Product Description:
Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, James Franco, Thomas Haden ChurchDirector: Sam Raimi

Amazon.co.uk:


How does Spider-Man 3 follow on the heels of its predecessor, which was widely considered the best superhero movie ever? For starters, you pick up the loose threads from that movie, then add some key elements of the Spidey comic-book mythos (including fan-favorite villain Venom), the black costume, and the characters of Gwen Stacy and her police-captain father.



In the beginning, things have never looked better for Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire): He's doing well in school; his alter ego, Spider-Man, is loved and respected around New York City. And his girlfriend, Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst), has just taken a starring role in a Broadway musical. But nothing good can last for Spidey. Mary Jane's career quickly goes downhill; she's bothered by Peter's attractive new classmate, Gwen Stacy (Bryce Dallas Howard); and the new Daily Bugle photographer, Eddie Brock (Topher Grace), is trying to steal his thunder. Enter a new villain, the Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), who can transform his body into various forms and shapes of sand and who may be connected to Peter's past in an unexpected way. There's also the son of an old villain, Harry Osborne (James Franco), who unmasked Spidey in the previous movie and still has revenge on his mind. And a new black costume seems to boost Spidey's powers, but transforms mild-mannered Peter into a mean and obnoxious boor (Maguire has some fun here).



If that sounds like a lot to pack into one 140-minute film, it is. While director Sam Raimi keeps things flowing, assisted on the screenplay by his brother Ivan and Alvin Sargent, there's a little too much going on, and it's inevitable that one of the villains (there are three or four, depending on how you count) gets significantly short-changed. Still, the cast is excellent, the effects are fantastic, and the action is fast and furious. Even if Spider-Man 3 isn't the match of Spider-Man 2, it's a worthy addition to the megamillion-dollar franchise. --David Horiuchi

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - So-so Movie, Great Blu-ray!
The movie itself is a sheer disappointment after seeing 2 great films from Sam Raimi. The third one is just all over the place. Raimi couldn't juggle the many characters in the film.

The blu-ray on the other hand is fantastic. Great quality on Video and Audio. Decent bonus features too... The packaging is a little plain but I bought so cheap here at amazon, and it arrived fast!

Good stuff!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't step on that, it might be Tobey Maquire!
I can't believe how seriously some of these reviewers are taking this franchise, I'm sure I spotted the word 'symbiotic' in one of them. This is comic book stuff and you really shouldn't be getting excited over it unless you're below the age of consent. As Alec Guinness said to a young 'Star Wars' hero worshiper, 'promise me you won't watch it again'. I don't even earn any residuals, and I say also, 'watch something else', anything that doesn't involve someone with super powers. A good sign is if ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Major disappointment
I liked the first Spiderman film, and I loved the second one. The second movie really got it right in terms of the villain, he was great to watch, and the action scenes between him and Spidey really made the film. Also at this stage of the films, his relationship with Mary Jane was still kind of evolving and it gave a nice side element to the film itself.

This third movie has missed a chance to do even better. The villains? Well the alien "Venom"? Doesn't even have a face, a personality ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A Stumble but not a Drop
There are certain films in a franchise that get stuck with the retrospective label "only for the most dedicated collector". They come across as the seemingly universally panned instalment of a series; the one everyone loves to hate; the proverbial weakest link. As years go on we discover that the creative team behind the project was put under pressure by their backers or studio, which helped to suck the soul out of a well-loved series. We know that Raimi was under pressure to include a character he didn't ... Read More
