Spider-Man Ratings & Reviews
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
Spider-Man isn't a daring new approach to comic adaptations, like Tim Burton's failed Batman. Rather, by sticking close to the source, it succeeds with flying colors.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Robert Philpot
The movie counts as a modest success simply because it remains largely true to its roots, and the story that Lee and Ditko develop has a human side to it that's as strong -- if not stronger -- than its superhuman side.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
Spider-Man plays so much like a comic book, you can almost hear the pages rustle.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
Spider-Man is an almost-perfect extension of the experience of reading comic-book adventures.
Associated Press
David Germain
With earnest, unpretentious delivery, Maguire is an eminently likable hero audiences will root for from his earliest moments as the class wimp.
Slate
David Edelstein
At its best, Spider-Man takes the adolescent yearning at the heart of most superhero sagas and gives it a lovely swing.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Coarse mayhem notwithstanding, Spider-Man will probably provoke a pandemic of arachnophilia.
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
The perils and advantages of being bitten by a genetically modified spider are made abundantly clear in Sam Raimi's enjoyable, if broken-backed, exercise in high-cost pulp.
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
Maguire is just right as Peter, the supporting cast is great, and the script is excellent, striking just the right note of respect and affection for the source material.
TIME Magazine
Richard Corliss
In emphasizing angst over energy, the movie is much like its hero -- not the dashing crime fighter in a red-and-black bodysuit but the introspective nerd who both endears and exasperates.
Newsweek
David Ansen
Even at its most generic, Raimi's amiable movie doesn't forget its human scale.
Variety
Todd McCarthy
A perfectly serviceable early-summer popcorn picture that will satisfy its core teen constituency and not displease general viewers looking for some disposable entertainment.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Unfortunately the film, like many of its ilk, is driven by special effects, and there's a serious disconnect between Maguire's sweet-natured dialogue and Spider-Man's pounding violence and stunning acrobatic work.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Raimi slowly builds Spider-Man to a fireball of a climax, the type of moment old B-movie serials used to deliver in spades.
Chicago Tribune
Mark Caro
With his big, round, soulful eyes, Maguire always has been able to convey a sense of wonder, and his instinct for understatement also serves him well here.
L.A. Weekly
Manohla Dargis
Introduced in 1962, the original superhero helped to initiate the age of modern comics. Raimi hasn't figured out how to reconfigure him for the blockbuster age.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Raimi gives this unapologetic fluff a mind, a heart and a keen sense of fun.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
This is perhaps the most spot-on film adaptation of a comic book superhero yet.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
One wide-eyed comic-book movie that revels in its pulp origins.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
[A]n energetic romp.
