Spider-Man (2002)

Spider-Man

We get to experience the creation of Spider-Man, according to Sam Raimi, quite in the mold of Stan Lee. A lot of it deals with Peter Parker's inner struggle, but there's still room for MJ and Green Goblin.

It can't compete with Nolan's vision for Batman, but it's still quite entertaining and atmospheric. Some of the shots of Spidey over New York are quite remarkable, there's a legendary rain scene and the combination of action and drama are dealt with quite well.
