As expected, Spider Man 3 delivers the goods. From costumes, to music, to special effects, to acting, okay the plot too, the movie was overall GREAT. Something that’s really worthy of our well-earned bucks.

I’m not gonna tell any spoilers here, but I can surely say that Peter Parker/ Spider Man will show some tansformation (and back). And from the trailers, you probably know by now that Spider Man has a new nemesis, or two, or three, or two (whatever). Like I’ve said, no spoilers.

Acting wise, I’d say they were awesome. Tobey Maguire’s good subdued acting is a given. Topher Grace was a revelation. He has showcased a lot of attitude, perfect for his obnoxious role, a departure from his righteous role on “That 70’s Show”. This is definitely his time to shine. But my fascination at this time goes to James Franco, who is so talented to quickly (and successfully) transform from being the good Harry Osborn to a treacherous Goblin…amazing! Now that’s an actor!

Much of the kudos go out to the people behind the scenes. Yes, it took a lot of talented behind-the-scenes people to come up with a movie like this. And it was all spearheaded by no less than Mr. Sam Raimi, who directed the movie and also had the hand in the plot and screenplay (who also employed his family members in this movie, even as extras… and why not?).

The movie had over a thousand talents, on-screen and off-screen combined. And adding the compensation for all of them, plus the production cost, the movie was reported to have spent $256 million to make it perfect. No worries, Spider Man 3 broke box-office records when it earned over $148 million on the USA opening week alone, plus the estimated total of $220 million that it earned from other parts of the world. Simply put, this makes the “Spider Men” and Marvel men very rich by now.

For a real good entertainment, loosen up a bit, pardon the singing and acting of Kirsten Dunst, focus on the web ride and the story, go for Spider Man 3.
