Brilliant reboot.

Rating: 10/10 (4 July 2012)

Just because its a reboot to a trilogy that just came 10 years ago doesn't mean its going to suck horribly. As a matter of fact, this film was better than the original. Unlike the original, many things in this film are true to the comics, such as Gwen Stacy being Spiderman's first girlfriend, Spiderman having webshooters to shoot web off his wrist, and taking throughout the high school setting. If you're new to this and know about Raimi's Spiderman trilogy, you will find huge differences that were made to be closer to the comics. You won't have Mary Jane as the first girlfriend or Spiderman shooting web organically. Now, onto the film, this film has perhaps some of the best performances in comic book movies. Andrew Garfield ate as both Peter Parker and Spiderman, and I thought he was better than Tobey Maguire. Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans and Denis Leary's acting were fantastic and brilliant. The chemistry between Gwen and Peter is so natural and cute, more than the chemistry between Peter and Mary Jane in the original Spiderman. As for the plot, its a better origin story. Although the villain was a bit weak, I felt the Lizard is more interesting than Raimi's Green Goblin. That's all I've got to say, I would recommend this film to you. I gave it 10 stars out of 10.
