Spiderman 3 - Movie Review

The most enjoyable part of my trip to the temples, was the last part. I persuaded my father to stop at Mayajaal on return. Wednesday evening 6 o clock. Spiderman 3 ticket available. Yay!!!

The movie was simple superb. A great finish to the trilogy. Sam Raimi took extreme care not to leave out anything in this third part (I don't wanna call it the last part.... want some more). He brought in more issues than peter parker could handle. And made it look like there was no way out. But the good thing about this movie is, each issue came one after another. When Green Goblin died, Sandman came, when sandman died, black spidey came, Mary Jane left him, when black spidey died, venom came and so on. It was like more than one spiderman movie. And as always everything ended well. But the Bollywood-like climax, with Harry turning good and coming to the rescue and getting killed was a little old and expected. Wish Harry had lived. But as my brother pointed out... Anyone who cannot be paired had to be killed. And the same for anyone who will not forgive (venom). With sandman there was a scope for some moral ending and a chance to boast of a theme of forgiveness. As if Aunt May's periodic moral education classes were not enough. you feel like saying " Who wants that in a Superhero movie? We want action. " But Raimi sees to it that we don't get that feeling. With so many action scenes and no compromise on special effects, you are forced to excuse one or two scenes that tend to drag.
On the whole it was a visual treat and by far the best Spiderman movie ever made. If there was one thing that was totally missing in all the aspects of this movie it was compromise.

When Spiderman 2 released it created a record opening, which was broken later by Pirates Of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. That is now broken by the latest Spiderman installment. Can't wait for this record to be broken by Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End...
