Please let there be a 4th

Rating: 7/10 (26 June 2007)

7/10 stars for me is bad for a Spiderman movie. I would give the 1st and 2nd ones 8 and 9 stars. Don't get me wrong this is a good movie by itself. But compared to the previous installments, it just doesn't have that extra something that made the other ones great. Maybe it was too much talking not enough action. Adding some drama is great, especially when the drama is backstabbing and betrayal, but there wasn't a great action scene. The first had the great Parade and bridge scene, the second had the train scene, the bank scene (which still gives me chills seeing an old woman falling off a building only to be saved seconds before) and the final dock scene. Compared to these, the Harry vs. Peter scene and the construction sight just don't cut it. And just like the second, there is a scene of awkward walking and facial expressions that is just unbearable. This is a good movie no doubt, but it leaves us dangling for a 4th installment.
