Movie Reviews of Spider-Man 3 (Two-Disc Special Edition)Movie Review: Walked out of the theatre Summary: 2 StarsDespite the fact that I own hundreds of spidey comics, really enjoyed the first two movies and nearly staked out the theatre for weeks before its openning night. I found spiderman 3 to be crappy, predictable, and a blackeye to the spiderman franchise.
To date, I've yet to see the full ending of this movie, since having walked out of the theatre. To the best of my knowledge, mary janes still stuck in that taxi cab above NYC.
Summary of Spider-Man 3 (Two-Disc Special Edition)Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) finally has the girl of his dreams Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst) and New York City is in the throes of Spider-mania! But when a strange alien symbiote turns Spider-Man s suit black his darkest demons come to light changing Spider-Man inside as well as out. Spider-Man is in for the fight of his life against a lethal mix of villains - the deadly Sandman (Thomas Haden Church) Venom (Topher Grace) and the New Goblin (James Franco) - as well as the enemy within himself.System Requirements:Run Time: 139 Mins. Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating: PG-13 UPC: 043396225978 Manufacturer No: 22597 How does Spider-Man 3 follow on the heels of its predecessor, which was widely considered the best superhero movie ever? For starters, you pick up the loose threads from that movie, then add some key elements of the Spidey comic-book mythos (including fan-favorite villain Venom), the black costume, and the characters of Gwen Stacy and her police-captain father. In the beginning, things have never looked better for Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire): He's doing well in school; his alter ego, Spider-Man, is loved and respected around New York City. And his girlfriend, Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst), has just taken a starring role in a Broadway musical. But nothing good can last for Spidey. Mary Jane's career quickly goes downhill; she's bothered by Peter's attractive new classmate, Gwen Stacy (Bryce Dallas Howard); and the new Daily Bugle photographer, Eddie Brock (Topher Grace), is trying to steal his thunder. Enter a new villain, the Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), who can transform his body into various forms and shapes of sand and who may be connected to Peter's past in an unexpected way. There's also the son of an old villain, Harry Osborne (James Franco), who unmasked Spidey in the previous movie and still has revenge on his mind. And a new black costume seems to boost Spidey's powers, but transforms mild-mannered Peter into a mean and obnoxious boor (Maguire has some fun here). If that sounds like a lot to pack into one 140-minute movie, it is. While director Sam Raimi keeps things flowing, assisted on the screenplay by his brother Ivan and Alvin Sargent, there's a little too much going on, and it's inevitable that one of the villains (there are three or four, depending on how you count) gets significantly short-changed. Still, the cast is excellent, the effects are fantastic, and the action is fast and furious. Even if Spider-Man 3 isn't the match of Spider-Man 2, it's a worthy addition to the megamillion-dollar franchise. --David Horiuchi More Spiderman on DVD  The Spiderman Toy Store |  More Spider-man on Amazon |  Spider Man on the small screen |  The Soundtrack |  For PlayStation 2 |  The Book |
