Big, bold and shallow

Rating: 6/10 (27 April 2014)

Bigger, bolder or just banal?
In this latest instalment the man insect is facing a corrupt giant corporation where as a result of their recklessness and cover up an employee is turned into some sort of electricity monster.
Since the box office results justify this, the makers continue on the theme of turning a kind, gentle, ordinary human being into a villain which Spiderman has got to face, so some inventiveness in the storyline would have been appreciated. In addition to this and in order to spice up the story a bit our hero has to come to terms whether his relationship with the girl he loves is viable or to terminate it so that he can protect her.
Aside from the rather unsophisticated storyline, the spectacle will not disappoint. It is both bold and ambitious with spectacular effects giving some grand action scenes.
When I went to the big screen, I went to see some eye popping action and to a satisfying extent, this is what I got, so I can slightly overlook its faults.
