Starting from the very beginning of the strange story of Peter Parker, we learn how a clumsy and shy high-school student accidentally acquires the ability to climb and sense danger like a spider - and witness his early awkward attempts to put his new abilities to use fighting crime (and to impress a girl). This is a superhero drama that concentrates on the confusion and burdens that come with strange powers – although there are plenty of spectacular fight scenes and two great performances from stars Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst too.

Probably everyone’s dream (c’mon you know it’s true), Spiderman tells the story of a young man - Peter Parker - who crosses paths with a special spider who bites him and gives him spider-like grip, web shooting abilities, and even a new physique and out look on life.

But alas, misery always seems to seek fortune. Misery being the Green Goblin, who is the basic clich?ɬ® villain of the story. The same old stronger than spider-man, more evil look and they even kept the same sadistic tendancy every villain has. As these two battle it out, we can only hope that no-one else gets hurt (well I was hoping that! :-) ).

There are hilarious times, and there are sad moments, but whatever moments you enjoy, you wouldn’t want to miss one of the greatest super-hero movies of all time.

Fascinating facts

Zach Hudson, stunt double for Tobey McGuire, fractured his leg during a stunt when he hit a brick wall a little too hard.

In readiness to play Spider-Man, Tobey Maguire spent the five months before filming on a high protein diet and strict exercise regime, including weight training and martial arts.
