A great adaptation of a comic book for the big screen. The movie gives you a feel for Peter Parker's awkwardness as a teen, and the transformation he makes to become Spiderman. The love story between Parker/Spiderman and . will remind you of the relationship between Superman and Lois Lane. Where you the viewer are in on the secret, and kind of hoping that can figure it out. The special effects were mostly great. But, some of the scenes of Spiderman flying through the streets on his web looked a little fake. But, did remind me a great deal of the animation from the comic books.

　　 I think fans of comic book style action adventure will find the movie to be a lot fun.

　　 I thought all of the acting performances were great. Particularly, Defoe was memorable in a difficult role of the nice guy/ruthless business man, transforming into the arch villain.
