  The Third Time's Not Quite the Charm

  by cwalton

  The third in the Spidey series has its moments, but overall, there's something missing. I liked the new villains. Thomas Haden Church brings some genuine emotion to his conflicted Sandman. Topher Grace is as smarmy as can be as a rival photographer who eventually morphs into the truly terrifying Venom. But there are too many storylines here, and the ones that keep getting repeated every Spider-Man installment (especially the relationship between Peter Parker and MJ) are starting to feel a bit tired. If they make another, and given the success of this one, I'm sure they will, it may be time to turn over the reigns to a new filmmaker and cast who'll bring something inspired to the table...just like the current crew did with the first two entries, which were fresh but familiar spins on what's a dependable and always well-received franchise.

  Perfect Movie!

  by BlackSpidey

  Wow. what can I say about this movie other than the fact that it is AMAZING! Sandman is awesome, New Goblin is Awesome and Venom is Awesome. The fight scenes are great and it has many laughs as well. This movie is perfect even if you are not a fan of the previous Spidey films.

  Nuff Said!

  by AndyZ

  Oh how the mighty have fallen. How did this happen? Why do all great comic book movies fall flat on their faces in Movie number 3 (think Batman, Superman, X-men)? This movie is laughably bad bordering on unwatchable. AND WHO SAID THEY COULD CHANGE ALL THOSE ORIGINAL STORY LINES? Peter Parker turns into a self absorbed ego maicial self centered pompus *** and he takes Spider-man with him! The 2 of them are a match made in heaven MAry Jane has gone from Off Broadway rising star to "one night wonder" in the blink of an eye. Sandman as the killer of Ben Parker??? WTF??? And Venom is about as menacing as a house cat who just got declawed. Venom? They should just call him loserand be done with it. And Harry, poor Harry. He hates, he loves, he hates again-so many stages of mind, so little time. I'm sorry but Gobby Jr as a hero? Gwen Stacy is another wasted character, played with sex appeal but no PLUCK by the amazing looking daughter of OPIE TAYLOR! All in all this is no way to waste $250mil

  Spider-man 3

  by Capn Savy

  I was completely disgusted with what the Director did to this movie. This movie, out of all three, had the most potential. Venom, a beloved Spider-man villain, was played down and worthless. The new Green Goblin looked like a bad version of the Silver Surfer. Kirsten Dunst is a horrible Mary Jane. The alien symbiote was a pathetic and hardly explained at all except for a few scenes that felt shoved in just because they needed filler (which is impossible given that the movie is two hours and twenty minutes long. The only good parts came from the performances of the actresses playing Ursula and Gwen Stacey. The scenes where James Franco wasn't portraying the Green Goblin where his best in the series. The Sandman was hardly explained at all but suddenly important enough to become a huge/minor part in the film. All in all this movie had some appealing fight scenes, but other than that it had no substance and is not worth your time. Also, what was up with the Butler? Worst Character EVER.

  Truly an enjoyable movie

  by 4thak

  Lil' review

  by JaySee

  This time around spidey not only faces off against 3 villians, but technically 4..himself. You would assume this means there are tons of battles and fight scenes, but if I remember correctly there are only 5. Yes I know "only 5?!?" seems like alot, and it is. But much of the fight scenes come between the scenes featuring peter's inner tourmoil and problems with MJ and Harry. So while amazing to watch (every fight scene has it's own great feel to it) I think most fans coming in expecting to see the bigger and better than Spider-man 1 and 2 will get it, but i think expectations may be too high as Venom/black suit is such a beloved chapter in the spidey lore. I thought the movie was great, not perfect, there are a few parts that made me snicker (The butler seems to know a bit too much about the osborns..).. Anyway, I think the final product was good, but I'm sure people will continue to see it as "it could have been better".

  Must See Movie of the Summer!

  by jorbak

  I LOVED this movie. The beginning was a little slow, but it picked up. The beginning was more about Peter and MJ's relationship and introducing the villians, not much action. The beginning focused on Peter's feelings about him being Spiderman and MJ's feelings about going out with Spiderman. This seems a bit slow at first, but still really interesting. The best parts were in the middle and the end; where all the action was. The scenes were packed with action and I couldn't take my eyes off the screen! The ending was very dramatic, but I don't want to give anything away. I will say that if you tend to cry in movies, bring tissue, the ending is a tear-jerker, Overall, I really enjoyed watching the movie and I would reccommend it to anyone, boys and girls alike.

  The movie just didnt match the hype...

  by cgold21

  Being a huge fan of the first two movies and comics in general, I hoped this movie would top the other two and blow me away but sadly it was the weakest of the three. Although there were enjoyable moments and some great scenes.. the direction and choices they made just didnt work and seemed forced at times. Sandman's backstory to be Ben's killer was not needed and to be just another sad mistaken bad guy got a little old. Its like they put sandman in the movie just to add more drama, but came away corny in the end, instead of just adding a enjoyable villian for spidey to battle. Venom deserved far more time in the movie and although I think they did a good job setting up Eddie's hatred for peter, venom just got pushed to the back of the story when he should of been the biggest part. They tried to do to much, and it made everything feel forced...Its to bad that this wasnt the best of the three, but sadly the movie didnt live up to the hype..

  Very Disappointing

  by Gustavicles

  So much anticipation, so disappointed. Again Hollywood decides for us what we want. We wanted more villians, more Special effects and more action, we got them only after an hour and a half of boring love story nonsense and a breif shout out to Saturday Night Fever. Avoid and wait for DVD it isn't worth the 10 bucks.

  Way too much Kirsten Dunst not enough Venom

  by ajc2684

  This is a bad movie. It's corny, lame, boring, and way too long. The best parts are the first fight with sandman and the last one with all 4 characters. However, even those scences were bad. OMG, the movie started at 12am and Venom didnt appear until 2am. BAD MOVIE!

  by enjoiurself

  do NOT go to this movie

  by ToXiKshade

  this movie sucked so bad that people laughed at the serious parts. it sucked so bad my girlfriend fell asleep watching the action scenes. Iit sucked SO BAD that I demanded a refund of my tickets and they gave me it because they knew how much it sucked. if you do happen to see it, tell them that you are new in this country and didn't know that the USA made such bad movies and that you want your money back or you will go to the president of the US and demand your money and demand that he shut down that theater, as your dad is the king of egypt. i hated this movie, they murdered the series. damn you spiderman movie makers, damn you to hell.
