The Pros and Cons, May not contain Spoilers after all.

Rating: 7/10 (17 August 2012)

Now, you see that I have seen many reviews for this movie on the website, it's either you hate it or you don't. Then there are some exceptional reviewers who do indeed mention the pros and cons of this movie. For example, obviously everyone here has expected that Spiderman 4 should have came out, but it didn't. Instead, the producers decided to create a reboot of Spiderman, therefore discontinuing the 10 years about 8-9 years of Samuel's work. Instead, and ironically, they hired Marc Webb to film this new "amazing Spiderman" which is supposed to grab viewers from all over the world to see what today's technology can do opposed to 10 years ago, when the first actual Spiderman movie came out.
The Amazing Spiderman does not possess true emotion that you can find in some movies, yet it does have a slight corny effect on what you predict is going to happen next. It is understandable that you may not like this new movie at all, for people have different opinions on what types of movies they prefer and what they would expect from a 5-year break. Yes, this movie doesn't play off your emotions as they would from perhaps a different movie, but I suppose that this movie is a combination of action and romance, but focusing a little bit more on the action part of it's behalf. The most saddening moment that DID play off my emotions slightly was when a tragedy happened that also happened in the original Spiderman.
The Amazing Spiderman is obviously based on the original first Spiderman film if you have seen it. The trailer however, conceals the fact that this is a reboot. Also, the trailer focuses mainly on the fact that of Peter Parker's parents, which it does a little but it's not the main focus of the movie. Apparently, the reviewers on this title are particularly NOT happy with the trailers ripping them off on the whole point of this little reboot. Honestly, if kids were watching this movie, and they saw the trailer, they might have thought that this wasn't a reboot and that they only switched the actors to make it seem for whatever reason they had to replace the original cast members.
I am not a very good critic. In fact, this is my first one. But this movie does contain a sense of sadness, romance, uplifting relief, and action-packed adrenaline. There are some scenes that remain calm at first but then jump right out at you, but it should be predictable enough to not make you jump in your seat. This movie does fill in gaps, and has an insensible amount of time, trying not to rush but in MY point of view, cannot replace the interesting curiosity I held for the first movie. This version of the Spiderman however, does contain more action but less romance (of course from my view) than the original.
However, based on how I view it, it may not appeal to all viewers, but it probably can make a summer favorite of a little 10-13 year old kid.
