Belive it or not, but I hadn't seen Sam Raimi's Spider Man up until now, but I finally was in the mood and sat down and watched it.
Overall I enjoyed myself, but it also plenty of cringe and dorky moments. Also, not sure if they used green-screens or CGI, but it looked a little off at times, but still pretty decent.
But man, while I usually love Willem Dafoe, and he was ok as the antagonist, the character he was playing, The Green Goblin, couldn't be a dorkier supervillain. Starting with the costume which looked absolutely ridiculous.
It was also interesting how awkward Tobey Maguire played his character when not wearing the costume. And then he was much better when actually playing Spider man.
Another that was hilarious, was JK Simmons. I had only seen moments of him in various internet memes. But he was over-the-top and funny. I guess that's how most of the characters acted, if I had to sum it up with one label. Over-the-top.
Anyway, it was still an enjoyable and fun little ride. I still considering if I want to watch the other ones of this trilogy, since I hadn't seen those either.
