The Amazing Spider-Man

3 stars

20 Mar 2022

On Saturday 19th of March 2022 where I watched a new vision of the story of Peter Parker who becomes the hero Spider-man but this time Andrew Garfield plays him for two films and there are called The Amazing Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man 2. We also have another new set of villains. So are first villain we meet is Dr. Curt Connors who becomes The Lizard. The film is about Peter Parker who is an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Like most teenagers, Peter who is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter who is also trying to find his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy but can they find a way to be together, or will they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents' disappearance - leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors where his father's former partner works at. As Spider-Man he is set on a collision course with Connors' alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will have to make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero. So this film is different to the first three films that I have watched because Tobey Maguire did not have parents and he can shoot real webs out of his wrists when Andrew has to make a device to make his web come out but they both have one thing in common and that was they both made their suit. The other thing that is different is that Andrew did not get muscles but Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland does get muscles and a six pack chest. The last thing that is different is that Andrew does not get the girl because she sadly gets killed but Tom Holland gets his girl and so does Tobey Maguire. This film review for The Amazing Spider-Man has been given a three star review which means the film was OK because I thought that Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland play Spider-Man much better than Andrew Garfield does but that is my own opinion of the actors who do you think is better to play the hero?. I have all ready wrote a review for the second film which is called The Amazing Spider-Man 2 you can find it on the review page of the film so go and read it to see what I have wrote and how many stars I have gave it. So my next film review will be Spider-Man Homecoming where Tom Holland plays Spider-Man and Peter Parker along with Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man.
