Different, Witty, Classy ........but lacks somewhat emotionally

Rating: 8/10 (29 June 2012)

Well, This movie surely has a charm of its own & has the potential to be one of the biggest blockbusters this year. The reboot has been made very cleverly to make audience feel a complete different watching experience. Mark Webb's spider-man is witty, thoughtful, he does not take everything too seriously while Sam Raimi's spider-man was intense, dreamy about Marry Jane (MJ), basically he seemed like a poor guy who had nobody to help. At least the portrayal of the character was like that but in Mark Webb's version he seems more confident & cool.
Despite all that has been said, it looks like the makers of this film has deliberately chosen to diverge from plot situations that were present in the former version. In fact it had helped in building of characters but here, TAS(the amazing spider-man)lacks in this aspect. Moreover, it also lacks in the background score. I would not say that it should have been made in exact same way Raimi had made it but TAS is weak in its emotional quotient. Forgive me for comparing it to Raimi's version over and over again but Raimi's less than 2 hrs long film was more dramatic than this more than 2 hrs long film. Although TAS preserves spider-man's integrity and has the full potential to be made into a franchise.
This movie(TAS) was a lot fast paced and therefore it didn't give too much time to audiences to sit back and relate to the characters. But, a big thumbs up for its wittiness, humor, CGI, action. What it lacks is emotion which was a result of avoidance of using basic plot details for the fear of being compared to 2002 Spider-man. So, watch this movie. It will surely surprise you at times but don't go with a certain mindset. Also, This movie does't have a conventional ending which i liked the most. Spider-man comic fans will surely like The Amazing Spiderman over Spider-man as this version is more close to the comics strictly in terms of the character Spiderman that is usually shown.
