After reading some reviews on here, some are dead spot on - why watch (or remake/reboot) something that has already happened before fairly recently? Its all too familiar and its like watching a rerun - plus you are PAYING to watch a rerun and you should NEVER have to pay to watch a rerun. Even if its played by a whole different set of actors.

I guess its down to my expectations before the movie - i was expecting the remake to be darker and true to life - just like what Nolan did to Batman, or Daniel Craig as the new 007. But if you darken spidey abit then it will not work, cause how can you darken a nerdy Peter Parker? Remember Toby being taken over by that oily alien in Spidey 3? Doesn't work, mate. You are veering off the track, fanboys and virgins don't like that.

In my honest opinion, this 'reboot' has one and only purpose - for movie studios to generate loads of $$$ from us suckers... yet again.... HAH
