1. "The Amazing Spider-Man" is a restart of the "Spider-Man" series of movies, returning to the original comic book setting, and has nothing to do with Tobey Maguire's "Spider-Man".
2. The "Spider-Man" series starring Tobey Maguire is not suitable for Peter Parker because of its departure from the original and the too old age of the star (there is another saying that he opted out of it). Therefore, the original plan for the sequel to the Spider-Man series was confirmed to be abandoned last year.
So we must first make it clear that this is a brand-new movie, an adaptation of a comic in an accurate sense. Questions like this can be skipped as to why "Spider-Man" was remade in a short period of time.
3. There is no need to say more about the plot of the original comics: the protagonist Peter Parker was originally an orphan, living with his uncle and aunt, and an ordinary high school student in New York with a rather introverted personality. Parker, who has been a science fan since he was a child, was bitten by one of a group of genetically modified spiders and gained superpowers. After a period of confusion and bewilderment, Parker adapted to the changes in his body, but at this time his uncle had an accident, prompting him to become a superhero and assume the responsibility of the savior... After the
movie was released, Garfield’s youth version Spider-Man has been criticized by many people, but we need to know that this is in line with the original content. In the comic setting, Spider-Man is a young ignorant teenager, a nerd image with big glasses. He was a child when he was bitten by a spider. He is lacking, immature, and even a little rock punk. Even though he became Spider-Man after being bitten by a spider, deep down he still feels like a thin 90-pound child. Stan Lee said: "Peter is an ordinary person. He has experienced the frustrations that you and I have experienced." Critics generally believe that they are also superheroes in American comics, Superman is a superior god, and Batman is a workman. The scheming middle-aged man, in contrast, only Spider-Man is an ordinary person and a civilian hero. His growth experience is familiar to people, which is the root cause of the popularity of the series.
I personally think that the male protagonist played by Garfield has a very good adolescent characteristics, full of characters and high credibility. He has been an orphan since he was a child, eager for the care of his loved ones, so he shows rebellion in his attitude towards his uncles and aunts from time to time. To the heroine played by Emma, he showed the shyness and shyness of the big boy. Curiosity and thirst for knowledge prompted him to explore the secret behind it. His own ignorance, young and frivolous have also formed the blatant behavior style when fighting criminals-250 God Tucao. How are these different from yours and my youth?
In addition, the process of the protagonist's journey as a hero in this film is also worth exploring. The direct cause was that the uncle was killed. Plainly speaking, it is revenge and hatred, but in a deeper sense, it is more to seek remedy for personal faults. If he didn't leave with anger, if he didn't stand by and watch the crimes around him, then there would be no tragedy of his loved ones. Then when he wanted to bravely fight Dr. Lizard, the heroine once persuaded him to give up because of fear of losing him, but was refused. This time, it was also because he consciously gave the doctor formula to have such a crisis, and he had to clean up his mess. When he was finally wounded in battle, it was his love for his girlfriend that strengthened his belief. As set above, although not as good as Batman's Gao Daquan who fought for the people, it is more pertinent and convincing. There is no need for large-scale words of justice, no need for the attention of thousands of people, and some are just the simple ideas of an ordinary person, an ordinary interpretation of the sense of responsibility. For Spider-Man in high school, it seems reasonable.
4. Among all the villains in the "Spider-Man" series, Professor Lizard can be said to be a completely tragic figure. The so-called tragedy here emphasizes the origin of the tragedy. Formerly known as "Connors". The professor of Spider-Man University appeared earlier in the comics, and the background of the earliest identity setting is somewhat inferior to the current 21st century. Connors was originally active in the scientific world as a biologist and medical scientist, but his originally peaceful life was put to rest due to the war. Connors joined the army to return to the battlefield, and the war caused him to lose an arm. After returning home, Connors began to be clumsy and gave up his original achievements to enter the university to teach. For a long time, Connors hated his crippled self from the bottom of his heart, but he was helpless. Finally, he got a terrible inspiration from the regeneration function of reptiles. Use the genetic biology you are good at to change your own destiny. He began to secretly research and extract the DNA of lizards. Finally, he successfully invented a drug, and the eager Professor Conners injected the drug without any experiment into his body without thinking. Although he got a new arm, he was unable to control the negative effects of the drug. Every night, his body began to mutate into a lizard and crazily destroy him. Slowly he had more and more lizard habits. Unable to restore human form. Conners is kind by nature and has a wife and children. The body's mutation made him miserable, and he began to rob the science department in order to find a way to restore his human form. However, he was repeatedly sabotaged by Spider-Man, experiment after experiment, failure after failure, and Spider-Man getting in the way, leaving Connors completely desperate to reply. He pointed everything at Spider-Man. He finally became a vicious and humanless Professor Lizard.
In summary, we can understand that Dr. Lizard's several emotional changes in the play are not unreasonable. At the beginning of humanity, nature is kind...
After solving a few misunderstandings, come back and take a look at the production level of the movie itself. After the "500 Days with Summer" was a hit in 2009, Mark Webb has been exploring new ways for the past few years. 10 years of directing the fox series "Lone Star", the film was full of emotional entanglements but was dark, and finally died unfortunately. This time, "The Amazing Spider-Man" is positioned as a young hero, giving him an opportunity and space to display his talents. The film itself has a theme of fighting for love. Whether it's interspersing the shy and natural cute and fresh love comedy of the young couple in the film, or adding parkour, skateboarding and other extreme sports elements to the action design, it greatly satisfies the perception of young movie fans. Mark Webb has been engaged in filming short films and music videos for a long time. The foundation of his early years makes him have a good skill in the control of the rhythm of the film. The plot of the whole film is very smooth, the jokes are just right, and there is no extra place for plot clues. Even the uncle of the police is in charge of order, and the main theme scene of construction workers reaching out for help makes his girlfriend cry because of its novel creativity and magnificent scene. Technically, powerful motion capture and fast editing firmly grasp the eye, and the RED Epic 3D camera reproduces the first-view lens is a pleasant surprise. It can be said that Mark Webb's transformation is quite successful. James Horner's soundtrack also helped a lot.
The heroine played by Emma is very pleasing in the film. Get rid of the usual vase image in superhero movies. With temperament, tenderness, knowledge, and courage, she only screamed twice in the film... (you can easily guess who I am mocking).
In the end, I would like to spit out inadequacy. At the end of the film, the screenwriter felt as if he had been holding back urine for more than two hours and finally went into the toilet. First, the promise of the police uncle, and then the best thing about Aunt Mei’s Peter, the best thing is integrity and kindness, and then a large number of voice messages from Uncle Ban, the content is ability, responsibility, I love you, Barabala. This deliberate arrangement is undoubtedly stiff and artificial. Nevertheless, I still like the final conversation between Garfield and the teacher.
Teacher: Don't make promises you can't keep
Peter: But those are the best kind
