Sam Raimi at his best!

Rating: 10/10 (1 June 2002)

Spiderman is a great movie that stays true to the comic. Sam Raimi has always been a brilliant director, starting with Evil Dead, Evil Dead II:Dead by Dawn & Evil Dead III:Army of Darkness. I wont go on about the movies plot since everyone on here has already. Just go see the movie. One of the beg points of the movie is that the greatest actor of all time, The king himself, Bruce Campbell, has a role as the ring announcer. The characters themselves are believable and well acted. I cant stand Kristin Dunst, but even she was very good. Toby McGuire played the nerdy guy perfect and was the perfect casting for Peter Parker. Bravo Sam Raimi. You are the dirtector of the fastest money grossing movie ever made. Im proud of you my Evil Dead friend.
I will comment on the fools [especially the fool in the UK] who talk about the presence of American Patriotism in Spiderman. If you dont like it, too bad. Spiderman is a American made movie, Sam Raimi is an American, and he wanted to put in something patriotic. The end credits when Spiderman hangs from a flag pole with the american flag flying still sends shivers up my spine. Spiderman the movie is basedin New York, If you all recall the Twin Towers trailer that was later taken off TV. Spiderman even wears red, white & Blue. The movie itself is a symbol of America and what we are. So if you have a problem with the USA and great New Yorkers, then tough! Go see the film and quit being babbling.
