im going to say this movie didnt meet all my expectations, it looked real amazing, it had more action, better action and more story, as much as i hate raimi and shit, sp3 had MANY cheesy parts the whole unhealthy symbiote taking over parker portrayed through his image and cockiness, was just too over the top, the hair flick just did it for me, and the jazz scene. Through that, yeah its a good movie, but you can't really go wrong with a 500 mil budget and spider-man
Had I said "Spiderman 3 was the worst movie in existence" or "Spiderman 3 sucked so bad that Jack Kirby awoke from the dead to smack Stan Lee for allowing them to make this movie." then it would be Hyperbole. What I said isn't hyperbole though, its the truth.
What I'm saying is that Spiderman 3 was entertaining to watch, visually, but it was a brain dead Hollywood fest with little to no actual development and pointless scenes that served no purpose whatsoever where it could have been an amazing movie. They missed the mark with a LOT of major things (almost all the major things), but aside from that at least they did a good job with the CG and it was fun to look at. But overall it was a severely lacking movie.
I enjoyed it for what it was, a CG action fest made for testosterone pumped 15 year old kids. I enjoyed watching it for those reasons, as a matter of fact I'll prolly see it again at some point. But as a movie goer and especially a Spiderman fan, I was extremely let down, mad, and disappointed with the movie. There were glimmers of greatness in the movie, I'm not saying it was completely devoid of anything good but the bad (and the cheesy) were in much more abundance then the good.
What Spiderman? You must mean Peter Parker. I thought there was less action in this flick than the last two, as well as being less enthralling. There was no emotional connection to the fight scenes.

dude stfu ok. im not exactly defending this movie, and not exactly praising it, but as a former-spiderman-movie-hater-gone-"doesnt care anymore"-kmc poster, i hafto admit that there is way more action in this movie than the previous, but like a lot of movies, the scattered love/emotional scenes overpowers and overwealms the action scenes.
Don't tell me the fight scenes had no emotional connection, afterall, sandman killed uncle ben, and spiderman wants to kill him. Venom/Sandman hold Mj hostage, none of that affects Peter/Spider-Man in anyway, yep. troll.

While I think the movie is getting a bit of a harsh rap, you can't say that just cause it made a lot of money, it's a good movie.
Take a look at the top 100 movies (money wise) (*I'm too new to be able to post links*) and compare it to the top 100 movies (imdb) and the only ones that make the cut are the three Lord of the Rings movies and the original Star Wars. Most blockbusters aren't amazing movies... with the exception of those.
Spiderman 3 wasn't a big dissapointment though. The "good gap" between X2 & X-Men 3 was wayyyyy bigger than between Spidey 3 and its prequels. It's mainly hardcore comic book fans who are crying cause it didn't include every detail that was in the comics. And yet if it was a "Venom fest" for 2 hours, people would have probably said it was what ((The Anomaly)) is apparently already saying it was "a braindead Hollywood fest". You can't please everyone. And yes, I know you people are just expressing your opinion.... so am I
People should be happy the trilogy was handled as well as it was. It could have ended up like those horrible video-game adaptation movies, Superman Returns, etc.
I actually thought the CG of Spidey webslinging didn't look as good as the previous movies. It looked more fake in 3, which is weird since they had more time and better technology to do it.
I too was really disappointed. Peter's dark side wasn't dark, it was midly aggressive.
If you're going to give a character a dark side, do it right! Make him very violent, so violent he think's he's going to kill someone. So nasty and aggressive he takes things too seriously, he never loosens up. One nasty son-of-a-***** is what he should've been!
