Spider-Man 3 (Mastered in 4K) Blu-ray - 4K Ultra HD Movie Collection for Home Theater & Marvel Fans

Please note that I've never read any Spider-Man comics and am simply judging this and any other Spider-Man film on their merits as films in a superhero film series. Thank you for your understanding.When this film first came out, I quickly got the impression that people either loved it or hated it...no real middle ground. I thought it was very good, though I stand firm by my stance that Spider-Man 2 is still my favorite in this series. I do think that Venom, played by Topher Grace, came in kind of late in the game while the Sandman, played by Thomas Haden Church, was absolutely great, becoming my second favorite villain in the series. Tying him into the murder of Uncle Ben also contributed to this, as it made me wonder exactly how our favorite web-slinging hero would handle this. It was nice to see Peter becoming comfortable in his duel role, showing that you don't need a billion dollars or an alien origin to accomplish this. It was also nice to see him let his fame as Spider-Man get to his head, reminding us all how seseptible we can be to such cockiness when life's just going our way. It was really nice to see Mary Jane actually doing something more than needing to be saved all the time, even if her blandness was only slightly lessened. Harry Osborn's continuing story ark only got better, though it suffered from being rushed at times, a problem that plagued this entire movie. There had been talk during production about spliting this movie into two flicks and, in my opinion, the church scene would have been the perfect end to part one. I do wonder about the symbiote...it seemed to come a bit out of the blue. I'm sure it was more established in the comics, but here, there was barely even ever a mention of outer space in this series and this thing from somewhere among the stars just suddenly shows up? It seemed to jump the shark just a bit. But for all my wondering and complaining, this was still a film I greatly enjoyed and I'd reccomend it to anyone. Enjoy.
