I rewatched Spider-man last year. I was astounded by how quaint this film was. It was this nice little simple superhero film that ends with a fistfight in a building somewhere....no sky lasers, no cities being destroyed, no alien army, no alternate dimensions, no overstuffed cast of characters. It's just a movie. And in this day and age, that's refreshing. It's sad that if a film like Spider-man were made now, it would be considered boring and lame.

In hindsight, even with the modern problem of Sony possessing the rights to Spider-Man and the toing and froing surrounding which movies he can be used in, I think overall it has been a positive thing that this movie was made. It helped to kick off the MCU (yes, I know that its not a part of it), as it was made at a time where marvel hadn’t managed to create anything compelling (the punisher, later daredevil), but created a buzz around a marvel character, and demonstrated that finally technology could allow Spider-Man could move in a live action fashion that was believable (albeit a bit too fluid). I saw this movie with my brother and we both left the cinema exhilarated.

I feel really conflicted about this one. I love the energy, the fun, the colour, the fantastical element to it, I liked Peter's relationship with his Aunt, liked the way New York is shown, loved all the comedy with the Daily Bugle, I thought William Defoe was a classy actor, I really liked the wrestling scene in particular. It has some problems though yeah, the spider-man mask completely hides Peter's face so we can't see his emotions or any acting whenever he's spider-man. Thought MJ was a weak character, just a plot device to create conflict between Harry, Norman and Peter. The motivation of the Green Goblin is also vague, what does he actually want? Found Peter a little too passive and meek in this one, he gets more interesting in Spider-man 2. The CGI was good back in 2002 but it looks really dated now in some scenes now. I saw it when I was about 12 though in the cinema with my friends and it was the first superhero film which really grabbed my attention ( I didn't like the x-men films).

To be exact, Roger gave this movie 👎 2.5/4 Stars. So it’s not like he hated it...

Can someone tell me what Roger Ebert meant by this? "Consider the scene where Spider-Man is given a cruel choice between saving Mary Jane or a cable car full of school kids. He tries to save both, so that everyone dangles from webbing that seems about to pull loose. The visuals here could have given an impression of the enormous weights and tensions involved, but instead the scene seems more like a bloodless storyboard of the idea." Was he saying there wasn't enough consequence?

Ebert has many valid points. And many people online prefer the 03 hulk, including me.

I completely agree with Ebert on this one,It's just that if you compare the effects from the other movies they look far superior.

In what movie from the early 2000 were there a better CGI human models in action? The human CGI still looks fake to this day. So no, your complaint is bullshit.

Spider-Man needed to talk more! he needed to be jokey; my ONLY complaint about this film is that Tobey didn't free himself as Spider-Man

Good little tip from these reviews is to talk in particulars not just in generals, pick a particular scene to make your point and discuss that little scene.

I disagree with everyone it seems... I thought TASM did alot on its own, and to it's credit. This Spider-man, since it was the first major motion picture, had to put everything on screen from Spidey lore it could, or else people would complain. TASM wasn't restricted by this, and therefore didn't need to include the Daily Bugle, JJJ, etc. I found it more entertaining, and Andrew Garfield is a WAY better Peter and Spider-man. Toby McGuire is so wimpy, unlike the real Spidey.

Another one you got wrong Roger im afraid up there in Heaven R.I.P the Tobey Maguire Spiderman was awesome as was the second shame about the third and the two Andrew Garfield disasters and i think the Tom Holland version is the best with the second and third films the first was just ok in my opinion mainly a lot to do with Michael Keaton who was amazing in it but the third i love because it brings all three of the Spidey's together so you have a reference point about how different their versions were even Garfield was great in it and also brought back Willem Dafoe as Green Goblin and Alfred Molina as Doc Octopus two of the best villains from the Maguire movies and both Dafoe and Molina were awesome in it too 👍🏻
