    Spider-Man: No Way Home

    ★★★

    The last time I paid both the monetary and the emotional prices to experience an MCU movie in theaters was 1,629 days ago, when I saw Spider-Man: Homecoming. At the time, I walked out of the theater dissatisfied with what I referred to as trivial characters, unimaginative storytelling, and an overwhelmingly stale and formulaic feel. Rather than hoisting my shield and continuing to bludgeon my way through the coming onslaught of Marvel's cinematic phases, I raised the white flag and…

    As I get older, the list of directors whose work I’m committed to consistently seeking out continues to grow. Long as that list may be, it stands that one of the first names to enter those ranks (for me, at least) was Darren Aronofsky. This isn't to say all of his films are perfect.
