Tom Holland's "The Crowded Room" Fails to Launch Actor Outside Spider-Man's Shadow
- Tom Holland, known for playing Spider-Man, stars in and produces the new Apple TV+ series "The Crowded Room."
- Critics say the psychological thriller lacks dramatic momentum and takes too long to reach its destination.
- Holland's performance is showy but does not make the most of his charisma and likability.
- The series aims to portray dissociative identity disorder accurately but still relies on twisty storytelling.
- While the performances are strong, the uninspired show pale in comparison to better crime thrillers.
