== Premise ==
Following the events of Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker has become a cultural phenomenon as Spider-Man, but he still has to learn teamwork when a new threat unleashed by Hydra puts New York at risk. Peter must work alongside Tony Stark / Iron Man and Dr. Bruce Banner / Hulk to defeat the forces of Hydra, currently led by the mischievous mad scientist known as the Tinkerer and his personal super-soldier assassin: the Winter Wolf.
== Plot ==
Following his battles against Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus, Spider-Man has become a cultural phenomenon and a respected figure in New York City. And people of New York are going for votes if he either should or not join the Avengers. Having grown tired of his former overbearing boss J. Jonah Jameson's increasingly arrogant behavior (which is putting Daily Bugle's reputation and popularity at risk), Peter Parker quits his former job as free lance photographer and joins the New York Police Department (where he meets fellow worker Wanda Maximoff) as a Detective, Spy and Private Investigator under the supervision of colonel James Rhodes. 
While he is pleased with his new level of life, Peter still has trouble associating with his best friend Harry Osborn (who previously learned of his secret as Spider-Man and still believes he was responsible for murdering his father Norman). One night, Peter is sent by Captain George Stacy to locate Dr. Bruce Banner, who (despite being treated as a hero by public for his alliance and service with the Avengers) is still hiding from the military forces allied to General Thaddeus Ross, who still believes that Banner is a criminal fugitive who needs containment.
After tracing some useful clues, Peter is successful in tracking and locating Banner, but right when he is about to grant him shelter within the N.Y.P.D., Peter is attacked by Harry, who had enhanced himself with the same serum and equipment of his father's Green Goblin persona. Just as Harry gets close of killing Peter after a brutal fight, Banner gets agitated by the situation enough to transform into the Hulk and badly injures Harry. But before he can finish him off, Hulk is halted by the incoming Natasha Romanoff and Betty Ross, who calm him down enough to revert him back to Banner. Harry is taken to custody by the N.Y.P.D. officers, who also happen to be working for S.H.I.E.L.D. under the supervision of Maria Hill and Nick Fury, as Wanda (who happens to be a meta-human with telekinetic and telepathic abilities) is assigned to keep Harry in check and Peter is warned by Fury (who is aware of Peter's secret as Spider-Man) that a new threat is coming and convinced that, despite having mastered his senses as a hero, he must still learn teamwork.
Next day, Peter visits his sweetheart Mary Jane Watson, who had also gotten a new job as a high-tech prodigy working at Stark Industries under the mentorship of Tony Stark, who is currently acting as a teacher for new science prodigies as a new responsibility he carries as the Iron Man. Shortly after enjoying himself with Mary Jane in the Stark Expo, Peter ends up having a battle with an invading Hydra squad led by a new masked super-soldier assassin called the Winter Wolf. Peter (as Spider-Man) ends up teaming up with Stark (as Iron Man) to defeat the mercenaries, forcing the Winter Wolf to retreat. Taking the forces of Hydra as the threat Fury warned him about, Parker and Stark decide to work together to find more clues.
Meanwhile, Harry is in a cell trying to convince the authorities of Spider-Man's 'murder of his father' until Wanda shows him numerous visions of Norman's past, including his transformation into the Goblin, his attempt against Mary Jane's life and finally, his suicide. Realizing in horror about the monster his father turned out to be and accepting the truth, the guild-ridden Harry decides to take the responsibility of Norman's crimes. While searching for clues about Hydra's plans in a ravaged facility, Parker and Stark end up learning who the mastermind is: Professor Phineas Mason, a rogue scientist only referred to as "the Tinkerer", who plans to recreate the Winter Soldier program with the aid of the Winter Wolf. Just then, they are attacked by Wolf-like monsters created by Hydra. The two are unexpectedly aided by Mary Jane, who had equipped herself with the Iron Spider armor. The trio is again attacked by Winter Wolf until he inexplicably relents after seeing Mary Jane with Parker and Stark, causing him to retreat.
