Fresh approach

Rating: 7/10 (29 March 2015)

I like this new version of Spiderman. The story was good, the movie was entertaining. Seeing it left me with a positive feeling. There are things that seemed more logical than in the first movie:

Father disappearing because he found the mutation formula - Spider-man does not produce all the webs himself, but has a device for it. Imagine from where would Spider-man produce thousands of meters of web, if that must come from inside him...? - He is just a high-school kid, with desire to show off. - He is not bullet proof, and is not immune to damage. He can get hurt.

There are some exaggerated scenes, and some flaws in the script/making.

The slam-dunk scene is way exaggerated. Imagine doing that in your highschool gym, and not getting on the first page of your newspaper: Freak flies over basket court! - The "magical" equation contains an expression of the form log(g exp(something)). This is all they could come up with. Somme sigma, a pi, an exp and a log. They didn't bother seeing that the log and exp cancel... Do us all, who know a little math, a favor, and if you want to write a complicated formula, find a scientist and get a really complicated one. - Even if in this movie Spiderman gets hurt, the battles he has with the lizard-guy are way off balance, and if the lizard guy was such "animalistic" as portrayed, Spider-man would not have survived their first encounter. - They could have finished off the lizard with the nitrogen. Instead, they let it regenerate... so it could kill someone at the end. As far as I know, lizards cannot regenerate their heads.

This movie is not perfect, but it is entertaining, and that's the point.
