Spider-man (2002)

The thing that could have helped this movie was the spectacle rating. It wasn’t boring by any means and I love this movie. It just didn’t wow me outside the classic flying blades in the burning building moment. It did a good job as far as origin stories go. This movie was a fabulous addition to the budding superhero landscape. The soundtrack was also very on point. I feel everyone has to see this movie. Maybe that is the nostalgia talking, but Sam Raimi crafted something special.
