The Amazing Spider Man Review

My Movie Rating Method: I will be using a different ranking system then anyone else. There are 4 possible ranks I will give a movie starting with the lowest. SKIP IT(do not see the movie it is terrible) FREE MOVIE TUESDAY(it was average not to bad not to great or worth seeing but prolly don't go pay to see it), MUST SEE (it was great movie worth paying for), and lastly LEGENDARY(this is a must see movie, see it as soon as possible and if offered in imax/3d see that version becasue it is worth the money.

The Positive: It was a lot better then I expected. After seeing all the commercials and trailers I did not think this movie was going to be that great. I like Spider-Man he is one if not my favorite Marvel Superhero so I have very high expectations for anything he is in. With that said the movie was pretty good. the acting was better then most superhero movies especially from the actors who played spider man and Qwen Stacey. More notable performances include Martin Sheen and Denis Leary. The special effects were great and the action was pretty cool. I also liked that they tried to make some things different from the Sam Rami films such as introducing a new vilian and keeping Peter in high school.

The Negative: The introduction was slow. It took Peter Parker to long to become spider man but that could be forgiven because they were trying to flesh out his past more. The worse part about this movie though. is comparing it to the Sam Rami/Toby Spider-Man films. I would have to say I did enjoy those films more and they hold a special place for those films being some of the best superhero movies ever made. It is hard to watch this and not think of what could have been with a Spider Man 4 from Rami. As long as you can get past that and just sit back and enjoy this movie for what it is you will have a good time.

My Rating: Must See
