The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)
Wow! The Amazing Spider-Man is amazing! This one almost slipped by me. I was caught off guard when my friend asked if I was going to the midnight premiere on Monday. Amazingly there were still a lot of seats left for the midnight premiere at IMAX. I had some misgivings about this film. I didn't know how well Andrew Garfield would be as Spider-Man and I've always lamented the fact that they have yet to hire someone with a dynamic voice to play the character. He was good. I also didn't like how they gave the lizard a flat face or how he's naked all the time instead of wearing his trademark lab coat. The film does start to fall apart a little toward the end but it recovers and overall was fantastic. I look forward to sequels.
