The Amazing Spider Man

Intro

The Amazing Spider Man is a reboot of the Sam Raimi - Tobey Mc Guire - Spider Man Franchise, a fresh start on how Peter Parker becomes spider man and bashes up the bad guys, Sam Raimi’s  Spider Man 1 and 2 were both amazing, even though the third part failed to match the level of the second it was a decent movie, Unlike Nolans Batman Trio logy which was a reboot to the Batman Franchise after a complete mess up by Joel Shumacher, Mark Webb has to beat an equally good set, now that’s going to be a tough job

Synopsis

Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield)  is a normal school boy, who gets bullied but still likes to stand for what he believes is right and loves to shoot pictures especially of Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone), In search of his past he goes to Oscorp to meet Dr. Curt Connors who along with his dad were together working on Cross Genetic Species, but this search results in him getting bitten by a radioactive spider and acquires spider like abilities inclusive of spider sense, climbing walls etc, Peter uses his new found powers to get back at Flash Thomps on the school bully , one such day where he comes home late Uncle Ben gives him a lecture on Power and Responsibility and after a heated argument storms out of the house and this leads  to Uncle Ben's death from a man who walks right under his nose, Peter believes he led Uncle Ben to his death and goes in search of Uncle Ben’s Killer and wants revenge but see’s the bigger picture with Dr. Connor becoming the The Lizard and how Spidey kick’s some Lizard ass is the rest

Good 

This movie is closer to the comics, in this movie we really get to see how spider man becomes spider man, on how he learns to swing and how he makes his spider web blasters, one thing that has to be noted is that this spider man is leaner, meaner and faster, he moves like a spider, when he swings we get to see where he shoots his web and from where he swings, There are some POV shots in this movie when he is swinging which is nice

Andrew Garfield is a good Peter Parker and also makes a good spider man, Does anybody remember The Famous Spider Man – Mary Jane  upside down kiss well there is something interesting on those lines, Mark sure has taken a few leaves from both Sam Raimi’s Spider Man, comparisons apart there a few scenes which are equally awesome

Bad

Spider Man’s Costume Totally, No Offense, his head was made to look small, his eyes were small like a bugs and tights were all shiny like as if he is going to break into a dance, so less shine and more webs please and the story in certain ways was similar to Batman Begins

A little more time for the action sequences please, I really want to see more and some more sarcasm, The comics are filled with one liner's when spidey kicks ass

Ugly 

Nothing much in this department,

Marks- 8/10. This is a really good movie but I still like Sam Raimi’s Spider Man a wee bit more for a few reasons, when spider man was first released it really elevated Superhero Movies to a whole new level and second the film was just simply awesome
