Spider-Man: Brand New Day

2026· 2h 25m

The biggest action spectacle in Bern this week — non-stop superhero carnage

Spider-Man faces an invisible threat while battling an identity crisis that pushes him to a dangerous transformation — the kind of high-stakes arc that gives blockbuster action real weight. The set pieces are relentless, and at 145 minutes it earns its runtime. Minor gripe: PG-13 softens a few punches, but the spectacle more than compensates.
