I saw this at our local IMAX. I didn't expect to be thrilled and wasn't. I did expect to be entertained but wasn't. I did not expect to be bored, but I was. The extreme close-ups in IMAX provided much more info about everyone's pores than I ever wanted to know. The wonderful sequences of Spidey crawling and swinging about were the only things to perk up about. Even the elegant Rosemary Murphy managed to irritate. Cardboard cartoon characters? Well, of course. It's Spiderman! Don't let all of that talk about it being a relationship movie fool you. It does not work as either a cartoon adventure or a movie about people with real feelings. Somehow the relentless abuse heaped on poor Peter Parker, the ludicrous Molina villian, boring love story, and all that exact-same-level of extreme violence seemed better left to the comics where you can turn the pages at your own pace.
