Spider-Man (2002) Review


Hello guys and welcome back to Movie Reviews! "With great power, comes great responsibility"! Man, it's a great line and very thought provoking. But I'm not here to talk about this line but the actual movie as a hole. Before the MCU and before Spider-Man was even a part of it, we got the first live action appearance of everybody's favorite web crawler in 2002, with Sam Raimi as director and starting Tobey Maguire. I was so happy when I found out, I'm a big Spider-Man fan, that I got a ticket on the day it was released. And that was my first theater experience. So, the movie is excellent. It combines very well the web swinging action with a good amount of heart, emotions, some humor and very good performances, mainly from Tobey Maguire. The special effects, now look a bit dated and not very good but I don't mind that, as long as the movie is good. Alongside the first "X-Men", it started the whole superhero movie madness that we have today. I would have liked the humor to be more present plus the Green Goblin's costume is just not working. It's a origin story that was original at the time but now it's common knowledge. It's a story about discovering you're true purpose on this world, about love, friendship and what is like being a hero and what makes a hero, the choices he has to make in order to protect the people that he loves. Great movie, with some editing mistakes, great action, awesome soundtrack with a kick-ass theme song by Danny Elfman, great performances, J.K.Simmons does the best portrayal of a comic book character ever and overall a well done movie. 8/10

OK guys, that is my review for today. Next up is "Spider-Man 2". Until then, take care and keep on reviewing!
