This is the worst spidey film ever

Rating: 3/10 (17 May 2007)

After two stellar films I really feel Sipdey 3 let us all down. I don't if it was the weak dialog, the poor story, or just everything combined. While watching this I had a feeling like the director didn't care and just meshed it all together, to be honest, did Sam Raimi even direct this, because it doesn't feel like any of his previous stuff? There are some good things about Spidey 3, the visual FX were outstanding compared to 1 & 2, but that alone cannot save this mediocre story. The trailers made the black suit out to be such a great story line and in the film it is barely touched upon, and what was with the musical number? I mean seriously the whole jazz club routine was completely lame on every level.
While watching this I was hoping Sam would have brought us back to Spidey 2 with a little horror element like the kickin operating room scene of carnage. After seeing that in Spidey 2 I said to myself nothing can top this, this is Raimi at his best. I am sad to report I was right.
The villains are cookie cutter paint by numbers. Neither Venom or Sandman are given enough screen time to even care about them and when they do show up it is so quick and fast it is over before you blink, and would someone please tell James Franco to go to acting classes, god he was even more horrible here than in Spidey 1.
I am sorry to report that Spidey 3 was a let down, at least for me, but someone has to admit it. I honestly can't believe this film has a 7.0 rating when it doesn't deserve above a 3.
