Review: An unnecessary, but very well-done reboot - One thing I wish about Spider-Man: that Sony would release the contract to Marvel Studios so Spidey can be in the Avengers where he belongs. But until that glorious day, Spidey will be forced to live on the silver screen all alone with a set of villains that have yet to be in the movies. Sure, I think I read that The Rhino will be in the next one, which is great since Rhino is one of the classics that, until modern CGI technology, couldn't really be done the right way. The previous three films by Sam Raimi were amazing...well, the first two were amazing, but not number three. Ick, not number three. I mean, Topher Grace as Eddie Brock? Did they even read the comic books? Come on Sam, no wonder there was a needed reboot just a few years later. And why throw in the Sandman AND Green Goblin's son back into the mix? It was too much, and therefore nothing was done to the fullest. In my opinion, they should've just stuck to the Venom suit and cast someone much more comic-book-related as Eddie Brock...someone with a more sinister voice. OK, this is just a ranting history lesson leading up to the real review of the reboot. I LOVED this film for many, many reasons. First, the casting was much more well-done. Andrew Garfield plays a much more believable Peter Parker (lankier, goofier, and much more natural on-screen as a nerd than Toby MacGuire). And they didn't include Mary Jane! They started much earlier in Spider-Man's history by giving us Emma Stone as Gwen Stacey. Much, much better in terms of true storyline adherence. In short, the acting was much, much better and tighter for another reboot, which was risky to begin with in my opinion. The best part of the film, was that they never "buffed" Andrew up when he was in the suit. The suit was loose, wrinkly, and he still looked like the little skinny guy that he truly is when Peter Parker. It was awesome that they didn't make Peter some ripped-up muscle-bound hero after the spider bite. Yes, they gave him the necessary augmentations like vision, spider sense, sticky hands and feet, dexterity, etc., but they didn't buff him. I don't know, for someone who's a Spider-Man purist like me, I thought this was a well-thought-out execution of the character. He looks feeble, even in the suit, and that really helped me root for the underdog even more. The Lizard, played by Rhys Ifans, was massive compared to our Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, which made the fights look awesome. Regarding character development, the storyline differences between Raimi's first film and this one aren't very big. Uncle Ben is still killed "accidentally" by a rogue criminal that Peter arrogantly lets go to "get even" with some minor injustice. The "with great power comes great responsibility" mantra is still intact, and it's a good lesson to learn...and painful in most instances. But Peter's scientific side is much, much more developed in this film because his webbing isn't organically engineered from his own body (as in Raimi's depiction). As in the comic books, Peter is a scientific genius, and develops his own webbing and shooters. Oscorp as a military industrial complex is also much more developed, though we never see hide nor hair of Norman or his son in this film. In summary, I think this reboot of my favorite comic book character of all time is well-done, surpassing - in my humble opinion - that of Raimi's vision. Marc Webb (really...Webb?) did a great job directing and the on-screen outcome is nothing short of brilliant. I'm very excited for the next installment.
