A very entertaining movie that is a whole lot of fun to watch.

Rating: Null/10 (13 May 2002)

Before watching this movie I had doubts about this movie and braced myself expecting a non-stop concoction of mindless visuals and action where the story plays a secondary role. I was very pleasantly surprised with the whole movie as it had an excellent blend of action, and visuals and dare to say.. a rather nice story line. This film kept me entertained all the way through and I couldn't help but smile during some of the scenes. In the first twenty minutes of the movie I knew this movie was going to entertain because the producers had paid tiny attention to detail which tends to get unnoticed in some of the movies of today. I am guessing this film took a great deal of time to plan and finish and boy has it been worth it. Apart from just creating a mish-mash of a non-stop mindless action with no theme behind it the producers of this movie worked very hard to create a nice balance between the portrayal of a superhero's character and the real living man behind superhero Peter Parker. The film strikes true by showing the clumsy attempts of the superhero's unashamed mistakes when using his new found powers. In all, a lively entertaining film that is fun to watch and makes you feel close to a superhero character than has ever before possible. This includes the film Batman which does a respectable job of bringing a superhero to life but the film setting appears in a fantasy city of Gotham which makes the story less believable. Thumbs up to the producer and director of this movie for bringing a super hero character a lot more closer to life. A must see movie.
