Movie Review :: The Amazing Spiderman (2012)

One of the world’s most popular characters is back on the big screen as a new chapter in the Spider-Man legacy is revealed in The Amazing Spider-Man™.

Yes, Spidey’s back! 

And this time played by Social Network’s Andrew Garfield.

The new Peter Parker! 

The Amazing Spider-Man is the story of Peter Parker, an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben ( Martin Sheen) and Aunt May ( Sally Field). 

 Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today.  Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone), and together, they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. 

As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents’ disappearance – leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors (Ifans), his father’s former partner.  

So there’s a hot hero and a hot damsel. Not forgetting the villain in this movie! 

As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors’ alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.

Having a fear of lizards, scenes of the villain made me cringe and covered my face with my cap. *shivers*

Thanks to Sony Pictures Malaysia and Malaysia’s Hottest Bloggers I got to watch this awesome movie.

Overall, this movie was pretty damn awesome, packed with superb action and breathtaking 3D effects! 

Psst. Having a cute Spidey was a plus! Heh heh.

My ratings : 9/10

My advice? 

Catch this movie at the nearest IMAX Theaters in 3D!!
