5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for Spider-man fans!, May 14, 2006

By	Daniel V. - See all my reviews

These two movies are the newer versions of the spiderman movies and are excellent. The storyline is good and the special effects will just blow you away. I will explain a little about the two movies.

Spider-man:
This is the first movie where you can see how peter parker turned into this "human spider". The story is well-thought-out with a great plot. This movie is loaded with action and will keep you entertained throughout the whole movie without one boring minute. The ending is great and Peter will definitely be shocked when he finds out who the villian is. But will he defeat his villian? This movie leads you into the next movie. Definitely a classic!

Spider-man 2:
As for this movie it's just as good as the first, if not better. This one has more action and really pulls you in fast, even if you haven't seen the first movie. It also has some funny (actually silly) jokes that will make you laugh. But it can be frightening at times, especially for kids. The ending is very, very good and reveals a huge secret to.....well, can't tell you which characters, you'll have to watch it first.

Now, the only reason I didn't write much about what happens throughout the movie, is because I didn't want to spoil anything. These movies are full of surprises that can't be spoiled and will make you wanna watch them again and again.

Overall, Spider-man and Spider-man 2 are pure classics and everybody must own these superhero movies. Trust me, you won't regret it.

Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Legend Comes to Life in two Masterpieces, September 14, 2006

40 years after his debut in Amazing Fantasy # 15 Spider-Man became the blockbuster movie followed a sequel starring Tobey Maguire as the teenage Daily Bugle photographer Peter Parker & the wall crawling, web slingling superhero Spider-Man as he battles Green Goblin & protects his love Mary Jane Watson, In Spider-Man 2 he battles personal problems with M.J. & with Harry who continues his veageance on Spider-Man for his father's death & battles the maniac Dr. Octopus. Two of the best superhero movies of all time, amazing, incredible, Spider-Man is one of the coolest crime fighters. Own the 2 Spidey movies & see the third installment as Spuder-Man battles the new Green Goblin, the Sandman & Venom. "Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man"
