The worst Spidey film

Rating: 2/10 (6 May 2007)

I just came back from watching the film and I just had to write a review to warn off potential viewers. It is awful.
I grew up with comics and although Spidey has never been my favorite (I am a Wolverine Fan)I always appreciated the complexities of the character both as spider-man and as Peter Parker.
I think that the main flaw of this film has to be the director and the screenwriters. In both the previous films I thought that Tobey Maguire was quite a good choice for Spidey, but in this film he just constantly got on my nerves. He just comes across as way too geeky and his dark persona just too cheesy rather than dark. All during the film the whole of the cinema was laughing but not with the film but at the film.
On the plus side: Venom...good, Sandmand...good, fights...decent but not spectacular.
All in all, I think it was a waste of money. Spidey 1 & 2 are in my DVD collection, but No. 3 will not be.
