This film felt like it had three directors. One for the action, one for the incredibly cheesy 'plot' line and one for musical theatre. And no I'm not kidding. I was thoroughly entertained by the film as a whole, but it could've been done soooooooo much better. A lot of unneccessary plot reminders happened, and it was off the cheese counter. I'm confused.

Nothing but substance...less...ness. Those musical scenes with Dunst had me trembling out of boredom. I don't care if Raimi is true to venomic instincts or not, he should have at least poured some genuine fun in there. Maybe casting Campbell as a villian, not a cameo. After all it was the Raimi in Evil Trilogy that captured our hearts. Marvelic low gravity-high velocity physics are animated just fine by the way, only thrill in the movie.

Aggressively mediocre. They should have chosen just one villain to focus and develop, instead of half-assing three. While the second film got the mix of action, drama, and pathos just right, this feels shallow and manipulative. The film occasionally feels like an episode of Dawson's Creek. It's entertaining, but still a pretty big disappointment.

This mega-funded "summer flick" is a horrible load of garbage that doesn't deserve even the most laymen of audiences. Every single plague of aggrandized, mass-produced, Hollywood money machine, bullshit exists in this film to a degree surpassing toleration. As a measure of one's character, however, it is indispensable. Simply ask, "What did you think of Spider-Man 3," and you will learn whether the breath that escapes the mouth of your respondent has any value whatsoever. Utter filth.

If it wasn't for the piano bar scene I would have unabashedly enjoyed this. A villain grounded in reality does wonders for a superhero movie. Unlike, oh, I don't know, Sandman: a man made out of sand. A man that is made out of sand. How would a "spider-man" fight a man whose circumstances have led him to be materialized out of sand? I'm getting mad just thinking about this.

Theres too much going on in this, the Sandman and Harry plot alone is enough to carry this into a Spiderman 4 with Bruce Campbell Mysterio. I love the meme we got out of this of Harry looking down at Pete from the balcony - it was well worth Sam Raimi folding to moron studio people hellbent on making garbage. There is a GLUT of Uncle Ben flashback murder.

So many terrible things are packed into three hours. Awful montages, Spider-Man running around without a mask, overzealous soundtrack, too many villains, and on and on. Raimi started the franchise with a bang and kills it by stepping on its neck.

The film has too much going on, and even at over hours long, it still felt rushed. Now, I don't hold the storyline against it too much, because in the end, the film is aimed at a young audience where nuance and subtleties aren't usually the best way to get the message across. Unfortunately, it is melodramatic, and if you're over 15 or so, you'll probably only enjoy the action sequences or the over-the-top "bad" Peter Parker bits. At least there was no Spidey cod-piece.

I have very mixed feelings about this movie, but overall I found it to be a massive disappointment. The script is so disjointed. There were way too many subplots and certain things weren't set up properly. I usually love Raimi's campy ambitions, but they didn't do this film any favors. I did like all of the cast minus Topher Grace. Church was really good though. Maguire was good, but Peter Parker himself isn't very likable here. How unfortunate!

Spider-Man 3 is undoubtedly the worst of the series so far, but it's still an entertaining movie with a lot of cool action. The plot is absolutely ludicrous and there are so many "what the fuck were they thinking?" scenes in it, but either way, it's worth a watch.

They tried to do too much, with too many villains and too many subplots, and didn't totally succeed. Not all of the casting or acting works here. That said, it has the tone and feel of a filmed comic book down pat, some gorgeous special effects, some cool action scenes, and a few laughs. Also, Bryce Dallas Howard is so fucking hot in this movie. I don't know where that came from, but god holy damn.

As a comic fan it pains me to say this, but Spider-Man 3 was a jumbled mess. Too many elements were crammed into it and it ended up a laughable sludge of goofy emotion and characters that deserve better film treatment, which is probably a result of higher-ups demanding certain elements be present but not caring how. The sloppy and erratic action does not make it worth the watch either. Ugh!

I don't know at what point this movie went from being ridiculous to amazing, but it did; it was the funniest movie I'd seen in ages. People hoping for a deep intellectual profile of Pete and Venom aren't going to get it from this movie, but be prepared to cry from laughing so hard.

