The untold story begins.

The Amazing Spider-Man has no reason to exist. Spider-man is a hero everyone knows. Hes been around for so long everyone is familiar with his origin, comic fan or not. Its basic pop culture. Then you have the Sam Raimis movies. Everyone saw them. They made loads of money and theyre always on tv. They are entertaining movies. Spider-Man gave us a good origin story in 2002. This movie simply wasn't needed. Now I gave it the benefit of the doubt. Theres Burtons Batman and Nolans. Maybe this was a different Spider-Man. A more dark vision perhaps! Maybe the movie spent a few minutes on the origin and then wisely moved on with its story. Maybe... well maybe it wasn't just another rehash. A shameless attempt to remake, or how they say it these days, reboot the same idea with minimal changes except the cast. I was naive.The whole movie is about Spider-Mans origin. They traded Mary Jane for another love interest and held off on The Green Goblin because that would be too much rubbing it in the face for the fans, I guess. We get Gwen Stacy and The Lizard. The rest is same old, same old. The same uncle Ben plot, the same scenes about making the suit, learning how to control powers, the search for the criminal Spider-man lets get away with horrific results. Same thing. Except everything is done without a spark of energy or creativity. Raimis movies were energetic, flowing with excitement. They were new. Seeing Spider-Man on the big screen, webbing all over the city, fighting The Green Goblin, it was amazing. We didn't have The Avengers back there, or Iron Man. This was like a dream come true for comic fans. The Amazing Spider-Man smells of old cheese. I tried to take the movie for what it was but it was impossible. My mind would not let me. I knew what was going to happen next. I knew all the plots! Id seen it all before! But even ignoring that the movie just does not work. Its slow, turgid with an unlikable Peter Parker and a CGI lizard for a villain. Parker is a whiny, self centered idiot. His relationship with aunt May and uncle Ben is never fully explored and what little there is consists of Parker being a rude jerk for no reason at all. The movie has one thing going for it. The cast. Sally Field and Martin Sheen are great with what little material they have. Emma Stone is sexy and sweet which is her thing and again she pulls it off brilliantly. Rhys Ifans is decent as Curt Connors and surprisingly enough I loved Andrew Garfield as Spidey. Yes, seriously! He looks perfect for the part and he did his best with the horrible script. Hes charismatic and brought his own touch to the role instead of copying Toby Maguire. If the movie is even slightly original its because of him. Some of the action in the last third of the movie is also spectacular. Spider-mans movements when fighting are really well done as is the web-slinging. The action is well directed and exciting and the movie sets up a sequel rather nicely. But its asking a lot to go over the material everyone knows for two hours for a few minutes of cool action. The movie plays it so safe it hurts. Its competent but never brilliant. Tedious but far too long with little spots of action but few and far between. I hope in the sequel this Spider-Man can find its own style and its own place. Given space to grow and evolve, on the strength of the character and Garfields acting this could be the weak start to a new amazing super-hero trilogy. Then again, maybe im just naive.
