One of three movies I've ever walked out on... after 5 mintues.

I rented Star Wars III (Revenge of the Sith) and this over the weekend. After suffering through the last Star Wars, an unmitigated disaster, I actually thought better of this sorry work - at least it showed that there is flesh underneath the makeup, something George Lucas forgot years ago.

I'm a sucker for space-based science fiction, so I liked this movie. A 12? No way. Granted, recycling James Spader and Lou Diamond Phillips is pretty laughable, but this is a B-movie and should be viewed as such!

Spider-Man 3 is the Lawrence Of Arabia of the superhero movies world. It is epic, sprawling, magnificent, meaningful, beautiful. Anyone who doesn't enjoy this movie must be a pretty spoilt brat or a cynical old misery. For near on three hours it envelops you in its world and makes you CARE about the characters. How's that for a special effects laden blockbuster, a movie with characters that matter? The comedy works, the emotion works, the action works. Everything Raimi tries comes off. The set pieces are particularly astounding, ranging from an out of control crane to Spidey's numerous battles with the meaty villains on show. Like others, I think this is by far the best of the three (though I loved the first two as well). It's a modern-day classic, an enrapturing fantasy that exhibits all that's best in modern movie making. An experience not to be missed.… Expand

Crap, crap, crap. A concept that never germinated into any kind of playable action, with the actors reduced to showing off buff physiques and trying to say their lines with a straight face.
