For devoted fans and nonfans alike, Spider-Man offers nothing less--and nothing more--than what you'd expect from a superhero blockbuster. Having proven his comic-book savvy with the original Darkman, director Sam Raimi brings ample energy and enthusiasm to Spidey's origin story, nicely establishing high-school nebbish Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) as a brainy outcast who reacts with appropriate euphoria--and well-tempered maturity--when a "super-spider" bite transforms him into the amazingly agile, web-shooting Spider-Man. That's all well and good, and so is Kirsten Dunst as Parker's girl-next-door sweetheart. Where Spider-Man falls short is in its hyperactive CGI action sequences, which play like a video game instead of the gravity-defying exploits of a flesh-and-blood superhero. Willem Dafoe is perfectly cast as Spidey's schizoid nemesis, the Green Goblin, and the movie's a lot of fun overall. It's no match for Superman and Batman in bringing a beloved character to the screen, but it places a respectable third. --Jeff Shannon

People who gave this movie 5 stars, how did you get over the whole throwing web from wrist thing, or hideous goblin costume? Yeah, like army will order a suit with a stupid gargoyle face. I know the whole thing is made up but the movie could at least be faithful to the comics.
Other than the issues above I really liked the movie.

Tobey McGuire stars as an ordinary Peter Parker who happens to be a high school nerd. He also happens to have a major crush on a classmate Mary Jane. One day on a field trip his class goes to a laboratory with genetic engineered "superspiders". As he's taking photographs of Mary Jane a "superspider" slides down the ceiling and bites Peter. He starts to feel sick and then goes to sleep. He doesn't wake up the same man he was when he fell asleep. From then on he becomes Spider-Man. The web-slinging ... Read More

This review will be split into three sections, they will be The Story, The Characters & The Verdict. This will give you a fair and true description of the movie and its characters and will give you my personal opinion of the movie which should help you make an informed decision on whether to watch this film for the first time or whether to stay away like you have already done for six years.

I wasn't a big fan of Spidey growing up so I wasn't sure what to expect with this movie.
I had no idea who any of his villains were either.
I was raised on Superfriends not marvel.
I was pleasantly surprised.
A tight movie with a quick and clever script.
Great acting and a likeable good guy.
The villain was..........hmmmmmmm.
He was funny but kind of corny.
Still, I give it five stars, it's fun for everyone and how often does Hollyweird do superhero movies ... Read More
