(minus the thing with the cranes at the end, that was a little much)


Really? I think it's moments like that that separate Spidey from most superheroes. It really showcases his vulnerability, compared to many other superheroes - neither Marvel nor DC have many characters like that with mainstream fame that I'm aware of. It's not the high-school stuff that separates him, it's the fact that the every man - not just the supporting cast of MJ, Gwen, or Aunt May - might need to step in and help him every so often.

I have to say that as a character Spider-Man is actually kind of weak. Think about how many times he's wanted to give up the costume compared to most other heroes. What makes him different? Someone else always comes in to be the voice of reason or give him that epiphany he needs. It's a weakness that makes him more... human, something I've always liked about Spider-Man.

I enjoyed the movie except for the music choices in the high school scenes, which is extreme nitpicking. 8/10. You might even say it was... Amazing. *rimshot*
