Best Film of 2002

Rating: 9/10 (19 November 2002)

"Spiderman" was easily the best (i.e. most enjoyable) film of the year, with a good story, good character development and state-of-the-art special effects. OK, the Green Goblin outfit was a bit hokey and the movie was a wee bit slow in parts, but the scenes of New York were surprisingly authentic (I liked the attention to detail, such as the small Columbia University pennant in Peter's apartment) and the story was just plain good, old-fashioned excitement, and fun. See it (again)!
