Oh and Five Guys is pretty solid. A little pricey but pretty good food.
I've went to see it twice now. My girl ended up wanting to see it so I took her.
She liked it better than the Tobey versions.
The cheesy scene with the basketball is my only real complaint. It would have been fine had it not been for that ridiculous looking dunk lol. They should have left that out.
I can live with Lizards face. I know it can be difficult to get some of those down to perfection. I hate two face's face in TDK as well, but whatever.
Both times I've went the audience clapped at the end. It's getting great audience feedback, and good critic reviews. The critics who are giving it bad reviews are all citing how the Tobey Spidey only came out a decade ago. I get that, but I don't think you can fault this movie for that. Spider-Man 3 was an atrocity and Raimis Spidey didn't really follow the comic or cartoon. While there are obviously similarities in terms of certain outcomes, The Amazing Spider-Man is going to have a different story arch. I just don't think, as a reviewer, that you can deduct points from a movie because it was a reboot. Review the movie as an individual movie and leave everything else out of it.
This reboot is a bit darker/grittier as well.
