More Fun, Less Cynicism

Rating: 9/10 (8 May 2002)

The movie was purely good fun. Sure, it can be hokey, but all Superhero flicks are to some extent. As for the effects, how realistic can a man in blue tights swinging on skyscrapers look? I thought the effects added to the story, which was strong enough with the tension that is formed from his birth as "The Human Spider". It's not meant to be taken seriously (kinda obvious since it doesn't take itself too seriously, as Batman successfully did...which is a rarity). And all I have to say is...successful cameo by Macho Man Randy Savage? Ok...now it has to be given credit.
