I think perhaps I'm getting old - but I didn't like this film.
A very teenage vibe about it (even though most of the cast are 20+). Spiderman is basically just larking it up for the whole movie - superheroes only become superheroes because they have to (because of events in their life or to fight some sort of injustice).....but this Peter Parker is just dossing around.
I didn't like the technological suit at all (this is Spiderman, not Iron Man).
The bad guy - what a waste. Michael Keaton can make such a good bad guy, but the reasoning for him becoming evil was incredibly weak.
I suppose it (almost) goes without saying that a second reboot of this franchise within a decade is ridiculous.
Good points:
Got the suit on in 16 minutes. Not almost an hour like in Spiderman and the Amazing Spiderman!
Didn't go through the tortuous backstory of the spider-bite and such, as I guess the writers know we're already well aware of it.
On IMDB, this film has a higher rating than Spiderman 2, which I view as one of the best superhero films ever made. So I guess this film was made for the younger generation, and not for me
4/10
