Tobey Maguire reprises his role as Peter Parker, who wrestles with his superhero identity in the $336 million-grossing movie. Bonuses: bloopers, photo galleries, music video, commentaries. The Marvel comics hero returns for more high-flying fun in this third installment in the series. Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) is up to his usual Spidey tricks, attending university classes as an awkward geek, then quickly slipping into his red-and-blue suit to save New York City from various villains. And there are villains aplenty. Thomas Hayden Church blows in as the Sandman, an escaped convict whose molecular structure is destroyed in a particle accelerator. The freak accident gives him the ability to form and reform from piles of dust. While the Sandman sifts through the city streets robbing banks, Spidey must also contend with his onetime friend, Harry (James Franco), who has taken up where his father, the Green Goblin, left off. Harry chases Spider-Man down on his goblin glider, hurling pumpkin bombs. But Spider-Man's biggest battle is perhaps within himself, when he is taken over by meteorite ooze--a substance that gives him great power, but also turns him into a vengeful, selfish jerk. Throw into the mix Peter's new competition at the Daily Bugle--the ambitious, sneaky Eddie Brock (Topher Grace)--and Peter's relationship troubles with Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst), and SPIDER-MAN 3 weaves a tangled web indeed.
Director Sam Raimi's playful style and his delightfully campy screenplay hold true to the spirit of the Stan Lee comics, and he does an excellent job of hitting all the right superhero notes. Raimi has created an action film that is a feast for the eyes, but comes with fully rounded characters and a moving moral lesson to boot. The special effects are astounding, but Raimi makes sure the film isn't all action and no talk--he makes Peter's struggle a human one, and one that we can all relate to, regardless of our web-spinning ability.

Spider-Man 3 Movie Review Average Rating: (2.9 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews That's not Venom at all
Venom is meant to be big and buff in the comics. On the movie he was this skinny think that looked exactly like the black suited Spider-man except for the teeth. He didn't even have the tounge that he has in the comics. It got boring because you never even got to "see" Venom up close because he kept opening and closing his face. Whats the point of that?

I'm not gonna be to harsh it was alright...
Well I have two complaints.One is a complaint that goes for alot of these super hero movies,Hulk,Fantastic four,and all the spiderman ones,and that is the boring factor.I don't know if it's the acting or the directing,or the comics themselves.But you'd be crazy not to admit that these movies have this problem.Also yeah,Venom is much better buff...

Saw it at the theater,
And wasn't real impressed. They should have quit after the second one. I did enjoy seeing the shots in Cleveland, as I am from there, but that's about it. I think without superstars like Wilem Dafoe the movies take a beating.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No So so
This movie has everything but the kitchen sink worked into the script and the result is an overly complex plot with too many elements to effectively enjoy and this diminishes the quality of S3. I think the credibility of the plot also suffers significantly from this attempt to overwhelm us with "exciting elements". The most nonsensical element is a black gooey malevolent mass from outer space that just happens to land near Peter Parker, causing this squeaky clean kid to act like a juvenile delinquent...give me a break. The most tiresome part of this movie is Harry and his mood swings between friend and adversary. Thankfully, he's now dead. Still, the Sand Man was very well executed (even wore a green striped shirt as in the original comic) and this movie is not without its merits. A solid "three stars".

Based on the bestselling series of children's fantasy novels of the same name by Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizzi, THE SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES follows the adventures of the Grace family, newly transplanted from New York City to an inherited home in the remote New England woods. Angry with his mother (Mary-Louise Parker) about the move, the sulky Jared (Freddie Highmore) begin to explore the strange old house, and discovers a magical tome written by his great, great uncle Arthur Spiderwick (David Strathairn). Soon Jared and his twin brother, Simon (also played by Highmore with the aid of seamless special effects), are drawn into a realm of goblins, boggarts, and ogres--a reality that coexists with the human world. By the time the boys' older sister, Mallory (Sarah Bolger), is in on their secret, the siblings are steeped in a conflict with the evil shape-shifting ogre Mulgarath (Nick Nolte), who will stop at nothing to get Spiderwick's book.
