    I trust your judgment and all.....but it can't possibly better than the original super hero flick : Superman The Movie.



    It may be good......but not that good.

    Jut saw it. It was solid. Very good considering it's the third installment, but still seems to be the weakest of the three to me. Too much in the film that was not skillfully tied together and the pacing was off. Still, I enjoyed it and will probably add it to my collection when released in DVD.

    I thought all three 'villains' did their job well. In fact, I liked the acting all around for a comic book film, though I thought the emo-stlying of the symbiote influnced Parker was kind of laughable (and I don't mean the parts that were supposed to be funny). I could've sworn Parker was wearing eyeliner in those scenes...

    Saw it last night! Generally an excellent flick! In one or two places it gets a litte scraggly, but this doesn't prevent it from being a damn enjoyable film.

    The second is a more solid script/film IMHO, but the third is probably just as much (if not more) fun

    I definitely agree, I was surprised how positive the review was from my friend who also went to check it out, as he was not originally thrilled with the idea of the 3rd film.

    A good start to the Blockbuster season...now, please, please let me be happy when I see 28 Weeks Later this weekend.

    Shame the effects/action continue to be so manic... I'd much rather see fights etc slowed down a little so you can keep pace with them..

    I really enjoyed the film for what it was but can see how it has gotten some bad reviews.
    It could have gone like this:
    Kick off with clips during the credits showing Peter and Harrys friendship from childhood through to the events of the last two movies.
    Harry has a vendetta, he intends to destroy Peter and Mary Jane, he pays off theatre critics to give MJ poor reviews and destroy her career.
    The symbiote is found by Oscorp special projects devision - run by Harry - and he realises what it can do to a host. He takes the Golbin serum and then blows Oscorp sky high, he steals the symbiote and tracks down Spiderman. The two fight, the suit attaches itself to Spidey after he defeats Harry and then he goes home restless then symbiote bonds with him.
    Sandmans story plays out the same, Harry still has his memory and tries to play the hero and make on Spidermans the villian.
    Instead of black Spiderman comedy, Peter becomes more aggressive and occasionally goes off the deep end when taking down villians, he hunts Sandman and comes close to killing him until Goblin steps in trying to talk to him.
    In the end Goblin dies fighting Spiderman, MJ leaves town, Sandman tries to talk sense into Spidey and leaves, Spiderman rejects life as Peter Parker and Eddie runs to the church to commit suicide.
    Leave it as a cliffhanger.

    Next film have Peter tear the suit off and Venom torments him throughout it as he tries to redeem himself. In the comics Venom became a anti hero who often gets under Spidermans skin that could have worked well in the film.
