Spider-Man 3: 4/10
A horrible movie to end the trilogy. This movie took a big risk after two successful Spider-Man movies part of the trilogy. They went all out as if it was a TV series summed up in one 2 hour long episode. Let's get to the pros and cons!
CONS
-Too many villians and characters from the spiderman universe.
-CGI was horrible.
-90% of the action scenes looked like cartoon
-Too much was going on at once
-The plot was unknown
-Not much action we were expecting from black-suited spiderman
-It took 1 hour until the symbiote decided to finally bond with Peter
-The relationship between Peter & M.J. was very stupid
-Captain Stacy letting Aunt May and Peter know who was Uncle Ben's true killer after 5 years was a pathetic decision by the movies' script writer.
-Not to mention the fact that Harry's butler, Bernard, waited until Harry had no friends to tell him the truth about Norman's death.
-Spider-Man was no longer a vigilante/menace. He became New York's heart. Honesty, it's better to have the city view Spider-Man as a menace. in the comics, he was always viewed as a menace.
-Peter letting Gwen kiss her in front of Mary Jane was dirty.
-Showing a quick cameo of Flash Thompson after 5 years of was just late timing. Obviously it's good to show up to someone's funeral but we should've seen or at least known what happened to Flash after high school. He was never mentioned after he broke up with M.J. in Spider-Man 1.
-Movie was rushed and went by really fast. 2 hours and 20 minutes for a movie that had a lot going on all at once.
-No final Spider-Man swing??? The past two Spider-Man movies, we saw a final swing in the end. In this we didn't. All we saw was Peter & M.J. tearing up as they were hugging and dancing in the end.
PROS
-Tobey Maguire had another great performance!
-All the action scenes were sick!
-Black-suited Spider-Man was what we were waiting for.
-Music was amazing!
-We got to see Peter's dark side
-We got to see how Spider-Man views revenge; is it killing or by getting over it?
FINALLY
All in all the movie was very disappointing. This movie was lucky enough to receive a 4/10 from me. I know this movie failed because director Sam Raimi was running out of time to finish the movie. This movie could've succeeded in many ways. I would've cut the Venom saga, the Stacy family, the butler never telling Harry the truth, changing Uncle Ben's killer, showing Flash Thompson, giving Spider-Man the key to the city, having M.J. being a singer now instead of an actress, and Eddie Brock. This movie should've focused on Harry being the main villain and keep sandman as the side villian. That's all I'm going to say about how Spider-Man 3 shouldve been filmed. Let's get back to track. Sony was already planning to part ways with Saim Raimi and do a reboot before Spider-Man 3 even came out. I miss Tobey Maguire a lot. I watched the Spider-Man trilogy before I went to kindergarten. Hopefully, we get to see Tobey in Spider-Man: Multiverse. I'm going to wrap this up by saying Tobey Maguire is the best spiderman we've ever had. No one can replace him. He'll forever be my spiderman and my favorite superhero. #1.
