Just perfect...
How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.
Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
What the hell did they do to this movie. Jamie Fox, "wow", so. Wrong for this movie. Booo
Can we bring Tobey Maguire back please. I love Andrew Garfield and all but as Spiderman he lacks any real emotion as being the Spiderman character he is supposed to fill. Spiderman is a teenager still in high school and Garfield looks like a grown 25 year-old man. The motivation and reasoning for the blue electro "no-one-cares-about-him" villain portrayed by Jamie Fox is completely abysmally stupid. "Spiderman doesn't remember me from that one random time I said hi to him and even though I LOOK NOTHING LIKE I DID BEFORE he should remember me". Shut up. This villain character sucks and is forgettable in every way possible. I'm glad Gwen died in this movie honestly. It's a perfect representation of this catastrophe that was "The 'Amazing' Spider-Man" franchise. Was it enjoyable? not really as the SGI for Jamie's character made it look like he had an extra 20 chromosomes and was not believable whatsoever. Even at the age of 13 I didn't understand why electro dude hated Spider-Man so much. It made no sense. You ruined my favorite superhero and I will hate you forever for it. Waste of money and time, but it is the perfect example of what NOT to do in a movie. Thanks
This is a poor remake of the interesting series but the fact of the matter is that most important crux is missing. Heavy technology can't beat the deeper dimensions of human emotions. What was missing is the antagonistic attitude of Harry; poor dealing with electro. Can't the spider-man still be reformative in his approach rather than finishing all the evil doers. The effects and sound do add but little. The entire innocence of spider-man is turned into a witty role that is not much suited.
Every super hero needs a super villain. This episode introduces us to Electro (Jamie Foxx) and the Green Goblin (Dane DeHaan). If that wasn't enough Peter (Andrew Garfield) must deal with his on again/off again relationship with Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone) and he discovers the truth about his father (Campbell Scott) and Oscorp.I love these modern superhero blockbuster updates...except for maybe that "Green Hornet" thing. What the heck was that about?I will also say I disapprove of the character send off, but I'll get over it. The film contains drama and heart as well as good action scenes. If anything Spiderman was able to take care of his foes a little too easy.The film sets up for a crazy action sequel. Break out the popcorn.
