The visual enjoyment brought by the third "Spider-Man" should have reached a greater degree of excitement. After all, with the success of the first two films, the cost input has also been increased. However, the success of movies is sometimes not directly proportional to investment, as the Waterloo history of many high-cost movies has proved this. The success of the first "Spider-Man" was due to the much-anticipated mentality of comics fans and the impact of complete freshness. The pressure on the sequel is sometimes greater than that of the first one. The first one is built from nothing, while the sequel has the first successful template as a reference. It is even more difficult to find a breakthrough. And Sam Remy's second "Spider-Man" completely surpassed the first one and became a winner at the box office and word of mouth. What is the mystery behind the success of "Spider-Man".
The additional cost of the film brings about excellence in special effects. Although it is undeniable that the gorgeous visual enjoyment has contributed to the success of the film, in fact special effects can only be the icing on the cake, not the key to the success of the film. Samiremi’s key to making "Spider-Man" win the box office and word-of-mouth is the characterization of Peter Parker and the distinctive theme of each film, which vividly presents the growth of an affinity-filled civilian hero on the screen. The whole three "Spider-Man" series has created the growing troubles of a boy next door after accidentally possessing superpowers. He is always encountering problems and confusions, sometimes trying to avoid responsibility, and sometimes being stunned by honor. I have lost my mind and grow a little bit in the loss and pain. Unlike other anime hero movies, the "Spider-Man" series has not changed the director, and it is rare to maintain the consistency of the front and back, and the use of Tobey Maguire to play Spider-Man is indeed very successful. Toby Maguire is short and not handsome enough, and is very suitable for a boy next door like Peter Parker. His performance also shows the protagonist's honest and cute side to the fullest, and can often bring unexpected humorous effects in the film.
There are nine out of ten frustrations in life. Although the superhero in the latest "Spider-Man" enjoys a lot of glory at the beginning of the film, he falls into a break with his friends, an emotional crisis with his girlfriend, and faces career difficulties. Challenges from opponents and powerful enemies. The plot development of the whole film is still smooth. Although there are many characters on the scene, the director still handles the character structure in an orderly manner, and the whole story is considered satisfactory. And a big investment must have a big output, and the rewards on the screen are endless visual feasts. The whole movie feels not bad after watching, but it lacks the expected surprise, which was once tasted in the first two movies. Surprise. It even started to make people worry that the "Spider-Man" series will repeat the same track as the "Batman" series. In fact, some similar symptoms have begun to appear in the latest "Spider-Man". The enemy of Spider-Man in the film It is no longer a single one, but three, the second generation of Sandman, Venom, and Green Devil. To a certain extent, director Sam Remy is suspected of relying on more people to join in the show.
How to make the new episode of "Spider-Man" break through the bottleneck and rise to the next level is Samremy's goal, but judging from the current status of the film, it seems that he still has no good solutions. We can learn from the past. At the beginning, "Batman" had just joined Robin as Batman's helper because of Jiang Lang, and set up a pair of enemies for Batman. As a result, many people did not solve the problem and made the film fall into a quagmire. Although the story of "Spiderman" has not been reduced to the level of mental retardation of "Batman and Robin", it is obvious that the increase in characters has led to the scattered clues and the weakness of certain plots, which is the same as the previous one around Spiderman. The main line is different. In this film, both the Sand Man and the Green Devil II have developed a lot around the theme of forgiveness, which caused loopholes in many places. For example, the Sand Man suddenly repented at the end, and the Green Demon II. Suddenly turning the enemy into a friend, they are all designed to be quite far-fetched, lacking the necessary auxiliary pads, just like talking too much in a limited space, it is inevitable to ignore one and the other, so that the main line of Spider-Man has been weakened a lot.
It is undeniable that the "Spider-Man" series is considered to be the leader in the trend of comic adaptation movies in recent decades, and all of this is based on the successful shaping of the character of Spider-Man. He is regarded as an ordinary person under a dual identity, responsible and personal. The conflicts and conflicts of desire and inner anxiety give a true portrayal. It is also the most civilian hero image, with an affinity close to the audience. Tobey Maguire is still doing quite well, even when Spider-Man is controlled by the dark in the film, he humorously shows the evil side of Spider-Man, and shows off a hot dance by the way. However, while attaching importance to Spider-Man, you must not ignore his enemies. In the first two episodes, whether it is the Green Devil or Doctor Octopus, the film has given enough space to shape its inner transformation, especially Dr. Octopus is the most successful in shaping it as Spider-Man. The real rival. However, due to the excessive number of enemies this time, the negative characters have been weakened a lot. Neither Sandman nor Venom has the same contradictions that make people come to a deep impression. The film appears cursive in terms of the character’s psychological link. pass.
The film is of course worth watching. Although this time there are many misfortunes, and the story is not as beautiful as the previous two episodes, it is also better than many junk blockbusters. For director Sam Remi, the difficulty lies in the fact that the first two films have overwhelmed one wave, how can the latter wave exceed the height reached by the previous wave. As far as the audience is concerned, the former will always be the reference for the latter, and the "Spider-Man" series will face higher and higher hurdles as it goes down. I only hope that this work is a stop for Sam Remy, and not the beginning of a decline in the "Spider-Man" series.
