movie was decent

Rating: 5/10 (4 July 2012)

I really appreciated the work done with this. All of the graphic enhancements are very nice. It's better than the originals with Sam Raimi, but I think there could have been a more intricate plot with better characters. Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone did well, Denis Leary was very Denis Leary-esque. So, not sure how I feel about that. Rhys Ifans was stellar, but let that go rather quickly. Martin Sheen was great for the short time he was in it, Sally Field was very reserved. I guess Aunt May always was though. I wish Peter Parkers' parents had greater roles. However, still hard for me to keep my eyes open. I was out about 90 mins in, I woke up at the climactic parts and still couldn't hang, just not fascinating enough. For me, overall lacking in "suspension of disbelief" for Marvel, I had more fun in Avengers. I once again woke up for the end and was not thrilled. Please, someone, let me know if I am being too quick to judge.
