Decent movie.

Rating: 5/10 (27 May 2014)

I watched this movie on opening day, unfortunately it's not amazing as the title states. I have a few quips about this movie that I just didn't like.
1. Peter Parker is suppose to be a genius, unfortunately for us, the only thing Andrew Garfield shows us he is good at is reading someone else's research and citing it verbatim(Amazing Spider-Man). Here in this movie, he forgets the basic concept of electricity.
2. Spider-Man's quips were always sarcastic yet witty. Unfortunately Andrew Garfield's jokes comments off as a douche.
3. Electro is an electrical engineer here, yet his genius is never shown. We only get to see his mental illness, while the ending fight was decent it never wowed me.
4. Aleksei Systevich is suppose to be an intimidating strong force. The only thing that the Aleksei Systevich got right in this movie is the dimwittedness. I do not like the fact that he uses a large mechanical suit to be "The Rhino", meaning that if anyone else can get their hands on their suit they can be the rhino.
5. Harry Osborn, played by such a hipster douche, I rather take james Franco with his lazy eye. Again, the director gets it wrong. Harry is supposed to be using goblin serum, in here, they make it a hereditary disease that he becomes a goblin? Not only that, but his strength comes from Spider Venom?
The movie is decent, is it worth the price of admission? I say not, but if you can go see it at a discount theatre like I did, then yes it's worth the $5 and 2 hours out of your life. There's just so many things wrong with this movie that I didn't enjoy, the only thing they got right was the romance between Gwen Stacy and Peter Parker, which was a lot better than the romance between Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson from the Tobey version, but that's not Tobeys or the Sam Raimis fault, that was Kirstens, she made it very public that she did not enjoy the role and didn't want the role.
