"We have a choice" -- this is one of the dialogues that Spiderman tells in the third edition of the franchise movie "Spiderman". Very true indeed. I had a choice of heeding to the review posted by my friends here or to this one here. I made the 'wrong' choice of still going ahead to watch this movie.
Assume that you are the director of a franchise movie like the Spiderman. What would you do to make the third edition of the movie become a greater grosser than the previous two movies? Elementary, Dr.Watson.
- Add more villains. More villains equals more stupid fight sequences involving the 'Super Hero' Spiderman
- Throw in a bit of revenge to add more dramatic action scenes
- Add some silly tiffs between Spiderman & his love interest so that the 'Super Hero' could show his human side
- Add oodles of sentiment to make the public sniff and sob during the movie
The director does all this and more. What we get is a English movie that looks more like a Hindi movie (Tamil movies have more 'Logic' these days in their stories) devoid of any logic. The director gets caught in his own web (Pun intended) and struggles to get out of it. The long winded battle between Spidey & the set of villains and himself goes on & on & on............
It is not that the movie doesn't have any worthy scenes or sequences or dialogues. It is just that those are few & far in between that the disappointment of watching this movie cannot be expressed but can only be wished upon others. The hilarious scenes are played out superbly by Tobey McGuire with so much ease that you are left dazed by his performance. Sadly, the above mentioned scenes come when Spidey feels lost in love and you are supposed to empathize with the Hero!!!
Last Cut: Get out of harms way by avoiding this movie at all cost. After all, 'we have a choice'........ Exercise it intelligently
Rating: 4/10
P.S: Spiderman 3 has broken all the box-office records in the USA & internationally. Read about it here.

:-) ! While it broke all movie box office records, it has been slashed by critics all over the world. The box office record is due to that the previous two movies compels to go for this regardless of what critics say.
