Spiderman is better than 3 stars but its not a 4 star movie. It starts well enough and Peter Parkers discovery of his new found powers is well done both in the School scenes and later in the wrestling/cage fight. The fight in the school is very well done and Parker's discovery of his new much faster reactions remains perhaps the highpoint of the film. Its in this section of the film that the director Sam Raimi's touch is most evident.
However the film loses momentum and gets more and more predictable as it progresses and in the end was certainly too long. The leading actors did a fine job and the best thing in the film is Tobey Maquire, whose portrayal is spot-on. There are extras galore on disc 2 as well as commentaries on on disc 1. So it is certainly worth seeing (and at the Cinema it was very impressive) but it loses quite a lot on the small screen and I would only buy if cheap.

I love it. The story to it is good and the acting is equally good. The special effects and cinematography rock too. You want a good action film this is one of the good ones. I don't bother with the sequels though, for they are not good in my opinion.

I like it -Spider-Man (Widescreen Special Edition) the CGI is ok, but not too realistic. My older brother reminded me of it with the long string of cheese extended from his mouth to the pizza slice in his hand, like how Spider-man shot out his web to attach from building-to-building to swing along. "Swing Along with Spider-Man" would be a good song title, don't you think? It's a fun, light weight movie, but too bad his romance didn't go further. [Jesus told them (Adam & Eve) to go for it.] What's wrong with these guys? Do they think they can't have some fun to celebrate their glorious victories over evil? They are really missing the whole show boat here. Just the original film and DVD format is enough for me. Personally I like real acting with real actors and real stunts, not too much computerized action-acting.
