A romantic end to Spiderman trio!

Rating: 5/10 (20 May 2007)

In Spiderman-I Peter Parker comes to term with his power and responsibility that comes along with it.
In Spiderman-II Peter Parker realizes that the sacrifices he would have to make to bear the responsibility of being a spiderman.
In Spiderman-III Peter Parker comes to realize how difficult is to propose to the one u love and ...
Yes, this pretty much sums up Spiderman-III. The director tried the tried, tested and abused route of intertwining a love story into action movie aka Titanic, and ended up sinking the ship of Spiderman.
Probably, one more reason for sinking of Spiderman ship has to do with the pace of the movie. One gets the feeling that director was really in rush of getting Spiderman-3 released in the theatres. All the actions sequences were looking like being played in fast-forward, may be just to cover up, the similarlity to the action scenes in the predecessors.
While the director speeds up the action sequences, he does'nt do any editing of the useless repeated melodromatic moments in the movie. Mary Jane keeps on struggling with her emotions throughout the movie, and for no apparent reason Peter Parker is not able to sense that.
If the director really wanted to make an 2:30 hour epic, then he probably would have needed some more songs from Kirsten Dunst, or probably Shakira thrown in for an item number. Hollywood, can keep on critising Bollywood movies for their length, but I would still prefer a Bollywood masala movie with few item numbers throw in, rather than this 2:30 hour drag with Kirsten Dunst Opera !!!
