Review - The Amazing Spider-Man

What can I say? It's rather amazing. Although I was initially hesitant about a reboot coz Sam Raimi's Spiderman movies are still kinda new and a couple of them are quite good.

And of course when I found out Andrew Garfield is Spiderman... I was all freaking out and stuff... Not too sure if he could fill the superhero requirement... but I was wrong.. boy, was I wrong... Garfield proved to be an adept Spidey, better than Tobey Maguire.... he had the right amount of hotness, I mean, geekiness and that smoldering thingy that he has that makes him a good Peter Parker... whereas Maguire was geeky but he was also kinda nerdy and a bit too squeaky clean...

Emma Stone... now this girl, I like... Zombieland? The Help? She rocks and she was good in this movie as well... although her role is kinda minor, but then again, all the damsels in distress never do get big roles...

The story goes like this... and yes, it's the same story like the previous movies, coz, hello? It's from the comics and kinda set in stone... Parker got bitten, Uncle Ben dies, Spiderman rages, meets villain, fight to the death... oh, and kisses the girl... but this time, there's a bit of a difference when it comes to the romance...

And the fighting... very cool... very unique... nice... all in all, not a bad start to a reboot trilogy... wait, did they say this was gonna be another trilogy?
