May 13, 2014I didn't really care about seeing this movie, and now that I have, I don't really care about seeing any of the sequels. It felt so similar to the Sam Raimi Spider-Man that I just wasn't interested in what it had to offer. They say it was closer to the comics, but who really cares about that anymore? The object should be to take the subject matter and make a good movie, and this one was just OK. The back story was the same, Peter Parker's parents died and he went to live with his aunt and uncle, then he was bit by a radioactive spider in a laboratory which gave him super powers. When his uncle died he wanted revenge, so he started picking off bad guys while he was learning to harness his potential. The cops chased after him and called him a public nuisance. The scientist that created the radioactive spiders then accidentally turned himself into a lizard-man and became a super-villain, giving Spider-Man a purpose. Chaos ensued, Spider-Man won, the end. Nothing new here.
