Should have been a day time soap

Rating: 5/10 (6 May 2007)

I walked into the theater with no real expectations, i didn't want to set myself up for disappointment. Well it couldn't be helped since i watched this film. This series of spiderman doesn't follow either the comic books or the last installments, it seemed to me more of a director/producers vision of what spiderman should be. To me special effects are great if used as a part of the story and not"as was the case in spiderman 3" to make the movie. No one can say the effects were not good, they were, but to what end. To cover up a really horrible told story. I read many comics as kid and spiderman was some of what i liked, never did spiderman make friends with his enemies like was portrayed in this movie. It was ridiculous. Then of course the whole original ides of our heroes evil side, i was waiting for superman to fly in with his nicotine based kryptonite. Oh and we cant forget how to get to the good guy can we, grab his girlfriend. WOW never seen that before. I think the name of this movie would have been more descriptive if it were"Spiderman 3 the cliché'" very unoriginal. Now the love triangle boy meets girl, girl loves boy , girl goes back to EX, EX uses girl , other boy gets mad and does the same, then at the end they are all friends again.........SIGH........ That hurt just writing that. Over all i see this movie only as a possible DVD collection, only to make your series complete, nothing more. I give this movie a 5, but that is purely on the special effects parts of the movie. I left the theater feeling betrayed, and feel they spent so much on advertising that my ticked must have helped pay for that. Don't go to the theater, stay home and rent the DVD when it comes out in three months. At least that way you have a toilet to run to after this film makes you sick.
