Still, this is about as good as a comic-to-film adaptation gets. I'd almost have liked it better if it were awful instead of showing so much unfulfilled promise. It's not that Spider-Man is a bad film, it's just that it's not a good film. There will be another moving target then and I'll be off the hook until the next big film I review which will start the cycle all over again. Why is it a curse, you ask? Simple – no matter what I say about this film, I'm going have to install asbestos email filters and put my family into hiding until Attack of the Clones comes out, which I thankfully won't be reviewing. It is my destiny, it is my curse, to review Spider-Man. Who am I? You sure you really want to know? If anybody told you I was just a writer who got lucky enough to get paid to see movies, they'd be wrong.
