Your friendly web slinging hero has come back in this reboot of the famous movie series. Andrew Garfield is now the lead role playing the character of Peter Parker in his younger days when he was still with his first love Gwen Stacy played by Emma Stone.
The story starts with Peter being left by his parents to the care of his Uncle Ben and Aunt May played by Martin Sheen and Sally Field. The movie shows how Peter faces his high school days being bullied, falling in love, and finding the truth about his parents. I really loved how the movie was able to incorporate that Spider-Man is just as human as he can be by having him use the web shooters, this shows just how genius and creative he can be. The only thing I disliked about the movie was the action scenes, I felt it were too simple and lacked luster. After each fights, I felt like saying "so that was it?" and I really was looking forward to it because the first 3 movies of Spidey had great fight scenes. Like when he was fighting Doc Oc on the train, or when he was fighting Venom in the end of Spidey 3.
For me the movie was good but not great, good because it mostly centered on Spidey's life, but I really wish the movie left me with great feeling that made me want to watch it again or look forward to the next one. The Amazing Spider-Man is stated to be a trilogy, so maybe the third one would be the one I would enjoy watching.
The Amazing Spider-Man is still showing in your nearest theaters, watch it in IMAX version if you want to have a better grasp of the movie.
