Nobody understands the dynamics, material, relationships, and character traits of our fabled wall-crawler as well as Director, Marc Webb, and all subsequent cinematic versions of Spider-Man should be churned out by nobody else but Webb and his keen visionary skills. Like an astute artisan, he seamlessly weaves together a stupendous plot replete with equal amounts of action, drama, emotions, romance, and mystery, to dish out one of the most enthralling summer blockbusters that memory can serve. Lending huge gravitas to Webb's opulent vision are the brilliant performances from Garfield, Stone, Foxx, DeHaan, along with terrific editing ,cinematography, and some of the most amazing visual effect and CGI rendered on screen.
If you thought that Webb's first cinematic rendition of Spidey was head and shoulder above Raimi's trilogy, then his latest film knocks all three of Raimi's mildly entertaining but poorly adapted movies right out of the park. Those who don't agree with this reboot of Spider-Man, need to view both the films against their predecessors and then perform a little research by way of the source material from the comics and the classic animated series, to see for themselves which versions stack up better against each other. Casual, impassive viewers who might feel that this would constitute as a waste time just for the sake of a film, would be quicker and more capable at differentiating between which is the better made franchise.
