The 'Amazing' Spiderman and nothing less!

Rating: 10/10 (3 July 2012)

This movie was a very special movie for me, because I grew up on the character Spiderman. I was very emotionally tied to the film and I held back tears at the end from how good it actually was.
This movie does a great job of establishing the many things that create Peter Parker as a whole without making it too cheesy. They incorporated Peter's passion of photography, his desire for vengeance of Uncle Ben's death, his love for Aunt May, his crush on Gwen Stacey, his loser status in school. One of the best things about the film was that even though it was a Superhero movie there was real emotional attachment and each character had their own story. This movie did, by far, the best job out of all of the superhero movies to create an actual story where the protagonist wasn't someone you just idolized but someone that you understood. Then you add the classic action element and love subplot and you get this amazing movie. I will be one of the first to admit that I was not that excited when they said they were rebooting the series but after watching this movie I can tell you that it was one of the best movies of the year and if you have not seen it yet, whether you like Spiderman or not, you need to go out of your way to watch it!
