Completely ignoring the trio of Sam Raimi (2002 -2007), witnessing a new beginning of Spiderman, this time on the skin of the actor Andrew Garfield and directed by Marc Webb.

"The Amazing Spider-Man" has been criticized even before its final debut in theaters, which is obviously a big mistake. Interviews with director and cast, spoilers or trailers are not sufficient to analyze a film production, which made the movie Marc Webb be erroneously underestimated. Like any long and, above all, like any adaptation, the film has its basic mistakes, which are relatively small when one looks at the reaction of people who leave the theater.

In this version, Peter Parker (Garfield) is still one high school nerd who is not well regarded by the popular, feel a strong attraction for the beautiful Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone) who did not take long to notice the presence of the young. As a child, Peter had been abandoned by their parents and the reason it had never been explained and has since lived with his uncle Ben (Martin Sheen) and May (Sally Field). Behold, one day he finds some object of his father and goes through them to check their past and following clues discovered an old friend, scientist Curt Connors (Rhys Ifans) and through it tries to find out more about his father, and it gets involved in his research, a long study of mixing genes of different animals.

Personal Comment:

The special effects are good, although the composition of the villain at times seem a little bizarre, but in general, please. The 3D does its part, makes a difference in certain scenes. A film that recreates the mood and the characters played by great actors, the plot tries to focus more on the story of Peter rather than the villain, but ultimately fails in this regard, because the script can not create anything as interesting. Incidentally, the script is pretty obvious, does not go beyond the paths already traveled by other films and is almost impossible not to compare it to the original, which in my view, not the beats. A film, somewhat pretentious, you want to be better than the first, but fails.
