Another sequel of an unnecessary reboot!

Rating: 6/10 (5 August 2014)

Firstly this entire reboot was unnecessary! I mean, we were introduced to Spider- man by Sam Raimi in 2002. Tobey as Spider man, Kirsten as Mary Jane and so on. These characters and their roles were etched in our memory for a decade! 10 freaking years we could only relate to these people and we were happy.
Now in 2012, they decided to reboot the entire franchise. Bloody same story with different actors! Whats the f**king point. Peter is bitten by spider, his life before and after being Spider man, his love life, his struggles with the same, relation with Uncle Ben and Aunt May, everything is the same .. but with different actors. Again.. whats the f**king point ?
No doubt Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone (as Gwen Stacy) have done a good job but we tend to draw comparisons with the earlier franchise, especially when so many of the aforementioned situations are the same.
Okay, now coming back to this movie. This is strictly a one-time watch movie. I didn't have much expectations anyway but I was still a bit disappointed by a few things.
1. The transformation of the villain Electro was done in a bit of hurry. One moment he idolizes Spider man and next moment he hates him because he forgot his name! WTF. They should have developed his villainy character a bit. It was not at all convincing.
2. Some of the things were happening for the sake of happening. It seriously lacked depth.
3. Killing off the main actress and love interest of Spidey so that they can introduce another actress (most probably Mary Jane) in the next sequel, was a big turn off
4. Some Characters and transformation of both villains are woefully under- developed
However, the chemistry between Spidey and Gwen was good and some of the action sequences are pretty good. Spidey has been shown as having some sense of humor and has smart and funny one-liners. That was also welcoming
