Why?

Rating: 6/10 (10 August 2007)

I love the spiderman movies. The first 2 where very good movies so when Spiderman 3 was announced I couldn't wait for it to premiere.When I first saw the teaser trailer summer of 2006 I was ecstatic. Then after watching the new full trailers I was even more excited, it looked so good. I loved the idea of Venom as the baddie. I was telling people days before the movie came out how it was gonna be the best movie ever. Then Friday night I saw it. And was bitterly disappointed. First of all the special effects were awesome especially Venom and Sandman. Unfortunately just about everything else that made the first 2 shine weren't in this movie. Tobey was given horrible, campy lines as Peter Parker and the whole dark side, a good idea in theory was ruined by bad dialog. Even what happened between him and Harry just wasn't as good as the trailers made it out to be. Venom was under developed and wasn't scary or bad enough as he should have been.
This movie was a perfect example of over hype. Sadly the spiderman I loved was not this movie.
