Amazingly Spectacular

Rating: 10/10 (3 November 2002)

All those years of talk. All those years of cast, crew, writers...all over! Marvel's flagship hero of Spider-Man finally comes to life!
The casting is nothing short of perfect. Tobey is wonderful as Peter/Spidey, Dafoe is frightingly fantastic as Norman/Green Goblin. Robertson and Harris both shine as Ben & May, Kirsten is fabulous as Mary Jane, Franco is grand as Harry. All these historic characters are brought vividly to life, especially that of Jameson.
Sam Raimi's direction brings a great feeling to the film, you can tell he truly did put his heart into this project. The entire cast and crew give their all in this movie. Indeed it is "wonderous to behold" as someone said. Thumbs up guys, bring on Spider-Man 2!
