Spider-Man 3 was GOOD,but not GREAT.

Rating: 6/10 (7 May 2007)

WOW,this movie was not what I expected when my friends & I went to the midnight release at 12:05am at my local theater. Iam a BIG comic book fan, I have ALOTS of comics which includes SPIDEY,XMEN,HULK,SUPERMAN and few more SOooOO I know few things about the DC/MARVEL UNIVERSE. I'vie seen all the comic book movies so far and now saw SPIDER-MAN 3.
This movie is GOOD but like my TITLE said's its not GREAT. HERES WHY: The starts off slow but with 20 minutes it picks up with NEW GOBLIN chasing PETER on his bike which ends up being a pretty GREAT FIGHT SCENE between the two while PETER was on his way to pop the question to MJ. Iam really happy that FINALLY HARRY OSBORN has turn to the dark-side this time around. I'vie been waiting for HARRY go evil every since this SPM 1 ended which we ALL knew that it was gonna happen sooner or later.
JAMES FRANCO did an AMAZING job as HARRY, in my opinion EVERY scene with HARRY & PETER fighting or getting into a argument's was the best parts of the movie. But then HARRY hits his head on a pipe while chasing PETER and gets short-term AMNESIA and forgets PETER is SPIDEY plus he no longer blames PETER for his father's death. But later on he remembers EVERYTHING and once again going after PETER and his love ones.
I agree with everyone else that by having 4 villains(venom,sandman,new goblin,himself) is way to much. I guess SAM RAIMA never saw BATMAN & ROBIN. I like SANDMAN in the comics but he does not belong in this movie,RAIMI said in a interview that he wanted to keep VENOM out and place him in SPM4 but the fans demanded him to be in SP3. It should'vie been the other way around,put SANDMAN story in 4 and keep VENOM with GOBLIN story in 3. SANDMAN just wants $ to save his daughter and he killed UNCLE BEN which is the DUMBEST thing I have ever heard,saw,and read. WHY would you change SPIDEY'S ORGIN like that while it work so well in the comics and IN SPM1. Makes no sense.
Venom in the movie was OK. TOPHER GRACE did a GOOD job as EDDIE BROCK/VENOM. But VENOM should have had MORE FACE TIME,MORE STORY,MORE FIGHT SCENES,MORE EVERYTHING. My BIGGEST PROMBLE with VENOM in 3 is that WHILE EDDIE is VENOM his voice does not change! VENOM sounds just like EDDIE. WTF??? VENOM SHOULD SOUND LIKE A MONSTER,not a normal man. HECK,even in the cartoon VENOM voice changes and sounds more like a beast then the film venison. ANOTHER THING, even in the comics for VENOM the writer changes the letters in the WORDBALLOONS to a more darker/crooked color to express the voice change. The do it for cartoons and comic books but don't from the film? WHAT?
THEN there's the EVIL PETER with BANGS! GOOD PETER=NO BANGS. Every time I saw EVIL BANGS PETER I LAUGH! The whole theater laugh,even little baby's giggle! I know they wanted to change PETERS look while as EVIL PETER,but when you look at him your not scared,your just laughing. On the bright side at least they didn't make PETER wear EYESHADOW as EVIL PETER.
SPIDERMAN takes his mask off A lot in this movie,as he does in 1 & 2. LOOK SAN RAMIM,we all know TOBEY MAGUIRE is SPIDEY but we didn't need to see PETER PAKER FOR 80% of the movie. We wanted to see SPIDERMAN with his mask ON! GRANTED SPIDERMAN takes his mask off a lot in the comics BUT like this movie. IT LIKE EVERY 10 SECONDS.
I don't even want to get started on the dancing parts. ALL I got to say about that is WTF!!!
IN THE END SPIDERMAN 3 is all that bad BUT not all that GOOD either. I'll buy it on DVD when it comes out but I have a QUESTION FOR SAM RAIMI if he ever reads this:YOU EVER HEAR THAT OLD SAYING,"SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST?" What? NO....Oh thats what I thought. <:
