With the plethora of super hero movies coming this year I thought I’d do a bit of catching up with this decent reboot of the Spiderman story. It felt more akin to the comic books than the original trilogy and for me Andrew Garfield was a better Spiderman than Toby Maguire. Peters development felt more realistic in terms of how he learns to deal with his new found power, although both the relationship with Gwen Stacey and the use of Lizard were under used and almost felt like they were tagged on. Better then the original but overshadowed by the Avenger series of movies. Plus did anyone else notice that the movie was directed by Marc Webb…..very apt name!
