It has superb acting, thrilling action scenes (especially the climax), an amazing score, and being faithful to the comics but at the same time taking liberties to make it more interesting. Overall, 'The Amazing Spider-Man' is a fresh new start on the franchise. I think an extended cut of the movie would be necessary when it's released on DVD, but that's just me. If I have to name some complaints, it would have to be that some parts were rushed (although it's a minor nitpick) as well as a couple of parts not evaluated much.

But, who knows? James Horner's score may grow on me over time. The musical score by James Horner is also great, although I prefer Danny Elfman's score in the original trilogy because they felt more memorable and left a lasting impression. The visual effects and the action scenes are good as usual, but nothing new. All the characters are portrayed very well and are believable.

Rhys Ifans is great as Doctor Connors (a.k.a. Gwen is a much stronger character and the chemistry between her and Garfield as Peter Parker is believable. Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy is even better than Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane Watson. I can really relate to him like I always do with other incarnations of the web slinger. Andrew Garfield is a great successor to Tobey Maguire. I don't want to compare this movie to the original trilogy, but I think it's necessary to see where this movie improved from the originals. My expectations were neutral as time went by and when I walked out the theater, my expectations were blown away. When I heard that the series was being rebooted, I wasn't happy to hear about it.

I enjoyed Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy (yes, even Spider-Man 3). I've read the comics (mostly the Ultimate comics, but some of the 60's comics as well), played some of the video games, and watched the cartoons (The 19 series being some of my favorite animated shows of all time). Spider-Man is my favorite super-hero of all time.
