Spiderman does NOT cry!

Rating: 4/10 (12 May 2007)

Spiderman or any other superhero doesn't CRY! Spiderman was weeping at least 3 times in this movie. That's at least 3 times more than he should have.
With all the weeping and angst over the girl's career and "putting the wife ahead of the husband" I didn't know what movie I was in. If this was a comic book on the stands the title would have been "SPIDERMAN FACES HIS 3 WORST FOES, (and his girlfriend has troubles too).
I'm tired of comic book movies taking great efforts to bring the girls into the club. I know that 50% of audiences are women. But what if "chick-flicks" were attendant to the male desires? There would be several "boob shots" and at least two bareknuckle boxing scenes in every chick flick. I think I might like "Where the Heart Is" or "The Holiday" if this were the case.
This movie sucked. I took my 6-year-old and he was flipping out of his seat almost every 5 minutes. "I'm Bored!" "This is a kissing movie!" If they chopped every scene with Mary Jane by 15 minutes, this would have been a decent flick, a "comic book" flick.
Sandman was enough bathos for this flick. Just keep the emotional depth between him and his daughter. That's enough depth for a comic book.
