However hard you try, somehow you just cannot imagine Peter Parker in a relationship with somebody like Charlize Theron. He only looks about 16 on the best of days Maguire, and even though he is supposed to be all sweet and innocent on his 'journey of discovery', Candy was just TOO mature for him. Let's just say any romance between the two was both unlikely and unrealistic.
In spite of this, everybody involved manages to do a great job. Michael Caine is very impressive doing his clingy father routine, although whether it deserved an Oscar is debatable, while it's obvious that Theron didn't just 'hit form' with Monster - she's been a more than capable actress for quite some time.
Plus, the film's main theme of abortion ended up to be not quite as clear cut as it first seemed. Performing terminations with a clear conscience on a daily basis, Larch would preach that it would all be for the greater good in the end, and he had seemingly gotten this through to Homer following his handywork on Rose. Yet, just when the pro-abortion message was in full swing, bang, Wally returns from Burma paralysed from the waist down and, due to her earlier visit to St. Clouds, Candy's chance of ever having a child with him up in smoke. Ambiguously well handled.
