My family and I greatly enjoyed this movie! We saw the midnight premier in 3D and thought it was wonderful. My 17 year old daughter has always loved Spiderman and has been counting days for its release since January! Her advice is to go into the movie without trying to compare it to the original, because there IS no comparison. The actors are completely different and the storylines aren't very similar either. She loved it! Andrew Garfield is no Tobey Maguire, but he did a great job. We took a group with ages 58, 39, 20, 17, 15, 13. All of us thought it was just spectacular. All of us would recommend this to anyone who wanted to laugh as long as be thriled and sitting on the edge of their seats for 2 hours and 16 minutes!