Suspicious of the Winter Wolf's identity, Parker and Stark consult Banner, who reveals that General Ross and his Hulkbusters are after him because of the classified files he stole. The files reveal that the Hulkbusters are also involved with Hydra and Banner plans to expose them, not only to keep himself free from Ross' persecution, but also to insure humans will not become the monster he worked hard to control. Suddenly, the trio ends up having a vision of a dystopian post-apocalyptic Earth in the future, which will occur because of the Hulkbusters and with the Tinkerer still vowing to maintain law and order with Hydra ruling over all. They are also warned by an futuristic time traveler of a threat which is coming and states that "J. Jonah Jameson is the key!". Followed by Romanoff, Parker sneaks into the Daily Bugle to see if Jameson is also involved with the Tinkerer's plans. The D.B. employees are ambushed and attacked by Winter Wolf's squad until Spider-Man and Romanoff fight them off. This time, Spider-Man defeats and unmasks Winter Wolf for everyone around New York to see.
To everyone's (including Mary Jane and Jameson's) shock, the Winter Wolf is revealed to be Jameson's son and Mary Jane's ex-fiancee John Jameson. Right after Winter Wolf retreats, Jameson is pointed out as the mastermind behind Hydra's terrorism and arrested and Mary Jane is cleared out of the charges by Parker and Captain Stacy. Back in the Hydra Base where he was turned into the Winter Wolf, John demands Mason answers. Mason, however, programs his machines to finish the brainwashing progress. This time, John is stripped off his memories of everyone who "made him soft" so that John will be the perfect living weapon. Ross, deciding to eliminate both Spider-Man and Stark to capture Banner, secretly programs the machines for an 'special enhancement'. Meanwhile, Parker is approached and consoled by Mary Jane, who confesses herself not mad at him for presumably knowing of John's whereabouts as he was only sure and suspicious. Alerted of a extremely hostile strategy planned by Professor Mason, Parker exacts to locate the Winter Soldier base and put a stop on his plans. Still deciding that he should not handle this alone, Stark, Mary Jane, Banner, Romanoff, Wanda, Rhodes and a reformed Harry join him in the fight.
The team reaches the Tinkerer's Fortress in the Hydra Siberian Facility where the Winter Soldiers were created. There, while the others search for the citizens who are being held prisoners for Mason's experiments and battle all who stand in their way, Parker, Stark and Banner confront Mason himself, who sends hordes of Super Soldier monsters and Hulkbuster Androids to attack them. Just then, Mason checks on John, whom Ross had secretly injected with a combination of the captured wolves' DNA with the serum used to transform Emil Blonsky into the Abomination. John hideously transforms into a mindless human / wolf hybrid monster and uncontrollably wreaks havoc in the facility and kills Mason in the progress. As the rest of the team evacuates the citizens, Parker, Stark and Banner hold down against the Man-Wolf.
After a destructive fight across the facility, Parker and Stark manage to weaken the beast with a unstable prototype of the Arc Reactor before Hulk sends it flying towards the core of the base. The trio escapes with the rest of the team while the Arc Reactor overloads the core and destroys the factory, killing Man-Wolf in there as Ross watches while on board a evacuating Hydra gunship.
In the aftermath of the fight, the Hulkbusters are exposed by Betty Brant as Hydra spawns and Ross is pointed out as a fugitive to the law. Harry resumes his career as Oscorp CEO with Banner acting as a major teacher for the company's prodigies. After a romantic moment with Mary Jane, Peter eventually accepts the idea of working with other heroes to contend with new threats and the city cheers when Daily Bugle names Spider-Man as the "Wall-crawling Avenger".
* In a mid-credit scene, Ross walks by a laboratory in the main Hydra headquarters as he dismisses Commander Talbot's complains about the Hulkbusters being exposed as Hydra's allies. As he has a moment alone, however, Ross turns out to be an impostor as the real general Ross is revealed to have been held a prisoner of Hydra and the impostor is revealed to be actually Thor's treacherous adoptive brother Loki in disguise.
* In a post-credit scene, Director Fury enters a dark room where Bucky Barnes (the original Winter Soldier) is having a therapy treatment by Captain Stacy's daughter Gwen. There, Fury meets with the X-Men's founder Professor Charles Xavier, who agrees to cooperate with the important matters they have to discuss.
