Nobody was really expecting all that much from the Spider-Man
reboot when it was announced a couple of years ago, especially since it would be
released only 5 years after the end of the "original trilogy", but the
inspired choice of 500 DAYS OF SUMMER director Marc Webb was a good first step,
as were most of the casting announcements, but it wasn’t until we posted our own
2 very positive reviews of the film (Chirs Bumbray gave it a 9/10
HERE,
and JimmyO gave it a 8/10
HERE) that I really believed that the movie could actually be good!
Our own Eric Walkuski was also lucky enough to sit down
for interviews with most of the cast from the film (two of whom seemed to
dig our site’s name…it’s not a porn site, people!), all of
which you can check out below. But at this point, it’s time for you to
POST YOUR OWN REVIEWS in our
strike back section (or to your MFC profile) and we’ll continue to update the
Rotten Tomatoes and Movie Fan Central reviews over the next few days as well.
All that said, after
a very successful weekend box-office haul and mostly positive reviews,
it looks like a new Spider-Man trilogy has just begun…
