I was very underwhelmed by this movie.

Rating: 5/10 (26 December 2002)

Hmm. After all the money this thing took in at the box office, I was expecting something a lot more impressive. The movie was badly paced (stuff happened WAY too fast) and populated with a bunch of characters that I didn't care about. During the "touching, emotional" scenes, I just felt bored. The acting ranged from novice to just plain bad: "I swear on my father's grave, Spiderman will pay for what he did." As far as comic book to movie adaptations go, this thing was a little better than, say, "Judge Dredd" or "Batman and Robin". But it fell way short of "Blade", "Men in Black", or "Superman".
