Pretty Much gets Spiderman right? Yes. Some bad dialogue? Yes.

Rating: 8/10 (10 May 2002)

*spoiler?*
What i liked: overall i liked this movie. I thought the CGI was pretty good, i especially liked the webslinging(best sequence being the end)and the acrobatics. Dafoe's Goblin laugh was great. The actor who played Jameson was dead on.
What i didn't really like: IMO the thing about this movie is that they really dropped the ball with the dialogue. A lot of stuff was just badly written or badly delivered. The writing in the comics right now is ten times better. ....and they got to work on this script for how many years? ....and it went through what? 2,722 drafts?
they especially blew it with Spider-man's dialogue. He's a wisecracker. He's supposed to be funny. He gives you nothing in this movie. Pete as Spidey doesn't have much to say, and when he does...Tobey's just off or it's just not a good line.
Ex. Goblin- "Are you in or out?" Spider-man- "It is you who is out, GOBBY!" ....and i still think the Goblin outfit is horrible. The glider was great, but the costume....guh.
One more thing that bothered me was how "the burglar" died . They should've stuck with the comics on this one. Wouldn't it have been so much better if Pete had beaten him within an inch of his life and forced himself not to kill the guy who murdered his uncle ?
Instead he tripped....and fell out of a window.
i guess i'd give it a 7.5/10. It felt like spider-man, but it could've been so much better
