Another mediocre marvel movie

Rating: 5/10 (5 July 2012)

Saw this Spiderman reboot because my daughters were interested. Frankly I had enough with Spidey III. Probably that was because I never could get into Tobey McQuire as Peter Parker nor Kristen Dunst as annoying Mary Jane. Of course this Spiderman was suppose to be different, darker, like Batman (which by the way worked for the first movie and only worked for the second because of the brilliant acting of the Late Heath Ledger). Well it was darker and gave somewhat more of an emotional impact but that was only when we saw Peter Parker. Unfortunately the Spidey bits were the same old web-slinger, endless fight, guy getting hurt nonsense. I do have to say that I liked this new guy better than McQuire. I also think the banter between Martin Sheen (who I miss in movies) and Sally Fields was nice but poor Sally was at a disadvantage and I really didn't care for her as Aunt Mae. The villain was okay and Dennis Leary is always great. I also have to say that Emma Stone got luck, as they didn't give her the stupid female role, Gwen was actually smart, yeah.
Now here's the *Spoiler Alert* and I have never written a Spoiler in my life but I am just sick and tired of Spidey having to reveal himself. He's suppose to have a secret identity people, well if he let's everyone know who he is it's no longer a secret. So can we just cute it out already.
It is a movie that will make big money for a few days and be quickly forgotten like most of the summer films. But we know that they'll do a sequel now don't we.
