The Amazing Spider-Man Review!!

Hello Again To All! Today i am going to review a movie that has so far been having mixed reviews everywhere i look for reviews. This is a Reboot of in my mind a great trilogy of movies! *in my opinion the sole reason this movie was made is because Sony DID NOT want to give up the rights & give the rights back to Marvel* This Movie so far is a Box Office success and it's well deserved. Yes the movie i am talking about is.....

Yes The Amazing Spider-Man!
Now i can understand why this movie is getting crapped on by a lot of people because the fact it is an reboot. I can understand that the old trilogy is 5 years old but in their defense The Hulk reboot was 5 years after the first one as well *AND SPIDER-MAN 3 WAS NOT AS BAD AS THAT SH*T BOMB KNOWN AS 2003'S HULK!! UUGHH I HATE THAT MOVIE!* so i can see where the people behind this movie is coming from. But the question is..is this movie good? Well i am here to tell you.........It's pretty good. it met my expectations. I Liked it.
The Characters:
Now i get into the characters in this movie and they did their jobs right! i liked the performances in this movie. first and foremost Peter Parker/Spider-Man:

Andrew Garfield did a great Job as Peter. Personally i like Tobey's take on the character more than his but i don't take anything away from him at all he did a very fine job. The way he acted around Gwen is the same way most geeks would. And as soon as he got his powers he had more confidence which is normal but sometimes he got a little too confident at times, but overall a very good take on the character to the movie.
next up Gwen Stacy!!



Emma Stone did a fine job as Gwen. She defiantly seemed like a very confident girl in the movie. But in some scenes she basically did the traditional girl in movie role *which is do something stupid & risk getting killed or caught* *spoiler alert*  but THANKFULLY she didn't get token by The Lizard at the end!  which is A MAJOR DIFFERENCE between her and Mary-Jane in the Original trilogy. Overall She did an Good Job!
Curt Connors/The Lizard:

To Be A little honest here i liked His Performance but he was just a cookie cutter villain in this movie. His intention was completely Predictable , and he didn't seem sympathetic to me at all. he wasn't like Doc Ock or  The Green Goblin in the original trilogy where they were captivating in their own way, and The Lizard didn't feel as sympathetic as Doc Ock especially. Rhys Ifans did an okay Job and i liked it!
Other Characters:
They all did a very fine job from Dennis Leary to Sally field they all did good with what they had and i enjoyed their performances.
STORY:
Now the story of the film is where i really liked it but it didn't have that "Untold Story" that they was promoting for the movie. It was basically the same movie as the first movie back in 2002! and that's the main problem i had with this movie. I knew everything that was going to happen. BUT! I did have a good time watching it, because it was basically a different version of the first movie and i really liked that a lot.\
VISUALS/ACTION SCENES:
The action scenes in this movie was Great! everything from Spidey's web swinging action to his few fights with the Lizard they were all great! and i love the way Spidey moves in the costume its great. it didn't give me the feeling of swinging as much as the first trilogy but it did look awesome!
OVERALL:
Overall i'll say it's a movie where it did have it's problems but as a movie it was very fun. But as a spider-man  movie it was just an okay ride. to the people who love the original trilogy you'll like this one. but to the fans that didn't really like the trilogy or thought it was "too cheesy" you'll love this one. I'll Give it an B-. I enjoyed the movie a lot but I'm more of a fan of the less serious and "more cheesy" Spider-Man Like in the past! But i think the sequel i'll enjoy a lot more than this one!
