Incredible in all genres. Great action, romance, drama, and effects.

Rating: 10/10 (7 July 2012)

the original Spiderman series really set the bar for superhero movies. Some people say the dark knight raised it. The Amazing Spiderman rips the bar off and ate it for breakfast. The movie is unbelievably fantastic from start to finish. The setups are not distracting, but not overlooked either. They tie in to later events, and really pull you into the story. There is never a dull moment, with action, suspense, romance, or breathtaking visual images in every scene. I went to the theater expecting a decent flick, one that might think of rivaling the original, as a nice set-up to the dark night rises in a few weeks. My mind was completely blown, and now I'm wondering if batman better watch his back. The Dark Knight really changed the way people looked at superheros, and The Avengers further cemented that belief, but The Amazing Spiderman proves that it can definitely contest those two. The Dark Knight Rises better watch its back, because The Amazing Spiderman takes viewers for an exciting ride, and believe it or not, really has a chance of being the blockbuster of the summer.
