Overrated - seen it all before

Rating: Null/10 (10 January 2003)

I don't know why this film got so much attention before it had even been released. How many comic books have been made into films? Let's see, there was Batman, Superman, X-Men, Daredevil, Popeye... we've seen it all, so why do we need to milk this one???
While the special effects were pretty good, I found this film to be rather dry and predictable. The 'Green Goblin' got on my nerves because of that stupid laugh, and I noticed that Tobey Maguire speaks on the same tone throughout the whole film no matter how intense or emotional the situation is...
Anyway, I have loved every other comic-book-turned-film before this one, but this one is just a drop in the ocean.
