In 2002 Sam Raimi
directed the first in his Spider-Man
trilogy. This year, Marc Webb has directed the first in his The Amazing Spider-Man trilogy. That
small difference in the name change can be continued throughout both films.
Small changes. Small, unnecessary changes. The
Amazing Spider-Man is so similar to the 2002 film that it is unclear why
Webb felt it necessary to make his film. From identical scenes to the same
themes, the differences Webb has brought to the origin story of Spider-Man are
not significant enough to warrant this film being made only ten years after Spider-Man. The one hugely positive thing
to note about The Amazing Spider-Man
is the 3D, which is crystal clear and well accommodated for. The only negative
about the 3D is a negative that exists for all 3D films – it dims the screen
and if this can’t be fixed, the technology is not worth having, as the
difference when you raise the glasses is huge.
