"With The Amazing Spider-Man opening next week on July 3rd, you may feel like you’ve seen the entire movie through the recent marketing barrage. Well, you have seen about twenty-five minutes of it, because someone’s gone through the trouble of editing all the footage together into a mini-film for your viewing pleasure. Add to it a new clip, TV spot and featurette and you can watch nearly a third of The Amazing Spider-Man without paying a dime."
I'll repost my comment from Facebook why I liked this movie so much
(someone asked if Lizard was any good, since Lizard isn't exactly a famous villain)
To me, the Lizard storyline is the original storyline, so I liked it. The Lizard CG was kind of lame, but actually most of the rest of the CG was pretty good. Unlike the original Spiderman movies, he didn't look like a goofy cartoon when he was flying around the city.
This was one of the more 'human' comic movies, and casting Martin Sheen and Sally Field as the Parkers really held everything together. When the story took place (and we all know what happens) there was still an emotional impact. We know WHY Peter decided to become Spiderman, and the first movie (and comic) didn't portray this as well as this movie did.
Also, another thing I liked was that unlike Avengers, it wasn't "turned up to 11" all the time. Avengers was just one stunt scene after another. Yes they were pretty awesome scenes, but after a while it got a bit fatiguing. With Spiderman, you go to enjoy the story as well as the action. The only problem I had with it was the story is just so familiar, if you have read the original comic and watched the first movie.
Who cares what arbitrary score it has on some website? Find out why people like it or don't like it. Man, people are getting so lazy they won't even read reviews anymore. They just want a score to decide for them
However Garfield doesn't seem like Peter Parker to me.
As someone that Loved TAS from the 90's..
THis is Peter Parker to me:
This Skiny Kid with Big Hair didnt feel like Peter Parker at all
Tobey looked the part more:
Also wasnt a fan of the new personality of Peter.. I prefer him as the nerd/loser, Andrew version of him was a bit to cool., hip. I guess it works for the kids these days, but Peter parker wasnt a hipster
Also wasnt a fan of how the Lizard looked.. no Snout..
movie was entertaining, but i dont see it reaching the same level as the 2002 spider man.

Sorry but your Peter Parker is wrong.
Peter Parker is a skinny, ugly geek. Andrey Garfield is a skinny, ugly geek. Absolutely perfect casting.
The smart ass cocky "I got picked on all my life and now it's my turn" is what Spiderman was all about. And that's what this Spiderman is all about.
Peter Parker from the comics is skinny..that's the way it is in the movies, and that seems about right to me. The animated series Peter Parker looks like a jock, not an awkward nerd.
Thought the movie was pretty good. I'd give 8/10 on it. Didn't like a few things about it though, see the spoiler.
The fight scenes are way better than the Tobey's 3 movies.
Spoiler!
I know its a reboot but some things that bothered me about this movie was.
1) They didn't get Spiderman to actually compete in wrestling, they did pay tribute to wrestling, but I was expecting him to wrestle in a match like the first movie.
2) "with great power comes great responsibility" - Uncle briefly talked about being responsible, but never in this movie did the mention the actual quote. This quote is what Spiderman lives by and it wasn't even mentioned.
Thought the fight with the Lizard at the highschool was awesome, especially the part where Spiderman just jumps around and wrapping the Lizard up in a web.
Btw, any guesses on who will be the villain for sequel? Heard they might bring in Green Goblin or Mysterio.
Originally posted by european i'd say its a bear... from what i've learned from winnie the pooh. you should be able to lure it with some honey.. and it'll be your friend for life!! then you'll meet his friends.. that crazy owl!! and that lazy ass donkey.. whats his name.. Eore or something.. if you meet his llitte piggy friend.. roast him and eat some ribs!! hahahaha.. wtf am i on!! hahaha i'm going nuts over here!!!
Loved the arrogant, wise-cracking Spidey that they had going on during his fights. That's how Peter Parker was supposed to be in the comics!
Thought the acting was pretty superb as well. Definitely enjoyed it better than Tobey Maguire and Kristen Dunst's performances.
It was a lot more emotionally engaging than the original Sam Raimi trilogy. Gotta agree with SkinnyPupp, Martin Sheen and Sally Field were great as the Parkers!
