Nine of Ten Stars

Rating: 9/10 (7 May 2002)

I have seen many reviews of this film that are very positive, and I agree with many of them. Ebert only gave the movie two and a half stars. I really don't know how he justified it - especially if he was a reader of the comic. His major problem seemed to be the special effects. However, the thing to remember is that this movie is a movie based on a comic book. The film should have that cartoon levity feel.
All the actors brought their A-game. Tobey Maguire was the perfect Peter Parker. Though I originally thought Kirsten Dunst did not really fit as MJ, her pep and spunk fit very well.
See this while this is in the theaters.
9/10 - A
