May 12, 2007It's everything a summer movie should be and everything a movie in general should be.

June 16, 2009THIS RATING IS NOT OF THE MOVIE SPIDER-MAN 3. THE RATING IS OF THE RIFFTRAX COMMENTARY OF SPIDER-MAN 3. I CANNOT PROPERLY RATE SPIDER-MAN 3 BECAUSE FLIXSTER DOES NOT ALLOW NEGATIVE STAR RATINGS.
I swore I would never see this; I didn't need to see it to know how godawful it is. ... ...( read more ) -
May 6, 2009"Look, I want to kill the spider, you wanna kill the spider. Together, he doesn't stand a chance. Interested?
- Yeah."
'Spider-Man 3' arrived the theatres with a lot of hype, as the viewers were preapring themselves for the symbiote suit, which would eventually give birth to Spi... ...( read more ) -
April 5, 2009Again too many characters spoil the broth and the story is waaaay too complex for a comic book adaptation. It looks cool, probably the best looking Spidey, but they try to squeeze in too much. I wanted to see more of Venom...the evil characters are always the best and more intere... ...( read more )

If most of the characters in this edition seem to be zigzagging in confusing fashion from good to bad and back again, the awesome production is forturnately in safe hands as usual with director Sam Ra... full review

Raimi at least manages to make it both huge and human. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
It's mostly enjoyable. But it's a limping effort compared with the first two. The trilogy hobbles to a finish when it should have soared. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
My guess is that when the summer blockbuster season finishes pummeling us with formula, Spider-Man 3 is going to look like one of the few that was touched by human hands. full review

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
The script is busy with so many supporting characters and plot detours that the series' charming idiosyncrasy is sometimes lost in the noise. Fortunately, it's entertaining noise. full review

Edward Havens, FilmJerk.com
It's schizophrenic pacing and apathy towards its audience's acceptance means the film never needs to be seen more than once, if that. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
The third adventure of the guy with arachnid superpowers tries gamely, is solidly entertaining and possesses dazzling special effects, but it falls short of the near-perfection of the Spidey sequel. full review
April 30, 2007
Anthony Lane, The New Yorker
Laziness mingles with overkill, violence with mawkishness: most of the characters weep at the slightest provocation, but heads are beaten, burned, and sheared off by passing subway trains. full review

David Edelstein, New York Magazine
What's missing? Momentum. A touch of meanness. A centrifugal threat like Molina's octopus man. (In terms of dramatic stature, the three villains here don't add up to one Doc Ock.) full review

March 16, 2009I know I know.
I wish spider man, was my man hahaha for reals, haha
fuck you all. -
December 16, 2008this movie had so much potential to be better.
it was just too rushed and it felt like the plot, characters were all squeezed up.
imo, it would've been better without the sandman story.
harry osbourne and venom, yeah it fits.
but overall an entertaining flick. -

June 27, 2008I hope Sam Raimi doesn't come back for "Spider-Man 4". I'm tired of his take on Spidey. Does it seem to anyone else like Raimi just wants to direct a romantic comedy that just happens to star a superhero? If "Spider-Man 3" had been as good as "Spider-Man 2", I might feel differently, but since "Spider-Man 3" was a major disappointment, I'd be happy to see a new director at the helm of this franchise. (And I wouldn't mind seeing the backs of Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst either.)
