Pretty good until the end.

Rating: 1/10 (6 May 2002)

This movie was pretty good right up until the end. Tobey Maguire is a great actor and he did a great job as Spider-Man. In fact all of the characters were good. Without giving away what happened, parts near the end were completely ludricrous. A non-superhero character possesses more than superhero abilities near the end, apparently disobeying gravity and the laws of physics. Although it was based on a comic book, that doesn't merit characters, supposedly average everyday people, to have outrageous abilities unless he/she is actually the superhero. I guess this is all I can say without giving away a spoiler since most of my qualms are about the end. All in all, I guess I would tell you to see it and make your own decision.
