Wow...usually I'm the one ranting against movies and Hollywood crap.

 

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. I felt like a 14 year old walking out of it. "Hey, dood!" I said to my friend, "did you see the bit where Spidey and Sandman were fighting, and then...THAT WAS SO COOL!" You get the picture.

 

The action scenes were amazing. Martial arts on steroids, charged with a warp drive taking place 50 blocks above ground level. The special effects looked great. There was alot packed into the movie, but I felt it was (more or less) neatly done.

 

The emo bit with the black suit was supposed to illuminate that the symbiote doesn't just makes you stronger, it also makes you an asshole and repulsive to others, and I thought it worked, in a very entertaining way.

 

The film was as much a much morality play, with questions about power, responsibility, love, revenge and forgiveness, as it was an action/superhero film. Alot of hero films try that but end up looking tacky. I thought that it worked reasonably well in this film.

 

Sure, there were dodgy bits - like the part with Green Goblin's butler - but I thought they were few and far between, and didn't detract too much from the final product.

 

I too however, wished for a more bulkier Venom. And he didn't have a long tongue, if I remember correctly.

 

Even so, I loved this movie! I liked the first two but I liked this one better, because this one took risks, instead of following the usual superhero formula, which is what the two prequels did. Risks never entirely pay off, hence the criticism IMO, but they worked out well enough for me in this film.

 

And I don't think there will be anymore Spiderman films - this one tied up all the ends, and Toby Maguire and Kirsten Dunst don't wish to play these characters anymore.

 

I'm with you.

I hate it when they switch up actors for big roles. Part of the reason I stay away from James bonds movies is because of that.

hmm yeah Casino Royale was a bit weird with a new bond. I thought he did a decent job though. Didn't have the bond feel to it however :/

To counter aruge, this is Bond before he became "Bond."

Exactly. That's where there was no Bond music when the movie started and he said "Name's Bond, James Bond" at the end. I don't see how people missed that.

Your black suit is cool. The Venom in the film could have been a lot more menacing. Not a huge beef...

 

...but I was secretly hoping to see that big diving move of his from Marvel Vs Capcom, where he is just a big mouth. Knew it wouldn't come out, but the film still would have been the better with it.

He wasn't bond yet, but come on, he really was bond

 

kinda like MGS3, You wheren't really solid snake, but, you where. (although thats even more different because you arent solid snake AT ALL)

I saw it at The Basement. It was free, but I feel like they owe me money anyway. Seriously, that was a pile of crap. Too much romantic drama, not enough action, not enough alien symbiote, not enough anything cool, really. It was hilarious when Spiderman jumps in front of this massive American flag before going off to fight the villains though.
