The Amazing Spider-man 2012.

After being bitten by a genetic altered spider, Peter Parker becomes Spider-Man. He engages with Dr Curtis Connors who was his father's research partner who is working on cross species genetic who has plans of his own.

I have always found this more entertaining than the Tobey Maguire version of the web slinging hero. Andrew Garfield takes the role of Peter Parker/Spider-Man, who seems a bit more hyper and full of energy. Emma Stone plays the love interest Gwen Stacy and daughter of police chief played well by Dennis Leary. Connors is played brilliantly by Rhys Ifans. Uncle Ben and Aunt May are played by Sally Field and Martin Sheen.

The special effects are good aswell as the P.O.V shots unless you suffer from motion sickness only downside was the CGI effects of The Lizard that could have been a bit better and more realistic than a knock off from some cheap 50s B movie monster. 7-8 out of 10.
