Give me rent! Meme-able moments aside, Spider-Man 3 is easily the worst of the Sam Raimi-directed trilogy.

Still, that library fight betwee with Stan Lee chilling in the foreground is pretty great.

Moreover, the inclusion of Rhys Ifans' as the Lizard only served as a crushing reminder of the movie we could have gotten in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 4, which would have seen - among other things - Dylan Baker's Curt Connors transforming into the reptilian baddie. Plus, Bruce Campbell would have made a cameo as Mysterio. With all of that said, The Amazing Spider-Man's uninspired rehash of Uncle Ben's death and the infamous spider bite don't feel as fresh the second time around. He brought a warm, down-to-earth sensibility to the project, which was only enhanced by Garfield's charming performance that made Peter Parker feel like an actual high schooler (Tom Holland, of course, would do it best five years later). Hiring director Marc Webb (known at that point for indie gems like 500 Days of Summer) was certainly an interesting move on Sony's part. There's just no getting around the fact that the franchise was most likely rebooted less than a decade after the conclusion of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy because Sony wanted to prevent the screen rights from relapsing back to Marvel.

Oh, and how dare you not give us more of Paul Giamatti hamming it up as the Rhino. The inclusion of a far-reaching Oscorp conspiracy involving Peter's father (Campbell Scott) and the cojones to actually kill off Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone) in a nod to the Conway/Kane story are highlights, but not enough to save this lukewarm follow-up. Electro (Jamie Foxx) goes rogue because Spider-Man doesn't remember him after he transforms into Doctor Manhattan - er, we mean a glowing blue current - and Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan) shows up out of nowhere as the screenplay asks us to swallow the very large pill that he and Peter have been best friends since childhood. It might have worked better, had their motivations been a little better defined. Much like Spider-Man 3, the first - and only - sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man suffers from a surplus of bad guys.
