I thought Spiderman 3 overall was a good movie experience. It was cheesy in parts (e.g., American Flag) and the coincidences were just a little too much (Hey, of all the skyscrapers in New York, the daughter of the Fire Chief is modeling on the floor that is hit with a crane, the boyfriend of said model is taking pictures, and her classmate is saving her). The movie went on for about 30 minutes too long. That said, you know you are watching something fun when you take your 11-year-old son and five friends to th move, and they are quiet the whole time (once the movie actually started). They were completely in awe of the movie and talked about it the whole way home. Myself: I liked it, but I can see why people were disappointed.