26 years ago Sam Raimi made the brilliant Evil Dead for $375K. Now in 2007 he makes the god-awful Spider Man 3 for $260M. This is the worst installment yet in the Spider Man series. It's basically a really stupid melodrama with expensive cgi-aided action scenes crammed in wherever possible.

This is a pretty good superhero movie. It's not as well made as the first two but it still has interesting characters, cool visual effects and a relatively meaningful, if simplistic, underlying message. Really, the worst parts were the corny dialogue and misplayed dramatic moments, and they weren't really any worse than your average action movie.

This is quite possible one of the worst movies I have ever seen, and I am generally pretty nice when rating movies. I am rating this movie as a 0 because it actually made me uncomfortable to watch it. VERY few movies have ever made me feel that way. Terrible cg and the writting was garbage. Sorry to any die hard fans that liked it but someone would have to pay me to watch this movie again.

It's very campy, and the studio-altered story ("HAY GUYZ, ERRBUDY LOVES VENOM") clutters up an already convoluted script. But still, in spite of all its flaws (and sometimes even because of them), the film is quite charming and fun. This movie wouldn't have been received with half as much vitriol were #2 not such an outstanding film. It falls way short of that mark, but is still a (marginally) better film than the original. Over the top, sure, but very funny. Like Harry's pie, it's "so good."

A superhero flick for the ADD generation. Amidst a barrage of randomly spliced scenes that never seem to stretch that far beyond the Raimi-inflicted two-minute event horizon, we find quick bursts of CG-driven action sandwiched betwixt blunt splinterings of poorly-delivered one-liners and close-ups of Kirsten Dunst's pouty face bedraped by that rosy-red colonial quilt that scientists claim is her mysteriously never-dry hair.

Y'know, I love Spider-Man. I grew up on the comic books and still read the old ones in the Marvel Essentials format. I could summarize like a billion Spider-Man stories, so long as they happened before 1997. Peter Parker is my homeboy; he's the bestest. BUT FOUR FUCKING HOURS OF SPIDER-MAN IS CRUEL. Of course this came out in the Bush II years -- why else would Americans so readily accept this torture?

Although Raimi leans too far into cartoonishness in the club scene, the other campy moments had me LOL. & yes, there's also 1 too many villains but I thought this was easily the best of Raimi's Spidey movies. There's alot of story & new characters to get through which keeps things unpredictable in terms of how all the elements will mix together. The writers also generally insert these elements in organically (not Venom's weakness) & make sure the motivations for character changes make sense.

Despite all its numerous flaws, this movie still kicks major ass. It is the perfect summer movie. It suffers from the same problems as X3, too much happening in too short of time, but it doesn't suffer as bad as X3. There was some stupid shit, but there was also really awesome shit. Basically every time Topher Grace is on screen, it is fantastic (minus the big defeat), and James Franco has moments of brilliance (personally the pie scene is probably my favorite moment in the whole trilogy).

If it weren't for the predecessors, this movie wouldn't have been so bad. Everything felt forced, jumbled, and campy. Nothing like the first two.

About half way in I thought to myself, they have to be taking the piss. This is like a Bollywood version, random and confusing scenes, terrible corny dialogue ("you're my best friend"), a multitude of shallow unresolved storylines. Dunst and Maguire are terrible. The only coherent action scene is a boxing match between Harry and Peter, and half the film looks like a cheap videogame.

I couldn't believe how good this film turned out to be. It hit a point in the middle where I thought it was so ridiculous it was bad but then it went from so bad it's great, like only Sam Raimi can do. I know I'm the minority here but I absolutely loved it. The sheer ridiculousness of Parker's emo rage had me in tears (of laughter). Certainly there were some terribly corny bits but I can look past them.

The most disappointing film of 2007, the first two installments of the franchise were great, and it looked like this would have been the best. But something went terribly wrong, perhaps it was fan-pressure for Raimi to include Venom, as it's apparent his inclusion as well as the symbiote storyline was shoehorned into there. It's not a terrible film, just not a great one, and I'm sure very few people ended up being generally pleased with it.

