Spider-Man 3 (2 DVDs) Reviews

I have to admit to having done everything in reverse here. I watched Spiderman 3 before watching Spiderman 1 and 2, we own all three DVD's and for some reason I wanted to judge the series on its most recent effort, I think this film is a real mixed bag and a disappointment overall, having read some of the comic books, this feels like a ...  Read the complete review

"Spiderman 3" is the third in the successful Spiderman franchise of movies and was released on May 1 2007, it was directed by Sam Raimi and stars Tobey McGuire, Kirsten Dunst and James Franco. --------------------------------------------- The Plot: Peter Parker ( Tobey McGuire ) is starting to feel ...  Read the complete review

There's nothing more refreshing than watching a franchise that had a reasonably good first movie descend into absolute farse, especially in the noughties. We could expect it in the 80/90s where sequels HAD to be bad (Terminator 2 the obvious exception) but we expected more a decade later. However I'm quite fond of rubbish ...  Read the complete review

This is the third in the series of Spiderman movies and was released in 2007 by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Starring Toby McGuire (Spiderman), Kirsten Dunst (MJ), Thomas Haden Church (Sandman) and Topher Grace (Venom) Peter Parker (McGuire) starts the film believing he has finally hit a belence between being ...  Read the complete review

After the very good second film, I was anticipating the third film so when I saw it at the cinema, I came back out feeling dissappointed. Unfortunately, the "third sequel curse" struck this film and is the worst of the three films. The SFX are awesome, actually, they are the best of all three films but ...  Read the complete review

In the majority of cases sequels are never as good as the original film. Worse still are the type of sequel that assume you've seen previous films and so launch themselves mid story with minimal explanation to any critical prior plots. Spiderman 3 is typical of this. Apparently it took almost an entire film to explain what ...  Read the complete review

This film continuse the story of Peter Parker/Spider-Man and his battle for good and evil. In this film he battles against 3 enimies, Venom, New Goblim and the Sandman. Peter also suffers some depression in this film, all due to his girlfriend Mary Jane Watson/Kirsten Dunst. In this film Peter binds with an alien creature ...  Read the complete review

note: also appears on Freeola.com and my film website, ShaunMunro.co.uk! Thanks! Whilst one of the most hyped films of 2007, Spider-Man 3 is also one of the biggest disappointments of that year. It is a film riddled with problems, most of which, shockingly, are glaring errors easily removable in the rewrite process. In ...  Read the complete review

There are certain films in a franchise that get stuck with the retrospective label "only for the most dedicated collector". They come across as the seemingly universally panned instalment of a series; the one everyone loves to hate; the proverbial weakest link. As years go on we discover that the creative team behind the ...  Read the complete review

I have thoroughly enjoyed Sam Raimi's Spider-Man adaptations with few criticisms. While I have never had full confidence behind the casting choices, the first two films were well scripted, well directed and with production values finally meeting the standard required for a comic book adaptation. Sadly, I felt the excellent standards set ...  Read the complete review

Spider-man returns for a third time to defend the city of New York from the various villains and mutants that get thrown at him. --- Plot --- Despite a perfect relationship with MJ once again Peter Parker runs into trouble when a meteor crashes with a substance on it that heightens the hosts personalities, ...  Read the complete review

Spider-Man 3 is of course the third in the series of this wonderful Action and Adventure film and once again I think it has given an excellent impression on me. The film is fairly recent having only been released in November 2007 and what I really liked about it was how amazing the computer animated parts were and the entertainment as a ...  Read the complete review

Having read the comics over the years i was excited but a little worried to see how the film adaptations would turn out... and to be fair the first two spiderman films were very good, especially number 2 but then came along number 3 and my word what a mess and waste of money!!! Ok spideman/peter battles to find out who he ...  Read the complete review

The first Spiderman is one of my favourite superhero movies, up there with The Dark Knight and Iron Man. Spiderman 2 was decent but wasn't as impressive as the first and this third installment in the series is the worst yet. I watched this in the cinema thinking it was going to be a huge success as it marks the series as a trilogy... but ...  Read the complete review

I am a huge Spiderfan but have only recently got round to owning this on DVD.And I loved this film from the opening credits, the way it shows you a little from the first two films in the title sequence is clever and leads you into the third film nicely. Here we see a much more angst ridden Peter Parker with his life falling ...  Read the complete review

Spiderman 3 continues the story of Peter Parker, who, when bitten by a genetically altered spider, developes the ability to climb walls and shoot web from his wrists. Now he is balancing his work/study life and his duties as Spiderman, for the first time in this film franchise he seems quite happy and even plans to marry ...  Read the complete review

I received this film for Christmas, as it was one that I have been keen to watch for sometime but just never got around to it. I really like superhero films and the previous two Spiderman films were very good so I was eager to try out the third instalment. Toby Maguire takes the lead again as Peter Parker and though he is not my ...  Read the complete review

I was really looking forward to this film but feel it is the weakest in the series. It's over long and has to many villians in the film. Like the first and second film they should have just stuck with one. Everyone reprises there role and are very good in it but its the overfull plot that makes this to much to enjoy. The effects are ...  Read the complete review

I have always been a huge fan of Marvel's "Venom Saga" so I was very excited when I saw advertisements for this film, after my disappointment of the second Spiderman film. But this only proved to be a bigger disappointment. Tobey McGuire can't act. Kirsten Dunst is a good actress but doesn't the chance top shine ...  Read the complete review

Unlike the other two spiderman films, Spiderman 3 did dissapont and didnt live to its high expectations, but did we get everything out of the movie that we wanted? The plot-life seems to have worked out pretty well for peter parker, this time round the city of new york loves him, he got the girl he so much adored and all of ...  Read the complete review
