Spiderman 3

Spiderman, Spiderman, does whatever a spider can, or does he?
With this week comes the release of that Hollywood favourite Spiderman 3! This year’s huge blockbuster that knocked everything for six this summer, but was all the hype worth it? (And should you invest in a black Spiderman costume for Halloween?)
Well one thing’s for sure, you can fling on your spidey jammy’s once more kiddies, Spidey is back and he doesn’t suck (he bites)
So how much better is this movie than the last? Considerably. Spiderman 2 was quite simply the original film with a different bad guy. An octopus instead of a goblin. Spiderman 3 however actually begins to introduce new storylines, yes you will still see him hanging off that US flag for hours on end (oh the patriot!) but this film really brings new directions to the movie franchise…
One part definitely worth a mention is the, “Spidey turned black” scenes. Where Mr Maguire dons black eyeliner, a fitted black shirt and walks with his best ‘hey ladies’ swagger. Clearly these scenes were playing on the comic book aspect of Spiderman, and viewed with a certain amount of (enormous) tongue-in-cheek, add to the amusement of the film. Whatever you do, please don’t take these scenes seriously.
At points the storyline can get a tad messy. At the height of the action with three bad-guys on the run. The Goblin, Venom and The Sandman. In my honest opinion, being somewhat of a comic book geek myself, and admiring Venom as one of the greatest bad-guys of all time there is part of me that wants to scream out and tell you all how he died far too easily and not nearly enough screen-time was devoted to him, but as a non-psychotic viewer, it was sufficient.
The computer graphics are absolutely breath-taking; no doubt due to the ridiculous amounts of money thrown at the production by Sony and the pressure to produce a winner by Marvel. But it was worth it. I am annoyed to an extent at how such an average film can make such other-worldly amounts of money but it does make sense.
Spiderman 3 epitomizes the phrase “for all the family”
