40 years worth waiting!

Rating: 10/10 (6 October 2002)

I have been waiting for Spider-Man to make it to the big screen my entire life. Its really surreal to finally watch it. 40 years in the making and this movie was well worth it's expensive $9.00 a ticket.
The characters were well cast and the acting was top-notch. The story goes by the comic book head-on and captures the comic atmosphere. Along with that, the Fx were above and beyond belief. Some people seem to dislike the film because of the bright look of the film, which wasn't as dark as the 1989 Batman flick. Spider-Man isn't supposed to be that way, and if you read any Spider-Man comics, you would understand why. Some people also disliked it because of the Green Goblin's costume. "it looked goofy and looked like it came out of a Power Rangers episode"...the costume was perfect people. If you took the actual look from the comic book, it would look way too goofy, it's the new millenium.
The score was awesome. From the maintitles to the endtitles, Danny Elfman did a great job of keeping the "Superhero" sound of the movie. Overall, this movie was excellent and well worth it's wait.
