Not just a reboot - it's a rejuvenation. From the first image of sensory awakening to the final acceptance of adult responsibility, it pulses with the warm blood of a very human hero.

The film is also faithful to the smartassery of the Spider-Man of the comics, and Garfield's spindly physicality evokes the Marvel illustrations of the 1960s.

Esta pelicula es muy especial para mi :), fue la primera que vi en el cine del personaje!, la actuacion de Andrew como spiderman es sublime la quimica que tiene que con Emma tambien se nota demasiado en la cinta. Para mi las escenas de balanceo de este Spider-Man son las mejores que vi en el cine (las vi en 3D), la banda sonora es exelente! (Tengo algunas en mi playlist), El aspecto dark que tiene la cinta me encanta!. Cuenta los origenes del personaje y como se convierte en el heroe, me encanta la escena donde crea su traje y sus lanza redes ^^. Las peleas de accion contra el lagarto estan muy bien hechas y han evengecido muy bien para los 14 años que tiene la pelicula. (La pelea final y cuando pelean en las alcantarillas). En conclusion esta es mi pelicula favorita del personaje :), le tengo mucho cariño ^^.

Mükemmel bir film. Gelmiş geçmiş en güzel 2. Filmdir benim için. Andrew Garfield Spider-Man rolune çok uymuş. Film asla sıkmıyor. İlk çıktığında izliyordum. Hala izliyorum. Peter Parker ve Gwen Stacy arasındaki ilişki çok güzel işlenmiş.

This is the second-best Spider-Man movie yet made. In the previous trilogy, only "Spider-Man 2" surpasses it.

The good news is that Garfield and Stone whip up a warm, convincing froth as two teenagers caught up in a beguiling case of puppy love. The not-so-great news is that by "reboot," the studio means taking audiences once again through every step of Peter's transformation into Spider-Man.

Graced with great performances from Garfield and Stone, The Amazing Spider-Man is a rare comic-book flick that is better at examining relationships than superheroism. If it doesn't approach the current benchmark of Avengers Assemble, it still delivers a different enough, enjoyable origin story to live comfortably alongside the Raimi era.

Austin Chronicle
In short, the character is a lot like the way Stan Lee first envisioned him, but the trilogy's screenwriter Steve Ditko would probably loathe this new, unsatisfying, and hollow-feeling entry into the new cinematic Marvel Universe.

The Amazing Spider-Man is a watchable movie, with a pretty good story, but terrible dialogues. The writing is very mixed. The themes are great, the story is intriguing enough, but the dialogues are terrible. It's enjoyable to watch the characters interact, but they are pretty one-dimensional. The directing is far from good, the cinematography is mixed. There are a few great shots, but most of them have no style, nothing in common. The editing is also mixed, because on the one hand it's hard to see what's happening in the fight scenes. On the other hand the pacing is quite good, it rarely feels flat or boring. The acting performances are just bad and that's definitely not only because of the actors. I love Andrew Garfield, but I didn't really enjoy him as Spider-Man. I liked him as Peter though. The Amazing Spider-Man can be enjoyable to watch, but I'm definitely not a fan of it.

Yeniden uyarlama yapımlarda illa bir sıkıntı çıkıyor. Orijinal seri daha iyiydi diye düşünüyorum.
