They are redoing the movie again!!!! 10 years after they first told us the story of Peter Parker and how he became Spider-man!!!
Why??????????????????????????????
Still, i heard good things about it. And i do think that Andrew Garfield is a pretty good actor. Coupled with the good reports i read on my frens' FB comments, i decided that i will watch it - even tho it was not onmy anticipated movies of 2012 list (see here).
The wife however was not interested. So i went on my own - ended up sitting next to a smelly stinky geek and in front of some fella who was kicking at my seat all thru the show.
Still, i enjoyed it! Told the wife that if she changes her mind, i would watch it with her again! She asked if it was really that good until i want to watch it again. I told her that it was good enuf for me to not mind watching it again!!!!
So it's not gonna go on my list of all time fav movies. I still enjoyed it. And perhaps more importantly, i thought it was way much better than the original Spider-man!!!
Why? Well, check out my post here for reasons why i thought so!
But having said that, i am having trouble comparing this with Spider-man 2!!! In fact, i think that while i enjoyed The Amazing Spider-man and think it is better than Spider-man, i dun think it is better than Spider-man 2.
After all, Spider-man 2 had a much better villian - Doc Ock, played so well by Alfred Molina!
But it may not be a fair comparison as TASM had to deal a lot with laying the ground story - which it did much better IMHO compared to Spider-man.
Maybe it would be fairer to compare Spider-man 2 with TASM 2!!!
But for now, Spider-man 2 remains as my fav Spider-man movie. Here is the brilliant trailer to go with the show:-
