Spider-Man 3
I don't want to build up the hype train too much for Spider-Man 3, but hearing two fans rave about the film and then having an official report to back them up is hard to pass up.
Spider-Man 3 Screening Report
The screening reports yesterday claimed that Spider-Man 3 was the best Spidy installment yet. Things were off to a good start, but sometimes fans can get a bit over-excited. Fortunately, the official press is beginning to announce their own opinions of the third Spider-Man installment and they so far agree.
"Spider-Man 3" is packed with stunning special effects such as the crumbling, morphing Sandman and an evil black suit that brings out a person's dark side, but the characters also show a psychological complexity rarely seen in action movies.
"It's better than 'Spider-Man 2'. He's more human, there's more tension between Peter Parker and his Spider-Man character," said Kumiko Hayashida, a movie critic who writes for online entertainment Web sites.
"The story is better, more psychological. And Japanese people like animation, so they like this story because of the comic."
"To see Spider-Man cry so much was different," said Gerry Penacoli, a critic for Extra entertainment magazine, after seeing the "Spider-Man" preview in Tokyo ahead of the evening premiere.
"It's more intense -- you still have great action but certainly it's the deepest of the three. Kids and adults will learn so much more from this than from a movie that's just wham-shezam," he added.
