Hmmmm......
On the one hand, I like the cast, I like the old-school web-shooters, I like that they're using Gwen instead of Mary Jane and that it looks like they're incorporating bits of nerdy-science-geek Gwen from Spectacular Spider-Man, and the first-person wall-crawling sequence put a big stupid grin on my face.
On the other hand.......I'm really not digging the 'dark and angsty' atmosphere they're going for. Peter's got that Edward Cullen vacant stare, and the only lines he says sound really whiny. It's like they're trying to cross the Nolan Batman movies with Twilight, and neither of those are really appropriate for Spider-Man, who's supposed to be a smartass and a goofball who fights villains the Avengers would just laugh at.
I'm sure it's going to be a good movie. I just don't think it's going to be the movie I want, and that's really going to annoy me.
