Sam Raimi had brought us a trilogy that everybody wanted, about a web-slinger climbing walls and fight crime. Yes, it's Spider-Man. He had made the first movie so great that I really was entertained when I watched this with my younger brother. It's just one of the Marvel Movies I could never forget.
Tobey Maguire was just excellent and really perfect to be Peter Parker/Spider-Man. He was just a heart-felt character. He could even cry in the film (which most actors could do when they pretend that someone in their family is dead like Uncle Ben). The other casting choices were perfect as well like Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane Watson, Peter's love interest, James Franco being Harry Osborn, son of Norman Osborn who is the Green Goblin, the main antagonist, played by Willem Dafoe. He was also one of the best performances making Green Goblin one of the greatest Marvel villains thanks to Dafoe. The performances were actually a lot better than I expected and all went really well. Flash Thompson played by Joe Manganiello, was a perfect bully in the film. He was just so naughty being Peter Parker's Draco Malfoy that made me wanna hit him in the face.
There are so many memorable scenes which were quite hilarious like when Peter screamed :WHOAOAOAOAOAOAAAAA!" when he swung with his web over and hit himself on a wall. The wrestling scene was also hilarious. Bonesaw really looked like an idiot. The battle between Peter and Flash was the same, I laughed when Flash got kicked in the ass. I was surprised when Peter just shouted: "Shazam!".
The screenplay was also good with some unforgettable lines, they were iconic like: "That's a cute outfit! Did your husband make it for you?". Some were funny, some were emotional and some were iconic. The dialogues and conversations were wonderful.
There wasn't much CGI in this film which made the movie even better. There were webbing action sequences, epic battles and they used little CGI. I was a bit disappointed with the cinematography because it was like old-school like the 80s, 90s or maybe the 70s. I felt okay when this movie didn't have any black bars. It's just the first modern Spider-Man movie (I'm counting Nicholas Hammond as well but it's a Tv Series).
The best part about this movie was Danny Elfman. When it comes to superheroes, Danny Elfman was the greatest one among the composers who could do that like Alan Silvestri but I felt Elfman was best in Spider-Man. The score was the best and I could never forget it. I even downloaded it on my MP3 player to listen when I'm having an adventure. Nobody could compose such a good superhero score like him. Of course, John Williams is still the best but he wasn't as good as Elfman in superheroes.
This is one of the greatest Spider-Man movies. I felt like it deserved to exist, a high ratings from critics though IMDb users made it 7.3/10 which was really disappointing. Metacritic is also a disappointing movie rating website (another 73 points). Rotten Tomatoes gave it well, 90%, it deserved that. It had many things I needed and it's one of the greatest Marvel movie today.
Ratings: 8.8/10
