Customer Ratings & Reviews

Andrew Garfield's version plays to the tech-gen as a thoughtful outsider searching for answers. Emma Stone's Gwen seems too mature. Rhys Ifans (Danny Deckchair) teeters between good acting and comic-charactering. The CGI is top notch. The story is re-too-old. Sally Field and Martin Sheen nail it; creating a mixed bag yet it's all good fun with great action. Even Denis Leary adds depth under cop stereo types. Don't ponder the mismatched mass physics of the large lizard tussles.

Great product. Just as advertised. All discs were perfect and packaging was great.

Film is fine - the issue I have is that this DOES NOT come with a digital copy, even though it’s advertised as having one. As you can see, the blu ray cover is missing “ultraviolet,” which is clearly shown in the advertised product.

the steelbook is beautiful! and its exclusive, only available at bestbuy. it contains the 3d bluray, bluray, bluray special features and a single dvd. it also comes with ultra violet and the spiderman peanut butter cookie recipe. the special features are good. just wish there was more to them. feels a lil lackluster, not even the trailer for the movie is on this set oddly. there are deleted/alternate/extended scenes, short featurettes of behind the scenes, and pre/post production, as well as art illustrations of the movie. its definitely a great purchase for the steelbook alone. get it before they sell out!

A very enjoyable Spider-Man movie. It comes in a surprisingly stronger/harder than typical case that is pretty nice. Note that the case says it comes with a UV digital copy as well. Not quite sure how to redeem it.

Spectacular Movie, non-stop action from beginning to end. Recommend this movie to all ages.

Okay movie. 3d was cool. I wasn't really expecting much from it, but it was one of the better 3d movies I watched.

After watching the first five minutes of The Amazing Spiderman, I knew I was gonna like it; after the first hour (which includes a lot of exposition without being tedious) I actually preferred this one to the Raimi versions mainly cuz I think it possesses an intensity and believability that the previous films lacked. Marvel seems to be producing more mature, rebooted versions of all their super-hero series and I actually prefer this variation on the Spider Man story as well, especially the disappearance of the pointless Mary Jane obsession (which always made me respect Spidey a little less). I suspect that a more scientifically savvy audience appreciates an ever evolving origins story and I also enjoyed the initial dealing-with-new-superpowers interlude which was very amusing and again just seemed a much more realistic reaction from Peter Parker to his new abilities. Exceptional performances for Peter and Gwen are what truly make this production stand out from every other action-packed big-budget flick out there, not to mention a truly scary and menacing super-villain causing some sequences to play a little like a horror film. The tragic loss of his uncle is intensely emotional making the motivation for becoming a vigilante seem more credible, while the use of fantasy tech to supplement his powers added to this as well. love Martin Sheen as uncle Ben, never been much of a Sally Fields fan but apparently the producers were looking for star power to offset the use of mostly unknowns in the starring roles (which I think was a stroke of brilliance by the way). The FX action sequences are seamless, gorgeous, captivating and again convincing (hitting on this alot I know but I think it's an essential factor). It's the details that make the difference, like while on the job at dizzying heights getting a call on his cell from aunt May reminding him to pick up eggs on his way home. The wise-cracking Spidey is not only back but actually funny with flawless comedic timing throughout and the gratuitous Stan Lee cameo was priceless. This is a new Spider-man, a better one, one whom you will be emotionally invested in by the dramatic ending which brilliantly wraps up an all-around excellent, excellent film! :)

Not as good as the Sam Raimi Spider-man films, but still pretty cool.

Excellent. Marvel films are always #1 no matter what

Very nice quality. Having it in 3D is a game changer.

