This was good, no maybe okay at best

Rating: 1/10 (8 May 2002)

I don't usually write something about of movie, unless it really bothers me. And in this case boy was i bothered. I never read the spider-man comic books or saw any of the cartoons, i mean I'm better than that. But back to the movie, for the fact the so many people went to see it on opening weekend,i expected that it would be amazing, boy i was wrong. Sure the orignal idea for spiderman was to have a loser kid transform into this amazingly freakish superhero, but why Toby. Not that I have anything wrong with him, he's still a good actor, but after you take the glasses off spiderman deserves to be cooler,James Franco, would have been better for godsakes. But back to the actual movie. I see everyone forgetting this movie by next summer. I feel the story was tragically flawed. The plot just really weak. The only time I was actually glad while watching this movie was when i saw Willem Dafoe, but most of the time he had a horribly ridiculous mask on. Nothing in the movie hopped out and hit me with amazement, even the graphic, they were good but it's nothing I havent seen before. Well to sum it up, the plot was predictable, the action lacked horribly, the graphics were par, and the best acting game into play in the form of Dafoe, with that ridiculous outfit. Overall i would like to tell everyone that its not worth the hype and i wished i waited for it on video. For those who say its the best comic book movie since Superman, you don't know your ass from your elbow. Both superman and batman, were far superior. I gave it a 6, just because i liked the opening theme song. Oh yea it was great seeing Macho Man again, he was so good in Ready to Rumble (If you can't pick on the sarcasm you are a fool)And you see this in the theater you are a fool too.
