Film Review Analysis: Spider-Man 3

The review I have read is on Spider-Man 3, probably the best film of 2007; and what with this being a superhero film, I'd say this film targets people of all ages, from 12 Years Old going up because lots of issues in the film are related to young people growing up, and in some cases (Namely that of the film's main protagonist Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) and his best friend Harry Osborn (James Franco)), the characters are struggling with their personal feeling and friendships, leading up to a confrontation about ten minutes after the start of the film between Parker (Spider-Man) and Osborn (The New Green Goblin).

I think readers should see the film after reading the review to see if they feel the same way about it as the writer of the review.

With this review, the way in which it's started is with a single poster showing Spider-Man looking into the glass of an office window at his symbiote counterpart with some text at the bottom claiming that Spidey 3 is "2007's BIGGEST MOVIE".

I believe that this is particularly eye catching because it shows the reader(s) what to expect from the film.

For this review, three paragraphs are taken up to describe the film; I think this seems suitable because it simply explains the film, what it's about and why it's targeting a certain audience.

At one point in the review, the writer describes the scene in which Peter confronts Harry about their feelings for red-headed actress Mary-Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst), eventually leading to a brutal fight between the two, and Peter hurling one of Osborn's pumpkin bombs in his face.

I think the writer wrote this scene in to give us a taster of what's happening amongst the characters in the film.

The reviewer shows us that Spider-Man 3 is very big on character development, such as the story of Peter Parker's dark side, being shown more often, along with Eddie Brock (Topher Grace) and Flint Marko (Thomas Haden Church) spiralling down dark paths of their own by becoming two of Spidey's most feared enemies: Venom (Brock) and Sandman (Marko), and how they lust for revenge on the webslinger in their own personal ways...

Memorable quotes from the film include Tobey Maguire commenting on his new Black Spider-Man costume:

"The Black Suit is sleeker and sexier, more like me in real life!"

Love interest Gwen Stacy actress Bryce Dallas Howard talking about her character:

"Gwen's a part of a love triangle between Peter and MJ, she's got an unconscious and innocent sensuality which, um...and I can't really say anything!"

Overall, I think this review for Spider-Man 3 is very positive, and has helped me greatly while thinking of my own review.
