Review of The Amazing Spider-Man Movie

Hello everybody! What I am reviewing today is the newest movie that has been released from Marvel Studios: The Amazing Spider-Man. Directed by Marc Webb and starring Andrew Garfield ( Social Network) as Spider-Man and Emma Stone ( Easy A) as Gwen Stacy. This movie is a kind of reboot of the Spider-Man universe after Sam Rami's Spider-Man trilogy. In my personal opinion this movie knocked it out of the park and I found it way more entertaining than the original trilogy. I also think that Andrew Garfield was a way better Spider-Man than Toby Maguire. ( Sorry Toby.) Emma Stone in my opinion did a great job of playing the love interest to Peter Parker. My hope for the continuation of this movie is that unlike the comic, Gwen Stacy does not die. Quick fact: In the comic, it was the classic spider-man villain the green goblin killed Gwen Stacy. My problems with the movie is that one, Uncle Ben does not say the classic line. Do I even need to say it? My other is I thought some scenes with the Lizard were a little overly played and felt a little like a horror movie from the 50's. But honestly, I think the pros out way the cons. I recommend this movie to fans of spider-man, and fans of all the marvel studios movies.

Super 8 movie review

Hello readers! I am bringing a new segment to the blog which is movie and book reviews, and pop culture updates. The first movie review I am offering up is a review of the movie Super 8. This movie was written and directed by J.J. Abrams, and produced by Steven Spielberg. This movie takes place in the late 70's, with a cast of young, very talented actors. I really loved this movie except lets just say that the American Air-Force does not get the best portrayal in this movie. Other then that I just plain loved this film. It captured the feel of classic 70 type sci-fi movies and was just awesome. Highly recommended by me unless you are part of the American Air-Force or know someone in the American Air-Force. That's all for now folks, have a great New Year!
