Umm...

Rating: 4/10 (11 July 2017)

So after only 2 Amazing Spidermans in both 2012 & 2014 respectively, we get yet another remake of this hero (this time with a change... or more...!), which since the 2 previous remakes, has been ruined even further with, political correctness, drastic changes & worse than before plot with muddied elements of every caliber!
Now to start, I didn't find this film as bad as I thought, though my criticisms & issues were met after viewing which still explains why I'm giving this film a low rating, not a "hated it" rating.
The film is about Peter Parker who is spider man, basically, though this film is far different from what you expect from the previous film & films of course of both Marvel & in general of the same starting point (not to mention in books & comics), especially the Tobey Maguire original.
In this film, Peter is already Spiderman & in the previous Avengers film was seen briefly, thereby this film here coming to light. But there's a different story-line & of course Tony Stark is in it, which to me muddies the waters quite a bit as it isn't a stand alone Spiderman film, but an Avengers film slash Spiderman Film. It really has reached the limit & will do if & when the sequel gets made!
The character of spiderman is socially awkward & to be fair a tiny bit annoying. Not to mention the jokes, the run time, the traits of spiderman which have gone right out the window & of course the political correctness, all of the above have diluted a once great franchise!
Spiderman not shooting webs "directly" from his wrists annoyed me in the Amazing Spiderman Films, but even more so here! Anyone & I mean, "anyone" could or can be spiderman, whats the point in making Iron Man like gadgets if Spiderman has powers? It makes no sense, not to mention the overkill in humour in which it was really overused & made the tone a little too light hearted & well just stupid!
The political correctness with the characters was annoying, MJ & Liz, don't even get me started...! Story-line... nothing special & pretty tame, no life saving, keeping the jokes at bay until needed, too gimmicky & hard to take serious & well just dumb in a lot of places!
The plot holes too, pfft! But...! On the other hand, the villain was cool, some great visuals & a few little laughs here & there & I mean little & few & far between! But sadly, the film just didn't cut it for me! It seems now films like this can't be simple & straight to the point, they have to be riddled with plot holes, bad/complex/annoying/dragged out story-line, annoying characters, politically correct characters, damn I could go on!
4/10 Watch the Originals of Tobey Maguire! They're the best & always will be better!
