Spiderman has become a very busy man.
He has 3 villains to fight (best friend Green Goblin, Sandman and Venom), 3 women to deal with (girlfriend Mary Jane, new babe Gwen Stacy and Aunt May) and 3 of himself (Peter Parker, Red Spidey and Black Spidey). No wonder the movie is that long.
The main hype of Spiderman 3 is about him in the black suit, representing the internal struggle between the good and bad. However, it became just a small part of the story in other big messes Spiderman is embroiled in. As to how he really went to the dark side, we never really know.
Tobey Maguire seems rather clumsy (and fat!) in eyeliner and combed-down fringe, absolutely uncomfortable in playing a baddie role. Kristen Dunst reinforced the fact that she could only do one thing well – scream (and not sing) while hanging from the top. Their good friend James Franco has matured adequately, though only half good-looking. A pity.
This third, and possibly last instalment packs lots of special effects and visual entertainment. However, it lacks the big heart that the first two instalments had.
Too many villains do not make a good Spidey movie.
Spiderman 3 – Lots of action with less heart
