The Amazing Spiderman

 
The Amazing Spiderman was a very interesting reboot of the original Spiderman.

It captured the story of Peter Parker in much more detail, involving his Father Richard Parker.

And i do feel that Andrew Garfield made a terrific performance as Peter and Rhys Ifans character as Dr Curtis Connors was dark, terrifying and spontaneous. And then there was Emma Stone bring the hot intellect into the film as Gwen Stacy.

But with positives comes negatives. I feel that the villain of... the Lizard NOT Dr Connors but the Lizard didn't reach the same standards of the original villains of the likes of Dr Octopus, Green Goblin or Sandman. He seemed to have rushed himself into devilry and mischief to fast and from one measly argument.

I didn't like the fact the all famous quote "With great power, comes great responsibility" wasn't used in the film....

And i also think that the new Spiderman has been downgraded to much compared to the old. As i think that the new Spiderman didn't have as much agility, coordination, strength and technique as the old making him an easy target for the Lizard.

But with the downgrade comes the more realistic side to it, which makes a good change. It just wont please the kids as much.

What the the new Spiderman had over the old wasn't ability though, but character, putting more humour and personality into the equation.

Overall the new Spiderman makes a good change and doesn't make me want to say that the original was better, but makes me think that it will keep the legacy going and hasn't let marvel down.
