Over stuffed and over cooked

Rating: 5/10 (8 April 2010)

'll tell you what's wrong with SM3 in one word; clutter. There is too much director Sam Ramini is trying to cram into this movie. There is Sandman's connection with Peter's Uncles killing, Harry Osbourn's revenge, Peter struggling with the alien suit, Eddie Brock turning into Venom, love triangle of Peter, Mary Jane & Gwen Stacy, Peter keeping up with rent.....ahh, I can go on forever baby. Sandman could have been dropped from the film all together and I wouldn't have noticed. As Ramani plays this juggling act he forgets to treat the most important part of the film with care; the black suit. Ramani doesn't even take the black suit seriously when Peter puts it on, even though it was advertised in the commercials as Peter having a dark, brooding struggle with his dark side. This is what the main focus of the movie should have been, but got lost in the shuffle. Anyway, this movie is fun to watch on the big screen, but don't expect it to age well over time.
