The previous movie, Spider-Man: No Way Home, brought back all of the previous Spider-Men, and quite a few previous Spider-Man villains.  It was a lot of fun and kind of felt like the end of the series.  Thankfully, Spider-Man: Brand New Day does not disappoint.  It&#8217;s not my favorite Spider-Man movie, and it certainly lacks a lot of the fun and humor that was central in the other Tom Holland Spider-Man movies, but it is still a lot of fun and definitely worth the watch.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grade: A-<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The End of Oak Street, which stars Ewan McGregor and Anne Hathaway, was also a lot of fun.  It is sort-of like Jurassic Park meshed with Back to the Future.  An entire neighborhood goes back in time to the prehistoric era, forcing the family to survive in a dinosaur-filled world.  It is going for an early 90&#8217;s movie feel, and it pulls it off.  I think most will enjoy this one, but especially if you grew up on Spielberg.  It&#8217;s a fun watch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grade: B+<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been quite a few years since the last Spider-Man movie, and it was a hard one to top.
