The Amazing Spider-man Indeed
I will admit that I was skeptical about this movie; a die-hard fan of original Tobey Maguire, I wasn't too keen on a reboot, especially so soon. So imagine my surprise when I not only liked this movie but perhaps even loved it. This is not to say that the movie was perfect or even mind-bending. It's a superhero movie and one that's been done before so there wasn't much originality to work from. Not to mention how perfectly put-together the plot was; everything just fell into place, which was both annoying as well as implausible. What the film lacks in plot/script, it more than makes up for in acting, characterization, directing and chemistry. Whooza. Those kids really had something going; no wonder they got together after they finished shooting. This version of PP, somehow, feels more organic and true to the comics; surprisingly, I enjoyed it more than TM's. It was a good film, all round; I recommend it to anyone who needs a good action movie or just digs superhero movies.
