Amazing Reboot

Rating: 10/10 (3 July 2012)

(No spoilers in this review!!) "The Amazing Spider-Man" was fantastic and well written. I enjoyed it much more than the past 3 films for a couple reasons. 1. This new series is much grittier and more realistic than the past series. I love Andrew Garfield as both Spider-Man and Peter Parker. He is much more of a kid- like character like Peter should be. I also enjoyed how they brought back the classic web shooters and how they adapted them. Now a lot of people are giving this movie bad rating because they say they have seen this movie before in the past series. There are certain principals that you have to go by to make it a spider-man film. For instance, Peter has to get bit by a spider. Uncle Ben has to die. Without those it wouldn't be a Spider-Man flick. This origin is, i would say, more fun and relatable. I'm looking forward to more Spider-Man films in this series.
