Spiderman 3

 

Spiderman 3 (2007)

• Director: Sam Raimi
• Seen by this director: Drag Me to Hell, The Gift, A Simple Plan, Spiderman
• Based on book: no
• Cast: Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, Thomas Haden Church, James Franco, Rosemary Harris, J K Simmons
• Personal “oh yeah him/her” reaction, i.e. have seen this actor in:
• Tobey Maguire – The Great Gatsby, Seabiscuit, Wonder Boys, The Cider House Rules, Pleasantville, The Ice Storm
• Kirsten Dunst – Many
• J K Simmons – Whiplash, La La Land
• Thomas Haden Church - The Peanut Bitter Falcon, All About Steve, Sideways
• Why? Doing the series
• Seen:  16 November 2024.      

       Most viewers and critics don’t seem to love this one as much as the first two. For me, once again, it’s a matter of casting. I just can’t care about Maguire, Dunst or the others in this mediocre story. Other actors would no doubt lift it, and next it will in fact be Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone.

       This one? Same, same. The sand thing is cool, otherwise, no better, no worse than SM1 and SM2.
