    AMAZING!

    by ClarkBar5804

    Being a long time Spider Man fan, I really liked this movie. To me Andrew Garfeild was a more believable Peter Parker/Spider Man than Tobey. The different spin on the origin of him getting his abilities was good too. It also appeared that this movie did not rely alot on CGI special effects as much as the first three made alot of the scence appear real and not cartoon like. So if you are a fan of Spiderman or just like action with a little romance thrown in go see this movie and you wont be dissapointed.

    good movie, action packed, decent enough

    by nng


    The movie was done well for what it was. I felt it was a little slow paced in the beginning and almost boring having to rehash through all the scientific concepts and ideas. garfield was more a mumbling weirdo than anything who still seemed wimpish even after his spider powers. emma stone did an ok job but her character was too aloof. the movie itself wasn't amazing- it was unique and interesting and fairly well done in plot, special effects etc, with some flaws too. I think its too hyped and overrated like most movies these days. It's still worth going to and has enough action and drama and decent chemistry and intriguing characters and actors to make for a good film...

    A worthy addition to the Spider-Man media dynasty

    by murrellb

    I enjoyed this movie opening night, and I don't regret one cent of the admission,. It is a well-done update to Spidey's seminal emergence. The action was tight and the effects were authentic. I look forward to the games and gear this update will spawn. Seems like they're setting up the Green Goblin for part 2 of this series. Based on Marvel history, that probably means Gwen Stacy will not be with us for part 3, Too bad. The chemistry between the primary characters worked very well. I was a bit dubious when I heard this update would rehash the origin. They actually pulled it off and very well at that. I would recommend anyone who can enjoy a good comic to see this new movie,

    The Amazing Spider-Man

    by

    The amazing spider-man movie was better then the other three spider-man movies because they finally follow the comic book correct in my opinion. I can't wait to but the amazing spider-man on blu-ray/ dvd and can't wait to see the amazing spider-man 2.

    Thoroughly enjoyed the movie!!!! Love it!!!

    by MysticEmFantasy5

    I love this new Spiderman movie - the main actor and Emma Stone were amazing!! They bought this movie to life and made me cry a couple of times during the movie! I also laughed and was scared at certain points. Definitely a movie that should be watched in the theaters for full effects!! I highly recommend this movie! Its not just another remake, but a much better improvement than the other Spiderman movies. I was so sucked into the movie that the ending came before I knew it!

    Good here and there

    by

    The new installation of Spiderman was not a surprise to most. With a great cast including Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone made this summer blockbuster quite the hit. There were a few good things and a few not so good things throughout the movie. The first person scenes were a decent attempt at something new and the action was perfectly mixed with the comedy of the whole movie. The special effects were a bit overdone, especially with the Lizardman (who looked a tad ridiculous, to be honest). All in all, a movie the is definitely worth seeing, I give it a 7.5 out of 10

    Must Go See TASM

    by swade3

    The actors in this movie are what makes it such a great movie going experience. Garfield and Stone are a great duo together and just have breath taking chemistry on screen. All of the actors played their role to their best ability. The effects and action sequences were amazing and fun. 9/10. Must GO!!!

    Better than the previous movies!

    by Merciel

    At first, I wasn't into the new Peter Parker--He didn't seem nerdy enough--, but it actually worked out. It made for a much more convincing transformation into Spider-Man than Toby Maguire's. Spider-Man was also much more entertaining and closer to the comic book version with all his quips.

    Everything about this movie was better. It wasn't as cheesy (though it did have one very cheesy moment with Stan Lee, but that's forgivable) and the dialog and plot were better.

    This exceeded my original expectations. I thought it was too early to reboot the series, and I'm sick of seeing origin movies all the time, but this was a good origin movie and did some things different so it wasn't just a review of the story we all know.

    Definitely see this.

    The Amazing Spider-Man exceeded my expectations

    by Neon_Abyss17

    It had so many mistakes that I thought would be bad. The story arc for example:
    *SPOILERS*
    The story arc is an alternate story of Peter Parker where his parents were Russian spies (such as Black Widow from the Avengers movie) and his dad worked with Dr. Kurt Connors (who essentially is missing his arm because of an accident in his past). I expected them to actually try and make the Lizard like Abomination (from the Hulk) and just be a science miscalculation (typical yet so lovable Marvel).
    The actors picked in this movie were so out of character (appearance wise [excluding Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy]). Spider-Mans costume looks amazing (hence the name!), but Andrew Garfield made Peter Parker his own little 'Skater-Boy'.

    I was so wrong. Everything was perfect, excluding a few bad jokes, Peter Parker is the same nerd and Spider-Man is the same cocky Spider-Man. 8/10

    WAS BLOWN AWAY!

    by JMALTAIS

    I?ve been a Marvel fan since I was old enough to ask my parents for comics. Raised my son as one also and while this Movie may be too emotionally advanced for some Marvel movie patrons, I feel it exceled in every way!

    Andrew Garfield is a great Spider-Man

    by

    I had low expectations for this reboot, but I ended up thoroughly enjoying The Amazing Spider-Man and I think I prefer it over the Tobey McGuire version. I wouldn't say Andrew is a better Spider-Man, just a different take on a character. Make sure to stay after the credits for a special scene.

    In a word...AMAZING!!!!

    by

    Spidey is my husband's favorite comic book hero so it's always tricky when there's a Spidey movie out. Recently, our 6 year old daughter started getting into the "superhero" craze. We all went to see it last night and loved it!!!! Really awesome!!!! Totally loved the suit!!!!!

    1 topped 3

    by marinesquad49

    This Spiderman had a better flow than the other Spiderman movies made with Toby McGuire. I totally bought into the high school characters in this one and saw a better development into the Spiderman role here than in the first Spiderman ten years ago. There are some storyline differences in this one compared to the previous so it can be a bit confusing (web shooters). Overall a pleasing movie to see for any crowd.

    Impressed.

    by fightermcfighter

    The movie was a really good adaptation to the comic book. I felt that Andrew Garfield did outstanding performance in his role as spider-man. Emma Stone was gorgeous as well, mixing her looks with the geeky science role of Gwen. The villain was solid too. I would give the movie an 8 to 8.5 out of 10. It didn't scream at me to wanna see it but I believe that it did extremely well then its precursors and I'm looking forward to more of them being made.
