Spider-Man 3 Movie Review

Thursday May 3, 2007
Sam Raimi and his co-writers Ivan Raimi and Alvin Sargent apparently adopted the more is better approach with what could be Raimi’s final film of the Spider-Man franchise. The desire to include more villains, more action, and more romance gave birth to a Spider-Man 3 bloated with unfulfilling storylines, underdeveloped characters, and a film that’s literally all over the place.

    Terry's obsession with his 'Middle Eastern-looking' neighbor is so complete that rather than look for a new job, he fills his days and nights watching his neighbor through his window, following him when he leaves for work, and contacting the FBI about his suspicions. As his obsession takes over and his personal life falls apart, Terry's prompted into taking action without help from authorities. Read On...
