小島秀夫在社交媒體上發布了一篇長篇影評，分享了他對電影《蜘蛛人：重生日》的觀感。他對影片給予了高度評價，稱其為彼得·帕克故事新鮮而成功的延續。
據小島秀夫稱，這部電影聚焦於孤獨的彼得·帕克，他不得不再次在沒有慣常支持的情況下獨自應對自己的難題。在這位遊戲設計師看來，正是這種處理方式讓本片有了一種全新的感覺。
他指出，以往的《蜘蛛人》電影通常是啟用新演員和新創作團隊，各自構成獨立的三部曲。而《嶄新之日》則不同，創作團隊既保持了與上一部的連貫性，又成功開啟了故事的新篇章，實際上是在既有的電影宇宙內部對角色進行了一次「重啟」。
Watched 「Spider-Man: Brand New Day.」 A lonely hero. A lonely Spidey. A lonely Peter Parker. It felt fresh, and I really enjoyed it. Until now, Spider-Man films have generally been grouped into self-contained trilogies. With each new iteration, the cast and creative team changed, allowing the franchise to reinvent itself for a new era. This time, however, while both the cast and the story continue from the previous film, everything has been reset. The film focuses on Peter, once again alone, and the loneliness and inner conflict that come with that. It can be seen both as the beginning of a new series and as a direct continuation of the last one. A very clever structure. In the age of social media and its immense power to amplify every opinion, striking the right balance between what filmmakers want to create and what audiences expect has become incredibly difficult. Genuine, heartfelt filmmaking is becoming increasingly challenging. Because of that, this is a film that puts the 「Brand」 in 「Brand New Day」 to the test, as part of a blockbuster franchise that simply cannot afford to fail. 🕷️
小島秀夫還注意到，如今的商業大片越來越難在導演的創作願景與觀眾期望之間找到平衡，尤其是在社交媒體時代，任何決定都會瞬間引發激烈反應。在他看來，正因如此，《蜘蛛人：重生日》成了一次檢驗——考驗如此龐大的系列電影能否既保持自身的獨特性，同時又滿足觀眾的期待。
