Spider-Man: Brand New Day

2026· 2h 25m

Big-screen superhero action with real stakes

Spider-Man: Brand New Day puts Tom Holland's Peter Parker against a threat no one can even see, and the pressure of fighting crime unremembered sparks a transformation he may not control. This is kinetic science fiction action built for a large screen, with Jon Bernthal and Zendaya rounding out the cast, and it sits at a strong 8.1 on IMDb. It plays in English in St. Gallen and is easy to catch this week.

Mutiny

Lean one-man revenge thriller with Statham on a cargo ship

Mutiny is exactly the kind of tight, kinetic action you want: Jason Statham's Cole Reed is framed for his boss's murder and boards a cargo ship on a one-man crusade that uncovers an international conspiracy. At 95 minutes it wastes no time, and director Jean-Francois Richet keeps the momentum brutal and direct. It screens in English in St. Gallen with a solid handful of showings.

The Dog Stars

Ridley Scott post-pandemic survival thriller with a hunt at its core

The Dog Stars drops you into a ravaged world where a lone survivor, his dog, and a dour gunman chase a mysterious radio transmission across Colorado. Ridley Scott directs Jacob Elordi and Josh Brolin through a science fiction thriller with a real sense of danger and pursuit. It plays in English in St. Gallen, though screenings are fewer than the top pick, so plan ahead if you want to see it big.
