This movie is awesome but in some parts it got boring and there was only one main enimy the Green Goblin. So I give this a 4 star outta a 5 star.

Good movie! I think that is all you can say except after seeing the next one it seems that is staying true with the series I hadn't seen the third one yet but if it stays with the comics it will ROCK!

they get to the origin story a little too quickly which would have kind of been okay if they added a little more action and excitement. I also didn't like all the stupid romantic stuff and cheesy superhero lines but still a great movie.

The second one is much better. This one is well done but it's filled with cliches and bad dialogues

Spider-Man won't change any minds until the series' second coming, but it does set a strong foundation for a series that begins as a great first date, then great one-night-stand but after it's all set and done, you realize how disappointing it all was (I'm looking at you, Spider-Man 3).

Anyways, watch the first two, and if you must watch the third one, please remember that it's not your DVD (or blu-ray) player's fault that it blows.

  Spider-Man brings the beloved comic-book character to the screen with both angst and action undamaged by the move.

  Maguire and Dunst keep Spider-Man on a high with their sweet-sexy yearning, spinning a web of dazzle and delicacy that might just restore the good name of movie escapism.

  Every action adventure needs a memorable villain, but no movie needs the strident intensity of Mr. Dafoe, who either has no interest in, or no grasp of, the sort of charmingly malign wit that Gene Hackman brought to "Superman," or Jack Nicholson to "Batman."

  Spider-Man, while hardly immune to these vices, is, like Mr. Maguire, disarmingly likable, and touching in unexpected ways.

  With centrifugal force on his side, Spider-Man dips, weaves, and whooshes past, up, and around the camera -- it's a rush, and it plasters a grin on your face even after you've left the theatre.

  What distinguishes Spider-Man from most other comic book movies is that the film is at its most engaging when its hero is out of costume.
