I'd like to call it "The Spectacular Spider-Man" has some flaws, but it's still a great film on it's own.

Rating: 9/10 (26 July 2012)

Reboot can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on the situation. For Batman, we received from Christopher Nolan without a doubt the greatest Super Hero trilogy ever, With Clash of the Titans, not really. But what about our Friendly Neighborhood? well with the conclusion of the 3rd film, the details of the villains and Sam Raimi stepping back from the project makes sense for Sony to reboot rather then making a fourth Installment of the Raimi trilogy.
Well now we have the The Amazing Spider-Man reboot finally upon us. Is it really Amazing, It's damn close to it. The thing that works about the film is bringing parts of the comic to life, one of them being Peter Parkers first love Gwen Stacy to the big screen rather then Mary Jane Watson, The actual Timeline rather then the popularity of the characters. Comparing to Christopher Nolan's Batman films which have a politics theme to it, The Amazing Spider-Man lives within the world of Biochemistry and digs more the background behind Peter Parker like never before. Peter Parker who is portrayed by "The Social Networks" star Andrew Garfield and "Easy A" star Emma Stone put their heart into the character's Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy, this is one of the strongest points of the movie, and the rest of the cast is also just as strong as the protagonists, Sally Wield actual surprised me as Aunt May, so is Dennis Leary portrayal to Captain Stacy is also an incredible achievement from this cast, and Rhys Ifans portrayal as the antagonist Dr Connors (The Lizard) which for some moments demonstrates this two personalities in one person, similar to what we seen in Norman Osborn from the Spidey film of 2002.
The transformation of Peter Parker to Spider Man, is also quite well filmed especially when you see him trying to control his powers, it's both interesting, intense and comical. And it's not only when he was bitten by the Radioactive spider, but also how he starts to fight crimes, his web slinging practice, the process of his costume creation which is also very well detailed.
Although the film was made for 3D, it does take some good advantages and some creative steps that make use for the character Spider-Man, one of my favorite moments was entering in first person view during the web slinging which collaborated with the films use of the 3D makes you feel that you were inside of the mind of Spider-Man, the problem though they're are very few moments of these which is pity because they put a creative use for the character Spider-Man in a 3D film.
Some of the issues of the film though concern with the film is probable the fact that it feels slow at points, that's not saying that the film is slow in action, but how the Origin of Spider-Man does take place quite a period before he starts his life as Spider-Man. also is the fact that they're are some plot points that really aren't resolved in the film but it makes you feel that it will be answered for a sequel. Besides that there are some changes that are very different from the comics and the Raimi films, however it's not really an issue at all, because It's a reboot and takes liberty to do what could be interesting points, one of them is how Peter is inspired by creating the Spider-Man mask.
The film even though it's quite serious and focuses the darkness of Peter Parker, it also has some enjoyable humor that is straight from the Spider-Man comics.
I know at this moment, people are more interested in watching The Dark Knight Rises, however The Amazing Spider-Man is still a spectacular adventure and serves as an excellent reboot, despite some flaws, Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield should be praised for what they both have done in the film, they are one of the strongest points of the film along with the solid cast, If you have a chance to watch this Spectacular film then I would highly recommend this movie. I seriously can't wait for a sequel.
