Spider-Man 3

Pros: Spider-Man 3 delivers
Cons: A few slow spots

With as much anticipation as any other adult that collected Marvel's The Amazing Spiderman comics as a youngster, I was more than willing to shell out the full price of a movie ticket to see actor Toby MaGuire put on the Spidey suit, plus with my ...

Pros: Great effects, some nicely done story developments.
Cons: Tries to pack too much into a single film.

It’s official: Spider-Man 3 is upon us, and this, the third and perhaps most hyped film of the series pits our beloved wall-crawler against no less than three super-villain adversaries. Released in a summer of sequels (Fantastic Four 2, ...

Pros: exciting action, interesting new villains, all the makings of a blockbuster
Cons: a little chaotic, strayed some from original story

Continuing the immensely successful series of films, Spider-Man 3 presents a more emotional, and sometimes more chaotic look at the themes of the infamous web-slinger. Three years after the wildly popular second film broke all kind of theatrical ...

Pros: too much going on, not enough Venom
Cons: too lovey dovey, low on action

I love the Spider-Man movies, so of course visited the theater shortly after Spider-Man 3 was released. I don’t know why I waited so long to review it. Maybe it’s because I was upset with this movie and have just gotten of it enough ...

Pros: Better than Batman & Robin
Cons: That ain't saying much.

Sequelitis: A terrible disease that afflicts sequels of blockbuster motion pictures. It can manifest in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to: missing stars (see Speed 2); three hour runtimes (see Pirates of the Caribbean ...

Pros: Good acting, FX, some interesting themes
Cons: A bit too long and slow in places, the Jared Leto look

Attention, Peter Parker: Jared Leto would like his look back. That was my wife's first comment after the lights came on after seeing Spider-Man 3 yesterday, and it is so true. A similar thought had struck me the first time we see the totally ...

Pros: it's Spider-Man, some good special effects
Cons: bad acting, dancing!, jumbled plots, predictable

I remember watching the Saturday morning Spider-Man cartoon with my brother and have always had a certain affection for the web-slinging everyman Peter Parker. So when the first Spider-Man movie came out, I was hyped. I enjoyed both of the first two ...

Pros: Good acting.
Cons: The black suit took over his personality and Spidey starts acting up.

I am a big fan of Spider Man. I used to watch the cartoons when I was growing up. The Spiderman ride is my favorite one at Universal Studio's Islands of Adventure. I saw part 1 and part 2, so when Spiderman 3 came out, I felt obligated to see it. ...

Pros: Performances are solid, many nice special effects.
Cons: Far, far too much crammed into one movie. Too many implausible plot points.

I have written a review of this film already. However, having recently seen it for a second time, it struck me that the new look at the film changed my perspective and my opinion of it. We have an expression in French that says "Qui ...

Pros: It's a Spider-man movie
Cons: Story, Acting, that cringe-inducing dance sequence

The first time I saw “Spider-Man 3”, I left the theatre feeling underwhelmed. The more I see it (it’s been playing repeatedly on Starz this month), the more terrible it gets. The Story of Venom “Spider-Man 3” attempts to bring the Venom ...

Pros: Good visuals, good story concepts, payoff to some ongoing stories
Cons: Poor establishing of mood, too much time singing and dancing, too little time with Venom

Spider-Man 3 sounds in concept like it could easily be the best movie of the franchise. It's got the dark side of Peter Parker and of Spider-Man which solidifies into my favorite SM villain, Venom (take that all you IMDB who called me dirty names for ...

Pros: We Finally see Venom!
Cons: They Ruined Him!!!

I saw this film in Montreal, that explains the weird title I chose for this review. Well, then, the long-awaited third Spider-Man film has finally been released and we finally get to see Spider-man's arguably best villain...VENOM! By the time the black ...

Pros: Special effects, Thomas Haden Church's casting
Cons: Dunst is annoying, Grace is miscast and too many storylines

There's a problem with Spiderman 3. A big one. Could it be the actors? Could it be the story? Could it be the special effects? Well, to tell you the truth. It's damn near everything because that's precisely what Spiderman 3 tries to be: everything. ...

Pros: Maguire, Grace, Venom concept, Campbell cameo
Cons: Redundant, overpopulated, boring, Dunst, script, FX

A mysterious black goo from outer freakin’ not of this Earth arrives to infect Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire), turning him into the polar opposite of Spider Man (called Venom, and deserving of it’s own film as a singular Spidey villain, if you ask me) just ...

Pros: Thomas Hayden Church/Flint Marko, James Franco/Harry Osborn
Cons: The Sandman, Most of the other characters, acting and plot, Special effects

Before I give my bottomline on "Spider-man 3," let me tell you how much I was looking forward to it. I didn't get into the whole cinematic Spider-man phenomenon the last few years as the film franchise began. I relented the last day "Spider-man" ...
