Reason's why it's better than previous versions 5. Peter Parker is way geekier 4. Aunt May has attitude 3. Sticks closer to the original comic series 2. Spider Suit is Tighter and lastly... 1. Gwen Stacey |

Ehhhh I think the previous spiderman movies are better. Plus the new spiderman is another f****** pretty boy. |

Haven;t seen it myself but have been told that the character is lot closer to the comic in this than the other movies. And that it was pretty similar to Batman Begins which does make me somewhat more interested. |

The first Spiderman was a classic. The new one just feels like a recycling of the old one with a new villain. |

I loved this one. Unfortunately it's yet another origin movie, which we seem to be getting way too much of these days... but I loved how it was revamped for the screen. Felt much, much closer to how it should be. I'm definitely waiting for a second one! Hopefully with Venom AND Carnage this time, considering how that last piece of shit went. |

Perhaps he is not as nerdy as you or other Spiderman fans may have liked but it certainly was clear he was 'nerdy'. If this new film makes a special effort to draw attention to this insignificant aspect of the character, then I can only assume it will be detrimental to the film as a whole. |

Not seen it myself, wasn't very impressed by the trailer though, looked like a 3D overload. Maybe if this film was made much later than the Tobey Maguire ones I'd be more inclined to see it, there's just something off-putting about remakes/different adaptations produced not long after the original/previous adaptation. |

its a great film, glad they didnt just rehash the first film, this is completely different ine very way, characters have different personalities, the villain isn't a rehash from the first 3 films, the finale was satisfying the fights were incredible. It was a well done film, way better than spiderman 3, better than 1, no where near as good as 2 but 2 is hard to top |

I cannot stand Toby Maguire and am not that fond of Kristen Dunst {I liked her in Interview with the Vampire.}. On the other hand, I really like Emma Stone so... Yes, This Spiderman was far,far better then the other three. Even if it didn't stick to the comic book 100%. |

Personally I found Tobey Maguire to fit the role of Spiderman much better then Andrew Garfield. Sure they closely adapted it more to the comics(Especially with Gwen Stacy!) but honestly I thought Tobey fit the bill of Peter Parker(with the kind of geek look) better then Garfield. Not that I'm not happy with the movie but since this is a live action movie based off the comics the actors do play a huge part in this. On a side note. Emma Stone... Yum... |

Very good movie. I think it's on par with the original origin movie. The sequel has quite a bar to overcome though, as Spider-Man 2 is still considered one of the best superhero movies of all time. |

I agree completely with OP. I was always imagined Peter Parker to be geeky and awkward. I think Andrew Garfield did a much better job than Toby McGuire, imo. And no, I am not just saying that because Andrew's a "pretty boy" or for his British accent. I really don't find him that attractive and I couldn't care less about his accent. |

Not to mention it took her twenty years until people realized she could kind of act (Melancholia). The Amazing Spiderman isn't bad, it's just tragically squeezed in between The Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises and subsequently overshadowed. |

She's always had good reviews for her acting since the very start of her career, though. The only reason Melancholia attracted more attention was because it was her "comeback" role and by a renown director. She would have gotten more awards than just Best Actress at Cannes too if Lars hadn't gone on his nazi rant. I agree about The Amazing Spiderman being released at a bad time. People are burnt out from The Avengers hype and starting to get psyched for The Dark Knight Rises. Its still doing pretty well though, and fantastically overseas. |

I really enjoyed the new Amazing Spider man. I had a few little nags about it though (Peter Parker having a skateboard, The Lizard not having a snout, and the scenes where Spidy was web swinging hurt my eyes without the 3D), but over all I thought it was a great movie. Is it better than the first movie in the original movie? I don't think so. I loved the Original Trilogy! :D But Hopefully this one could be better. ;) |

I truly enjoyed this movie. Peter Parker acting more neerdy does wonders for this film. Acting is part of movies, and does come into play in how well done a movie is. This movie was a lot of fun, was it better than Spider Man 2? No, that being said, I could see this series Spider Man 2 being quite amazing. It has a lot of potential. |

Pretty good movie, I liked it better than the original, although it still feels like the first of a series (basic bad guy stuff). Will there be more of the new Spiderman movies? Anyway, I'd say 7.5/10, give or take half a point, not sure. |

My favourite Spiderman film. I like Andrew Garfield better than Toby Maguire. And Gwen Stacy is miles better than Mary Jane. The weakest part is villain though, and the recycled origin story. |

5. Peter Parker is way geekier geek =/= good character he isn't really a geek, he's more like an enigmatic hipster that we learn nothing about 4. Aunt May has attitude how the fuck is this a good thing and how does it make her a good character 3. Sticks closer to the original comic series vague and doesn't mean that it's better. if the adaptation doesn't do anything new or interesting with the source material, then there's really no point in it existing. but the film doesn't really stick to the comics anyway. peter parker and spider-man are virtually the same even though spider-man was supposed to be an alter-ego; a manifestation of everything peter parker CAN'T be. 2. Spider Suit is Tighter that doesn't make the suit better 1. Gwen Stacey doesn't make the film better |
