Good effects no substitute for a good story!

Rating: 4/10 (16 May 2007)

This has to be the worst of the three (two being the best). It is over long and choppy. A good editor was obviously not employed or employed and then not allowed to do his job - considering the content (or lack there of) this film was far too long.
Although I was never much of a spider-man comic book reader I do remember a lot of other the other comic book heroes and their stories and some of the stories were real corkers.
The special effects were very good but when will Hollywood realise that good special effects on their own do not make a good film  even a comic book film  and they are no substitute for a good story! I saw Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst being interviewed on television recently and it was one of the most boring interviews I have seen in a long time  the interviewer realising this tried his best to liven things up but to no avail. I don't really care about this and I only mention it now because the performance of Kirsten Dunst in this film is, unfortunately, as flat and as dead as that interview.
