The Worst Hype:Crappy Movie ratio ever witnessed

Rating: 6/10 (7 May 2007)

Okay. First I'd like to start by saying, I gave this movie a 6/10 only because the action sequences were good, sometimes even great. Secondly, the story and acting get a 0/10.
Okay. First things first, the action. The action was extremely good even though sometimes it seemed like graphically it wasn't as well done as the second movie. The only problem about the action sequences is how scarce they were. The movie was like 30 mins of nothing, 5 mins of action, 40 mins of nothing, 6 mins of action, you get the idea.
Second things second, the acting in this movie was just terrible. I blame most of it on the directing and writers though. Since when does Peter Parker turn into an emo kiddie when he gets the symbiote? Since when is Eddie Brock some 130lbs guy? He's supposed to be built, 2-3x more then spiderman in fact. It's too bad though, because Topher did a pretty good job on the acting side of things. Especially in comparison with other actors in the movie like Dunst(who was terrible) and Tobie Maguire (who spent most of the movie crying). As stated above, bad writing and even worse directing. Never once heard the name "Venom" in the movie either. No character "venom" was ever really established, and he died. (Since when is venom a character Spider kills moments after meeting?). So good job to the writers for killing off one of spidermans biggest arch enemies. Why did it need endless dialogue of bs with Gwen Stacey and such? What was the point of Gwen Stacey? She was supposed to be Peters first girl friend, so why even go down that road? And also, knowing full well MJ was there, why would peter have kissed Gwen Stacey? Especially considering he was NOT under control of the symbiote yet, not even close to.
Beefs with the movie:
1) Venoms death 2) Sandman lives 3) Emo movie in general 4) Mostly dialogue, no action 5) Dialogue wasn't even good, so may as well have put nonstop action 6) Green Goblin befriends Spidey? WTF 7) Green Goblin dies like a pussy, as spidermans friend. 8) The cheesy way they tried to end the 3rd movie like the 1st 9) Dunsts acting got progressively worse with each movie 10) The way you could CLEARLY tell it wasn't Kirsten Dunsts voice when she was singing. (Obviously it wasn't, but come on. It was pretty obvious, the singers voice sounded nothing like her) 11) Beef with the fact that there are so many beefs I forgot some of them.
Either way, this movie is not worth going to see in theaters. If your a spiderman fan, you have to see it. But just rent it, no need to spend good hard earned money at the theaters for this dud.
