Great effects

Rating: 9/10 (19 September 2010)

Spiderman the movie is an action packed (focus on plot) hero versus villain (theme) story with a touch of romance. Average boy, Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) finds himself with spider-like qualities after being bitten by a genetically altered spider on a field trip to Columbia University. His admiration for his neighbor, Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst) also known as MJ, has inspired him to use these new found abilities to impress her and others with acts of heroism.
This story brings an emotional closeness of family. Peter Parker and Harry Osborn (James Franco) are the best of friends; Peter has lost parents and lives with his Uncle Ben (Cliff Robertson) and Aunt May (Rosemary Harris). Harry Lives only with his father, Norman Osborn (Willem Dafoe). Don't forget about MJ, she lives with her father next door to Peter's and his family. They have all lost loved ones and are doing the best they can to get by.
The conflict of Spiderman and the Green Goblin is very intense; this brings technology in filming to its finest. The lighting used was fabulous, the low-key lighting used when someone was in danger or high-key lighting used when Spiderman had saved the day. The angles used to catch Spiderman and the Goblin was fantastic, as they fly through the air in many different directions. Spiderman casting his webs, swinging from place to place and the Green Goblin riding the glider brings a challenge to produce the film but great entertainment for the viewer. What made this movie stand out from others, even Avatar was great visually, but the sound effects used in Spiderman were exceptional. Sounds to intensify or calm a scene, such as a scene full of conflict had great audio to intensify the scene, sounds of calmness when the conflict is resolved, and sounds of sorrow in times sadness. This made Spiderman, the movie, so impressive.
This,hero versus villain, film is absolutely one of the best films of all times, and provides a variety of entertainment for everyone; action, fantasy, and romance. Great characters, great actors helped this movie be a fabulous film to view over and over again. The sequels Spiderman II and Spiderman III are available now, and are anticipated to be just as great or even better. More villain, more romancewho could turn that down? Enjoy the movie.
