    why does Willem Dafoe need to wear that giant green goblin mask when it’s identical to his normal facial expression

    tobey maguire’s acting in this gives off the same energy as me dissociating in the middle of a conversation and then pretending i understood everything

    Sam Raimi is the true mvp on this one. He paid so much attention to even the little details on this move and because of that, we are all richly rewarded.

    When you realize it was only 2002 when this movie came out and even with that, this movie can be considered up to par with the movies of today, you realize that it’s definitely one of the classics.

    Tobey Maguire was made for this role. Gonna be hard for me to shake the image of Spider-Man when I see him on other films from now on.

    Movie was very engrossing. All thanks to Tobey Maguire for delivering such a believable performance.

    It has everything I expected for in a superhero film and more!

    The greatest part about this is Toby Maguire’s acting. He made everything so much more believable that it was hard not to be engrossed in the movie.

    Sam Raimi sure knows how to make a good superhero film. He was able to give so much depth to Spider-Man, a hero we only know from comic books.

    To sum it up, this is the first Spider-Man film with everything leveled up.

    It’s amazing how they were able to balance action and human element in this movie.

    It’s not a surprise that this is considered one of the most successful superhero movies ever made.

    This film is one of the reasons why 2002 was a great time to be alive!

    You know a film is good when you’re able to quote something from it. “With great power, comes great responsibility”

    I’ve read the comics and I can say that this is truly the comic book come to life!

    Man, that scene with Uncle Ben broke my heart big time! Made me even think of my life choices.

    Lot of respect for Tobey Maguire for doing well on this one. He didn’t do well in his previous films but he was able to do justice to Spider Man on this one.

    It’s 2019 and I still get chills every time I watch this film!

    You can take your Tom Holland and Andrew Garfield with you. Tobey Maguire is the best Spider-Man of all time and no amount of CGI can change that!

    Jane Hall 11 月 7, 2019

    Films from the 2000s really are way different from the ones we have now. I wish all origin stories could be as good as this one.

    BradleyStewart 11 月 7, 2019

    I keep telling people that this is the real Spider-Man and I will always stand by that. Tobey Maguire the real MVP!

    LoganWright 11 月 7, 2019

    This is one of the few films that you can watch when you’re bored and still be excited about what’s going to happen (even though you’ve watched it over and over already and you’ve memorized almost all of the lines).

    Justin Lopez 11 月 6, 2019

    So many Spiderman movies out there but this will always be the original. Though the other ones have better CGI and maybe action sequences, none can match the plot this one has.

    Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man captures the spirit of the comic book hero and it’s still one of my all time favourite superhero movies. It lays out the perfect blueprint for a superhero origin story that I love revisiting every year or so. I’ve always been able to relate to Peter Parker growing up. Tobey Maguire and Co. delivered a great interpretation of the characters in a way that still can not be matched.
