Don’t expect Marvel’s version of The Suicide Squad. Expect a smart, thoughtful comic book movie that kicks off summer 2025 in the best way possible—and man, do we need that right now.

Final Movie Score: 9/10

Captain America Brave New World

3D Movie Review

Written by Adolph Vega

captain America brave new world 3d movie poster

3D

The 3D presentation of Captain America: New World Order is predominantly depth-based. This approach draws you into the storytelling. The film cleverly uses intimate settings and long corridors to enhance the 3D effect. These choices add a pronounced sense of space and perspective. For example, one scene features the President seated at the rear of a long table. Precise camera positioning makes you feel as if you’re right there in the room, enveloped by the layered depth of the shot. Although there are occasional pop-out effects (NOT NEARLY ENOUGH), the overall emphasis remains on depth. One impressive example of the 3D visuals is the aerial dogfight above the Indian Ocean, which is both tense and visually stunning. In contrast, some darkly lit scenes do not work as well for the 3D visuals. Overall, the 3D aspect of Captain America: New World Order offers an enjoyable visual experience, even if it leaves you wanting more.

Final 3D Score: 7/10

Movie

Captain America: New World Order marks a bold foray into political thriller territory, and Anthony Mackie shines as the titular hero. His strong presence and unwavering conviction lend the film an added layer of gravitas, making his portrayal of the new Captain America truly compelling. The chemistry between Sam Wilson and Joaquin Torres (the new Falcon) is fantastic, capturing a genuine sense of brotherhood that enriches the storyline. Harrison Ford’s performance as President Ross further bolsters the film by providing seasoned depth to the ensemble. However, the narrative is intermittently bogged down by heavy exposition dumps that feel like spoon-feeding the story, and the overt political and racial messaging. I don’t disagree with the film’s sentiment but it should have been more subtle. The film comes off as rather heavy-handed and that might turn off some people.

The film’s action choreography is phenomenal, delivering many exhilarating sequences that counterbalance the more subdued, toned-down approach to comedy (compared to typical Marvel fare). Even though the movie runs a bit long, I still really enjoyed it. Viewers of the Disney TV show Falcon and the Winter Soldier will be rewarded, while the movie remains accessible for newcomers. The compelling villain adds tension to the politically charged narrative, and nods to the aftermath of The Incredible Hulk and The Eternals help weave together the broader Marvel tapestry. I did find the story a little predictable and reliant on many well-known spy, political, and action movie tropes. It’s unfortunate that some audiences might dismiss the film due to a reluctance to engage with a new black Captain America. It is also unfortunate that some audiences (maybe the same as previously stated) won’t enjoy this movie because they don’t care for or understand geopolitics.

Overall, Captain America: New World Order is an enjoyable, if imperfect, blend of action and political intrigue that I can easily recommend it.

Final Movie Score: 7/10
