The Amazing Spiderman: authentically done

So, I'm not one for comics, but when the reboot for Spiderman was announced and the love interest was not Ms Mary Jane Watson, I had to do my research.  What could be so different to require a new female lead?!  Apparently, Toby McGuire's version was all sorts of historically incorrect.  Garfield was a far more awkward Peter Parker than I was expecting, but the story itself was more authentic and followed the comic closer.  While I am still far more excited for the third installation of the Batman/Nolan series, I was not terribly disappointed in this movie.  Only slightly... well I was severely disappointed in the 3D effects and the gratuitous flying scenes.
Verdict: See it in 2D and at 4 pm on a Tuesday (Discount)
