Movie Review by B Movie Ben
July 24th, 2007

It can't be stopped. It's self-sustaining now.

"He knows a hero when he sees one. Too few characters out there, flying around like that, saving old girls like me. And Lord knows, kids like Henry need a hero. Courageous, self-sacrificing people. Setting examples for all of us. Everybody loves a hero. People line up for them, cheer them, scream their names. And years later, they'll tell how they stood in the rain for hours just to get a glimpse of the one who taught them how to hold on a second longer. I believe there's a hero in all of us, that keeps us honest, gives us strength, makes us noble, and finally allows us to die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be steady, and give up the thing we want the most. Even our dreams."

I went back to look at this one, my favorite, again. If it wasn't for the success of Sam Raimi's Spider-man 2, there would be no 3. The direction, sound, special effects, and the characters all combined to make an enjoyable adventure.

This had Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst) at her best and really focused on her relationship with Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire). Alfred Molina was fantastic as Doc Ock. I am not a comics fan, but I do love Spider-Man and this is the best Spider-Man movie.
