Spider man 3 - The dark one


Spidey suffers from the same infection as most of the third part of triology movies suffered. Take X-men, The Matrix, Harry Potter and many more movies. You will find the third part of the movie to be the least favorable one. I am afraid Spidey will be in the same state. But that is just my speculation. We have to wait and see how it goes.

After much anticipation and counting the days for the realease, we booked the tickets for the movie on May 4th 11:45 PM in IMAX theatre. I was thrilled seeing the movie in the huge IMAX screen. So we went to the movie and when we came out of the theatre, I was really irritated not by the movie but IMAX. The problem was that the screeen was so huge and its in the shape of a dome that we couldnt see the entire screen during the fight sequences. It was like being inside the scene where your eye sight is limited to the center alone. So when the spirder man starts swinging from the left of the screen, before I can see him clearly, he goes off the screen in the right and I have to spend most of the time turning my head.

Now lets talk about the movie.

Bad things first:
1. Tobey Maguire looks like a kid when he cries. He actually cries like a kid who doesnt want to go to school.
2. Too many characters. So obviously they were not able to give proper time to each character in the movie.
3. Spidey suit looks old. I think they used the same suit that they created for Spiderman 2.
4. They could have left Venom for the next movie with more time given to the black suit. Sometimes you feel, the black suit works only for few scenes. Rest its the same good old Spiderman.
5. Spiderman - Hero of the people????? How did "Daily Bugle" allow that to happen?
6. New Goblin could have lived for the sequel. It would have been cool to see Spidey fighting along with Goblin.

Good things as we know:
1. This spin is really going to make you dizzy. Amazing camera movements.
2. Brilliant action sequences. The first fight between Spiderman and New Goblin is in single word "Awesome"
3. As usual, tried for a good story line.
4. Too many villians. My favorite one too - Black suit. Cant argue with the line "How long can a hero fight darkness until he finds it in himself"
5. Last action sequences. The animators have done the job very well.
6. Promise that there will be a sequel.

Overall, its really a good entertainment movie though they could have done better by reducing the number of characters and more importance to the story line.

And looking at the introuction of Inspecter Stacy and her daughter Gwen Stacy, they better include Carnage as the villian in the next movie.

"How long can a hero fight darkness until he finds it in himself"
Answer: Till the movie ends.
Go! Spidey! Go!
