The Amazing Spider-Man

Rating: 10/10 (4 July 2004)

This movie develops the character of Peter Parker; as well as his family, friends, and foes. The storyline was intricate, the dialogue was perfect, the special effects were great, and the acting was excellent. Sam Raimi's direction was perfect for presenting Spider-Man/Peter Parker. Every single line uttered in this movie was important and could not be cut from the movie. During a period when sequels have not proven to be nearly as good as the original, the Spider-Man series has proven us wrong. Spider-Man 2 is the movie of the summer (and probably the year). Thank you Sam Raimi for making a great Hollywood movie, and I know you will continue keeping the quality of the Spider-Man franchise high.
