A weak effort by all involved

Rating: 3/10 (9 May 2007)

The first two Spiderman films, the second especially encapsulated everything that a superhero film should. Drama, excitement, incredible action scenes, good triumphing over adversity and so on. The third failed on all of these levels. Firstly it took ages to get going and was overly sentimental, secondly it had too many villains and as a result failed to develop any of them fully, thirdly the action scenes were poorly choreographed and confusing, fourthly...you get the picture.
It seems as though Raimi wanted to include as much as possible in as short amount of time as possible which resulted in glaring inconsistencies, weak character development and many unexplained occurrences. However all, yes all of these things stand pale in inadequateness when compared to the strutting "emo" Peter Parker, which, was the moment when I utterly gave up on the film.
Someone please annihilate this film from existence and do it again...please.
