About Spider-Man 3

The seemingly invincible Spider-Man goes up against an all-new crop of villains—including the shape-shifting Sandman. While Spider-Man’s superpowers are altered by an alien organism, his alter ego, Peter Parker, deals with nemesis Eddie Brock and also gets caught up in a love triangle.

Our take on Spider-Man 3

Sam Raimi's 2007 blockbuster crams a lot into Spider-Man's third outing, and that overload is exactly its personality. An alien organism darkens Peter Parker's powers while he juggles a love triangle and his rivalry with Eddie Brock, plus the shape-shifting Sandman. It's a busier, moodier film than its predecessors, swinging between big-scale action set pieces and soapy melodrama. Fans who loved Raimi's earlier chapters will find the same earnest heart, though newcomers may feel the plot straining under its ambitions. Watch it for spectacle, a conflicted hero wrestling with his darker side, and a comic-book universe unafraid to be sincere.