I actually liked the first hour of this movie. It posed some interesting questions & character points. But then... I don't know what happened. I felt like all the editing was done for the first half, & then one day was given to the rest of the movie. I thought there was a lack of consistency with the drama/comedy aspects, as well as the effects (some great, some not so much). The story fizzled out & the end was fairly trite but it didn't have to be. Unfortunate, 'cause it could have been better

In a vain attempt to please all the people begging for Venom they throw him in among two other "villains" and further clutter the already incongruous mess that was this script. No one was done well, acting-wise or story-wise. It almost feels like they were forced by some executive to put Venom in the movie so everyone involved in the making of the movie said, "Fuck it. If the only thing that will sell tickets is the inclusion of Venom we might as well not try."

Frankly, this was not nearly as bad as everyone said. It's kind of annoying the way the story jumps around and the CGI is somehow worse than it was in the previous film but there's a good story here and it's full of people being dicks in ways that make sense, people giving into temptations to be at their worst and that's meaningful. It chews subtly on big issues with the super-things as metaphor conceit of the superhero genre. Give it a chance.

Initially I would have rated this lower, but having watched all 3 back-to-back it sits quite well as the final part of a trilogy. Yes it has too many baddies, especially the Sandman who takes a leave of absence for the middle part of the movie, but it tries hard to tie together all the strands from the previous two. Should really be called Peter Parker: The Movie; Spider-Man only turns up en force during the last 20 minutes.

Many thought this was disappointing - yes it isn't as good as the first two and yes there are a lot of plot holes, including the meagre origin stories of Sandman and Venom, but I enjoyed watching it. It's not unreasonable to make fun of some of the movie's aspects but I thought that the writers handled the multiple subplots quite well from a certain point on. The action is vivid, with Sandman especially stirring things up quite a tad, culminating with the pretty good final fight. Far from awful.

Yes, there were too many villians. Yes, much of it was cheesy. But I still liked it. I got a kick out of Parker under the influence of the black costume (a successful diversion from the comics).

Perhaps the most disappointing conclusion imaginable to Sam Raimi's thus far superb "Spider-Man" trilogy, "Spider-Man 3" is a tired, self-indulgent, overstuffed, and often incoherent mess of a film, a film that takes a wonderful cast of brilliant characters and strips them of everything that made them unique, likable, or relatable, undoing the stellar development and thematic mirroring of what came before. Too many villains, too many unresolved threads and ideas, and too little heart.

Watching this trilogy front to back, I don't think this is as bad as it's received. Much like Amazing Spider Man 2, this film is bloated with enemies and subplots and you can tell the focus just wasn't there. Unlike ASM2, the villains are portrayed very well, including Venom. I felt like Topher Grace captured his hotshot, egotistical, annoying character of Eddie. The uncle Ben and Sandman arch closes Pretty well, and so does Harry's. It has issues, but it's passable.

Actions scenes are plentiful and easily match or surpass those of any recent blockbuster and there are hardly any scenes in any recent action-film that can top the excitement of Spider-Man coming to the rescue. But of course the action is not what's great about Spider-Man - it never has been. It's the characters and their relationships that make you care about the heros and the villains and their battles. Not as good as Part 1 and 2, maybe - but a worthy third part of the trilogy.

Upon a re-watch, I've determined this is the weakest of the three. Not by much, but enough to matter. My biggest problem is they changed who killed Uncle Ben. This is something I try to pretend didn't actually happen in the film. And the butler knew Osborn killed himself. And Venom was crucified (probably on purpose by Raimi). The rest of it, bad Parker, dancing, amazing action sequences, I love. And I love Spider-Man in general, which is why it hurts that Raimi's hurting his own streak.

It has faults -- bright, comic-booky faults that I am entirely willing to forgive. The first movie was jammed with action and took little time to slow down, and the second had a deeper, more dramatic side but sometimes started to drag. This compromise between the two -- with the drama handled more deftly and the action more thrilling -- is the best of the bunch. And that's what's really amazing.

The Venom story shouldn't have been in this film, because it made for underdevelopment of the Sandman story, and that dance sequence? Man alive. Too many flaws dot this movie.

I love the original comics, dislike the first two films and kinda like the second part of the third one. There is something about nazi - playboish Peter Parker that is close to me.
