Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Sorry David, you're certainly entitled to a differing opinion, ...

...but I have to wonder if we were watching the same movie. FTR, I do "love this type of cinema" and while I consider the epic LoTR and it's sequels classics of the genre and the Harry Potter films consistently entertaining, this third Spiderman effort just doesn't measure up to the first two films in it's series. I could still recommend it with reservations, but it was disappointing.

>>> "...reportedly over $250 million..." <<<

I hope not, but the cost of a film is also about marketing. The quality isn't measured by production costs or, by implication, the FX shots one views on the screen. Sure, some of the effects shots were good, but none were earth shattering, IMO. The Producers probably should've ponied up part of that $250 million on another rewrite.

See my review down below (under Clark's comment about trying to catch Spidey). I'm not saying that you will agree with my assessment, but if you think back over the number of precious coincidences, inconsistencies and impromptu changes of heart that permeate this film's boggled storyline perhaps you'll begin to see my point.

Unfortunately, this time around Spiderman was defeated by serious logic flaws and a convoluted plot; those were deadlier villains than any he vanquished.

Cheers,
AuPh