Love it now i got the complete colection and is wonderfull in 4K

It's difficult to "reboot" a successful franchise. The Sam Rami series had it's faults and positives. One great choice the new franchise makes is in Andrew Garfield. I believed he was the quippy borderline jerk when he was Spiderman. I absolutely believed he was the shy/awkward geek when Parker. Emma Stone is a fantastic love interest. Replacing a great Aunt May and Uncle Ben was also no easy task, but one that was very well chosen. The film also made me want to know a lot more about Parker's parents (something the other franchise didn't), which I guess we may get in the sequel. As far as story . . . well it's an origin movie so we get another retelling of how Parker gets to be Spiderman. This one was pretty good, my only issue is he can't possibly be the only person to ever get bitten by these genetically altered spiders. They're in a giant facility where apparently people can just waltz in. And if he isn't the first, why did he survive? Very little explanation, but if it gets us to him MAKING HIS OWN WEBSHOOTERS and swinging from building to building I'm in. Although the villain is very well chosen both story and acting wise, it gets tiring to see another bad guy with dual personalities (I know it's a reboot, but didn't we just deal with that the entire last franchise with Goblin?). All in all it's definitely a set up movie for the sequel. It's fun, funny, and has 100% less whine (looking at you Tobey Maguire). Plus how can you go wrong with Denis Leary as the police captain/father you would never want to meet?

ASM2 was not that good. This one on the other hand is the best out there!!!

Bestbuy.com makes it super easy to add good priced movies to your collection or upgrade classics from DVD to Bluray.

So, I had already seen this movie in theaters and had never bothered to buy it on DVD or BluRay, but when I noticed Best Buy had a bonus "movie money" offer for a ticket to see the new movie, I figured it would be a good refresher to re-watch it. I liked this re-boot of the Spider-Man franchise. While I was a bigger fan of the Sam Raimi films (except for that gawd awful 3rd film), I still like what they are doing with the characters. There are things from both series that I like and hate. For this film, I prefer the way that they are building Peter Parker's world, touching down on the Gwen Stacey/Capt. Stacey story arc that was sorely missed from the original trilogy. The actors all do commendable jobs here. But I am a little put off by Peter's constant brooding in this film. Yes, he should have conflict, but he's a little too "angry at the world" in these films. Also, I used my "movie cash" and saw the new film in theaters. It's not as bad as many have made it out to be, but it still could have used some fixing. I'm thankful that getting a free pass to see it softened that blow. And, since I have been a Spider-fan for years, I will no doubt see the third movie when it comes out. With any luck, it will be with a bonus ticket with the purchase of the second film on BluRay. :)

I came away from the Amazing Spider-man much more positively than I had anticipated. I'm not a big fan of the 'Ultimate Spider-man' storyline which much of this film draws from, and the less said about the 'new suit design' the better. That being said, Andrew Garfield did a more than decent job filling the webbed tights and Emma Stone did a wonderful job in the boots of Gwen Stacy. The on-screen chemistry between the two leads is probably one of the best things about this particular film. I don't want to post an entire treatise, so I'll briefly sum up the things that I think are my biggest peeves about this particular take on Spider-man. - Dr. Connors/Lizard is written terribly. The potential for character-driven drama with this villain in particular makes this even more frustrating for me. When a character suddenly pulls an about face and becomes a super-villain for no discernible reason you've got a poorly written character. - Uncle Ben's death in this movie is feels rushed and fairly unimportant. Sorry Martin Sheen, I liked your performance just fine. - While watching the movie I had a running total of how many New Yorkers knew Spider-man's 'secret' identity constantly updating in my head. I stopped keeping track at about 65...

I went into this movie not thinking much of it - I'm a huge fan of the original Raimi trilogy (despite Spider-Man 3 having massive problems...), and this movie was pretty much Sony's attempt to keep the movie license. It's a good reboot, but I don't think showing the origin story yet again was necessary. The Raimi films are still fresh in peoples' minds, and even if you have new viewers who haven't seen them, you don't need to spend 40 minutes for the origin yet again. The good thing is that Andrew Garfield makes a great Peter Parker and Spider-Man, who is far more witty and humorous than Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man. The visuals are great, but the story appears to be cut and edited a bit from what you were expecting from the trailer - in fact, there are clips in the trailer that never appear in the movie that talk about "secrets" surrounding Peter's parents that are never elaborated on. The best thing I can say about this is that without it we wouldn't be getting the sequel, which judging by the trailers will be quite (pardon the pun) amazing - and it'll also focus on the "secrets" that were left out of the first film. It's a solid superhero movie and a good reboot.

I like this movie. I saw it in the theater & wanted to add it to my collection.

Loved this movie loved it even more in 3D wish they still made these movies with these actors
