Amazing Spiderman.
6/10.
How they could justify making this movie after the previous set of Spiderman movies - I have no idea. I guess it was a commercial decision and the movie did make money at the Box Office.
Comparing Spiderman (1), with Tobey Maguire (TB), to this - the TB movie was much better. The special FX in this movie are of the same level as seen in Jurrassic Park, 19 years ago, which is not good for a comic book movie. The storyline concentrates far too much on love between teenagers (I have no interest in teenage love stories) and the action isn't particularly great.
Most of the time, I prefer the "newer" version, as SFX normally improve with age and action movie making techniques also improve. But this movie wouldn't be out of place had it been released 15 years ago. In fact, 15 years ago. Perhaps the movie was made an a low budget - I have no idea.
Is this an "ok" film - yes.
Is it better than the original Spiderman - no.
Am I disappointed - definitely.
