Amazingly boring

Rating: 1/10 (3 July 2002)

I went to see Spiderman hoping that the critics were right and it was not another Batman Forever. But, as usual, critics were wrong. The acting is bad, and so are the dialogues -whenever Parker talks to M.J. longer than ten seconds it becomes irritant. Special effects are not specially bad, but didn't shock me. Spiderman looked very fake during some scenes -mainly action scenes-, though. Action scenes are just fine, but unspectacular. The Green Goblin looks like if he stole some Power Ranger suit, and sometimes he was also too clownish. Peter Parker doesn't make any joke while fighting with the Green Goblin, what is a shame, since it was part of his personality in the comic-book.
Yeah, it beats Batman and Robin, but that's not saying much. After watching Spiderman, I must say that Attack of the Clones was far better. In fact, it was funny, since all that was supposed to be better done in Spiderman was ridiculously bad. I left the cinema very disappointed.
