May 4, 200719 yr I know it hasn't been released yet but most theaters are having a special showing at midnight tonight. I know Morehead is and I am thinking about going before I head back to Pikeville tomorrow!

May 4, 200719 yr Going to see this tomorrow morning, that's the good news. The bad news 99 percent of the reviews have all agreed it's a good movie, BUT they agree that the film introduces too many characters and don't give each of them enough time on screen, tie up too many loose ends too quickly. BUT I will still watch and enjoy it.
May 4, 200719 yr I went and saw the movie tonight. While it was good, it never really grabbed you and sucked you in. I think with the way MJ found out in Spider Man 2 it really shocked everyone, made you excited and what not. This one never had that really. The audience loved it, and I thought it was good. But honestly I'm thinking Spider Man 4 is not likely to happen now.

I can assure you after this film makes another billion worldwide, Sony will move forward with a part 4 whether Tobey, Kirstin, Sam are involved are not. That may ruin the franchise if they do another without those 3, but they won't stop just because the original actors say no. Sony has already said they want to make up to 6 films and I believe they even penciled in a release date for part 4. lol
May 4, 200719 yr I think Tobey and Sam will be back, but I have serious doubts about Kirsten. I'm eagerly anticipating going to see this tomorrow afternoon. First movie of a big summer!

May 4, 200719 yr Well, I just got back from seeing it and while I won't give any spoilers, I will say don't get your hopes up. I can't recall in recent memory the last time I was this disappointed with a movie with such high expectations. I have seen the words "tired" and "last legs" used in several reviews to describe this entry and that's actually being kind. I won't go so far to call this film goodness awful, I only use that when describing any movie starring Freddie Prinze Jr. Everything about this movie feels tired, even the actors feel like they are going through the motions. I love Tobey and Kirstin, but they seem completely bored by the proceedings. Yes, the action scenes are great and the filmmakers did exactly what worked so well in the 1st two, but for some reason it doesn't seem to gel here. The theatre needs to give each person some pancakes with your ticket, cause you get PLENTY of syrup moments in this movie. My goodness, I understand each character has an arc and you want to draw out emotion, but it is WELL OVERDONE. It probably is a good thing that all involved might move on. I really don't know where Sony can go with part 4, even with new actors and a new director, you need a completely new take on these characters. Thankfully, I FINALLY saw Grindhouse after sitting through that crap and got a chance to watch TWO decent films and actors that actually cared about what they were doing. Made the day somewhat worthwhile. Since I'm already typing out a novel, the trailer for Shrek 3 was attached to Spiderman 3 and I likely will avoid that movie as well, just bad, bad.
May 4, 200719 yr General feelings: I managed to get a seat last night, and I was actually entertained by this movie. Yeah, it had its comic-book moments, but guess what? IT'S BASED OFF OF A COMIC BOOK! So that was no big shocker. Sure, it could have been better, but I felt I got my money's worth. *SPOILER ALERT* And here's where I get critical: I have developed a special place in my heart for the brand new super-hero, Emo-Spider-man. I was on the edge of my seat awaiting some AFI or PANIC! At the Disco to bust out at any moment that the character was on screen. (That was a good spot of sarcasm I just laid out. Those who saw it know what I'm talking about). Also, what was with the random speech by the Osbourne butler? It's like "thanks man, I've been trying to kill my friend and you wait until NOW to tell me???" That's all for now.
May 4, 200719 yr I just got back from watching it and liked it a lot not as much as the first two but this is still a sweet movie.
May 4, 200719 yr I just got back from watching it. It was entertaining and well worth going to see. I'd rank it as the 2nd best in the series with Spiderman 2 being the best.
May 4, 200719 yr Very entertaining and a 1000% better than the one we saw last week "The Invisible" what a piece of dreck that one is .
May 5, 200719 yr Certainly worth the price of admission. Pretty good stroytelling and action, but it is a little rich in terms of new characters. However, I must say that they (the graphics and sound departments especially) nailed Venom. I think that character may be worth seeing the movie on his own.
