Starring: Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Denis Leary, Martin Sheen, Sally Field.
The
teen romance plays well due to the chemistry between Andrew Garfield
and Emma Stone. Superhero wise, however, the film is not great. The
use of the same air solvent concept as Batman Begins (2005) leaves a
feeling of familiarity and removed threat. This threat is further
removed by a terrible villain, a CGI Lizard, leaving the audience
pining for Raimi's version. Garfield puts in the best performance he
can, but still seems to end up talking about algorithms, leading me
to wonder why I wasn't watching The Social Network (2010). Distinctly
mediocre.
2.5/5
