Decent, but alas a letdown.

Oh Spiderman, I really wanted to like you. And overall, I did. But the few glitches and problems that fluttered throughout the movie were enough to dampen my experience in the movie theater while viewing the film. The action sequences were fantastic. Fast paced, wild, acrobatic, everything that enhaces an action scene. But...the acting. Every time Harry Osbourne opened his mouth I wanted to shoot myself. And Kirsten Dunst singing? C'mon, did NOT need that. Plus the entire middle of the movie with Peter supposedly becoming "evil". Evil? If you call emo piano playing swing dancing badasses evil, then sure. And I'm sorry but I couldn't help but laugh after seeing Topher Grace with fangs. But although these flaws I complain about make it seem like the movie was not at all enjoyable to me, it's not true. I liked it's just a little less overall cheese out of the movie would really have made this a less laughable film and another good entry to the Spiderman series.
