Other than special effects, which were very good, the movie falls flat. It was too long. Andrew Garfield, who was Spiderman and Emma Stone his love interest, both had fair acting ability. In addition, they were miscast and seemed much older that the 17 year old's they were portraying. The story itself was less than exciting and took a while to get going. The draggy beginning was concluded with a confusing ending showing a clip of jailed scientist Connors talking about Spidey's father, and this appeared after the ending credits. Once the movie got into the Spiderman aspect, things became more interesting with more action and cool visual effects. Rhys Ifans gave a very good performance the Scientist.
Cons bad acting, slow
No, I do not recommend this movie.

I found the movie confusing. I couldn't determine what was real and imagined by the lead. I was disappointed with the lack of dialogue. I became bored as the same theme seemed to drag on. The acting in the film was good, but unfortunately, the story didn't hold my interest for very long. The best thing about this movie was the music.
I very rarely give any movie such high ratings. The film was of extremely high quality. I found the story very enchanting, well made and uplifting. Excellent for both children and adults of all ages. This has become one of my favorites in the animation arena, because of the warmhearted story, the location of New Orleans and because of my love of jazz music too.
