I enjoyed Spider-Man 3 quite a lot. However, there were so many problems with it that I ended up only liking it instead of loving it like the first two films.
Let me get to the pros vs the cons:
THE GOOD
The Effects: Birth of Sandman is the coolest effect on any film I can remember. Amazing! The fight scenes were also incredibly well realized.
The Humor: J.Jonah.Jameson had some hilarious moments - especially his first scene. Bruce Campbell plays a waiter( Maitre D really) in a French restaurant, and it is probably the best scene in the whole movie! Peter dancing!
The Action: The first Sandman vs Spidey scene was very exciting. Maybe the best battle sequence from all three films. CGI-Venom looked great in the whole four-minutes of screen time he got. All the fight-scenes were EXCELLENT, well choreographed and exciting.
The Acting: James Franco has improved much as Harry. Gwen Stacey was much better used than I expected.( And she was beautiful!) Thomas Haden Church was perfect for Sandman! Topher Grace did a fine job as Brock, not so great as Venom.
I guess that is a good intro for.
THE BAD
Venom has WAY too little screen time. His story was too rushed. Sandman is made to look like a good guy, then bad, and at some points we're not sure what to think. Do we feel sorry for him? Fear him? The filmmakers couldn't decide, and it shows.
