Really entertaining...

Rating: 8/10 (23 June 2002)

I really liked this movie. The action is good, the actors are good, the beginning is funny, the special effects are good. I don't know what else to say about the good sides of this movie. I weren't into the Spiderman comics before, so I cannot comment on how much Raimi left off from the original. But I liked it, and as it is often it's harder for me to put a finger on what I liked that on what I didn't like. And there were some things that I didn't like. Some of the costumes looked as if they came right out of a Power Rangers episode. Some animations of Spiderman looked extremely fake and computer generated. The last few minutes (I don't mean the scene on the cemetery but the last fight) were a bit boring, and in the second half of the movie it somehow lost its humor.
Again this sounds as if this would be just a mediocre movie, but it isn't. It's really good. Go and watch it :).
8/10
