Late to the game with this one, and hoping to check out the new one tomorrow evening. I was pretty damn impressed here. I like the redo on the origin story. I never truly loved Tobey Maguire in the part, and I love what they do with Andrew Garfield here - he's charismatic and nerdy in an honest way. His chemistry with Emma Stone is pretty goddamn great as well - their first kiss scene is the kind that could go down in the history of cinema as part of the great first kisses. The Lizard isn't a great villain, but I like the idea of using a small villain to help build set up the world for us to play in, and set the stage for things to come. Over-all a smart fun action flick - looking forward to seeing how the world builds into the second one.
