a waste of time and money

Rating: 1/10 (21 May 2007)

being a fan of the first two spiderman movies i couldn't wait to see the third. when i finally did i couldn't believe what i just saw. i am willing to say that the hulk was a hair away from being a better movie(sorry hulk fans but that was a really bad movie). sadly the writers and directors dropped the ball. beside the sappy chick flick elements the took up the entire movie, the fight scenes that we've all come to love in the series just weren't there (well they were, but in 2 minute spurts every 30 or so minutes). sadly the best part of the movie was the banter between j.j. jameson and his secretary in the beginning of the movie but is still a forgettable moment. while the hero that gets the girl in the end is always a good thing in a superhero movie in this case the troubles between parker and m.j. just got annoying. you couldn't help but not care. the relationship between harry and parker was not fully explored as well as it could have been. sorry to say but there are nothing but holes in every single character.
i will however admit the special effects were amazing, but a movie cannot be based on it's effects. it still has to have a solid or a reminisce of a good story.
i have never wanted to walk out of a movie, but came really close on this one, in hopes that the final fight would save the movie(guess what? it didn't). you are better off waiting for the fx premiere to see this but if you must see it save your money and rent it from blockbuster.
