saw it...pretty good. dragged on at times, and some of the...dramatic scenes...were pretty poorly acted imho...but hey, im the last one that should judge. i definitely would recommend though.
Yeah some of the dramatic machines were a bit cliche and poorly acted. Also WTF was with his emo look in the middle of the movie? I could have sworn he was wearing eyeliner.
The worst movie I've seen in a long time - so cliched, so corny and went on for about an hour longer than was necessary. Just awful.
The series continues to decline in quality. Very poor I thought. The finale was decent to watch but it was painful to get that far. I thought Sandman was underused and poorly characterised, Venom looked good but was shamefully neglected screen time, and the 'new' Green Goblin was like Shinobi on a snowboard. And the older Toby Maguire is, the creepier he gets. And what was with the Hitler haircut?
My post from another forum sums it up for me Plenty of this... Definitely not of enough of this... Way too much of this... It was however utterly fantastic and it made me... many times.
shoulda left sandman out, prolonged the black spidey/venom situation, left out the hitler parker, and not killed off hobgoblin...my opinion anyway
my god. did they even watch this film after they finished chopping it up? the only redeeming part of this movie was the 30 seconds of the French man. POS.
I think Hobgoblin was actually someone else and not Harry. I could be wrong though. I thought it was decent, way too much crying though. But hey, they can't keep putting Spidey up on his pedastal, he needed to humbled and I thought 3 did a good job of that with his experiences using the Symbiot suit. What I didn't like, was how Sandman was definately underused, and not very well fleshed out, we got the basics on him, but that was it. Venom, don't get me started on venom, everything about Venom to me just felt wrong, everything, even at the end. If they were going to cast someone scrawny and small as the Spidey counterpart they should have used Carnage instead of Venom.
i thought it was pretty good. It's a comic book movie though. you get what you get. I laughed a lot. I like how Bruce Cambell and Stan Lee showed up. that was cool.
That is the part I don't understand. All these critics and moviegoers go into tis obviouse comic book inspired movie, and expect there to be some deep meaning to how Venom arrives on earth or how the Sandman came to be, granted it wasn't exactly the way it happened in the comic, but regardless, they claim cheap plot devices like these make the movie bad, when it is a common occurence in the comic universe. Gwen Stacey was definately hotter than Mary Jane in this movie. If anything watch it for Gwen
Kirsten Dunst is a skank. As Mary Jane she's nice, as Kirsten Dunst she's a bit of biffer - looks aren't everything. I think, themax, the problem people have with Spider-Man's cheap plot lines, is that it is at pains to distance itself from comicbook cliches as possible with fairly good scripting and a concentration on the more human drama of Spider-Man's world. The first two managed that (even though SM2 was a bore). This one was trying too hard to reinforce it's 'OC'-ness whilst at the same time shoehorn in rubbish looking villians with ridiculous origins. Look how much time was spent establishing Doc Oc and the Green Goblin in the first two movies - compared with the cursory screen time devoted to Venom and Sandman.
