Spider-Man


Spider-Man, 2002. A teenager gets super powers, and his friend's dad gets killy. Directed by Sam Raimi. Written by David Koepp, based on a comic book by Stan Lee & Steve Ditko. Starring Tobey Maguire, Willem Dafoe & Kirsten Dunst.

Concept: 3/4 (Good)
Story: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Characters: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Dialog: 2/4 (Indifferent). Lots of horrendous crap, but also a fair amount of greatness. I guess it's too late now to hope for a J. Jonah Jameson spin-off series.
Pacing: 3/4 (Good)
Cinematography: 3/4 (Good)
Special effects/design: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Acting: 1/4 (Bad)
Music: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Subjective Rating: 6/10 (Okay, 2/4). Shamelessly, gleefully hackneyed.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.2/4 (Okay)
