Jonah Jameson was right! Spiderman is a turkey!

Rating: 1/10 (2 May 2014)

They spent a fortune and ended up with this web-slinging turkey. This is not just your average bad movie. This expensive monstrosity joins that rare club of the really, really expensive ($200 million) and really, really bad, right up there with "Cleopatra," "Pirates of the Caribbean," and "Waterworld." You know it's bad when you have an "action" movie in which the scrawny, goofy, lead actor (Andrew Garfield) spends more time sniveling and moaning and crying and blubbering than the leading lady (Emma Stone) and supporting actress (Sally Field) combined. You know it's bad when you squirm in your seat every time the lead actor contorts his face into another forced attempt to convey noble suffering. You know it's bad when the poor schmuck who's destined to become one of the lead villains climbs precariously over a tank of swarming electric eels, and you squirm in your seat again waiting for him to fall in and change into...wait for it..."Electro." A hole in the head is what you need this movie like.
