the amazing spider man

Rating: 8/10 (30 March 2014)

Spider-Man is the most beloved character in comic books because behind the mask and the swagger, there's Peter Parker, a sympathetic teen with girl troubles and family issues.
The recent Spider-Man trilogy directed by Sam Raimi and starring Tobey Maguire dutifully included the origin story about a boy who gets infected by a radioactive spider, but then the series grew freakishly large. By the multi villain spectacular "Spider-Man 3,""The Amazing Spider-Man," directed by Marc Web and starring Andrew Garfield, is not just a reboot — it's a rejuvenation. From the first image of sensory awakening to the final acceptance of adult responsibility, it pulses with the warm blood of a very human hero. Peter (Garfield) is abandoned by his scientist parents at age 7. He is raised in suburban New York City by his Aunt May (Sally Field) and Uncle Ben (manly-wise Martin Sheen). Peter is a budding photographer who is bullied by star athlete Flash Thompson (Chris Zylka, resurrecting memories of the obnoxious jocks in John Hughes movies) yet protected by Flash's brainy girlfriend, Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone). Peter learns that his father partnered with Dr. Curt Connors (Rhys Ifans) at Oscorp, and he talks his way into the company's genetics lab — where Gwen is a volunteer and Dr. Connors believes he can re-grow his missing arm with the formula that Peter's father hid. This art-directed movie is uncommonly smart about science and technology, but after nosy Peter is accidentally exposed to spider DNA and morphs into a web-spinning superhero, it really soars. His mastering of the physical and technical skills is thrilling,becomes a moral conflict and must make a leap of faith to accept his supernatural abilities
we all know that with great power comes with responsibility, but this new version of an old story amplifies both the power and the responsibility.costumed vigilante Peter is heading for a showdown with Dr. Connors' reptilian villain, he is also shyly romancing Gwen under the disapproving eyes of her cop father (Denis Leary).
The Amazing Spider-Man is almost the best Spider-Man movie. It has an incredible hero and an incredible villain living in a world that is close to reality. He is not yet professional to his own powers. He is a teenager who needs to be responsible. The drama is more effective in this film than the recent trilogy. Although I complain too much about the pacing, the depth of the story makes you think that awesome set pieces and perfect film making doesn't quite matter. Because it's a superhero film that cares more than just action. The action scenes are great but the mind blowing effect here is the heart and the man behind the mask
