The Amazing Spider-Man [DVD] [2012]

Fast download

The Amazing Spider-Man 2012, Blu Ray, 2 disc version. Sold & delivered by our main third party seller, on Amazon UK app. Condition as described; no damages to discs, case & sleeve, or outer sleeve. Bought at an excellent price, for the Mrs. I actually avoided this, since it's release, as I WAS keen on the Sam Raimi & Tobey Maguire trilogy. However, Andrew Garfield is utterly convincing as Peter Parker and Spider-Man, with the best Spider-Man suite and eye lenses! Emma Stone the best, and original, love interest, as Gwen Stacy. Excellent cinematography, with a natural image, upscaling on our 4K UPSCALER compact Panasonic DMP-BTP180 (See my review on amazon.de) & SONY 43" WF66 Smart TV (See my review on Amazon UK.) The fighting is well choreographed, with mainly athletic & gymnastics movements, rather than the popular, but obviously CGI, and excessively flexible body joints; with gravity defying, unsurvivable mayhem. The Lizard is a believable villain. Disappointing that Garfield only made 2; but as he was contracted for 3, he returns as Spider-Man, along with Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man, in the light hearted 2021 Tom Holland "Spider-Man: No Way Home" multiverse epic. This version highly recommended for production quality, and price. Mrs also thinks highly of this film, and has the Tom Holland Spider-Man trilogy on Blu Ray. We still have to watch Amazing Spider-Man 2.

Great Blu-ray quality with crisp visuals and solid sound — definitely worth it if you enjoy superhero movies and want a reliable physical copy.

Brilliant movie

I have loved Sam Raimi films ever since I first watched “Evil Dead”, So I was very thrilled to hear that he would direct the Spiderman film (2002), I was excited and he delivered, Spiderman 2 is actually my favorite, but Spiderman 3 was not too good, So with the collapse of Spiderman 4 and 5 during pre – production, Raimi walked away, So then Marc Webb directs the Reboot, honestly they have been a lot of Negative’s and Positives being thrown around about the reboot, but I liked it, Webb did a very good Job with this, the 3D is not the best out there, but it ain’t the worst either, story wise I felt it was well paced. The Blu-Ray package is very nice, it consists of 2 Blu Ray discs, the second Blu Ray disc is packed with features, this is what is not specified here on Amazon, the first disc of this set has both the 3D and 2D versions of the movie, they are both on the same disc, just pop it in and select the version you want. The Video is flawless, Crisp and Very detailed, The Audio is well timed and detailed too.

I love this spider man film ......….

I'm a fan of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy (Spider-Man 2 being the standout) and it did seem like a strange decision from Marvel to reboot the character before the dust had even settled on those films. However, for me, The Amazing Spider-Man really jumped out of their shadows and is a great piece of work in its own right. Peter Parker's origin and backstory have been tweaked which probably isn't everyone's cup of tea but it worked for me, bringing a bit of freshness to this oft told story. Emma Stone steps in as Gwen Stacy (no Mary-Jane this time out) and she has great chemistry with Andrew Garfield as the new fresh faced Spidey. Garfield himself is on top form and it looks like he's having a blast out there, especially in the standard - Peter playing with his new powers scenes. Marc Webb as director brings a deft touch to the comedy and the romance, possibly honed on previous effort 500 Days of Summer (quality film). He does a good job with the action set pieces and the effects hold up well. Throw in a tragic, conflicted villain (Rhys Ifans) and solid support elsewhere from the likes of Martin Sheen and Denis Leary and you've got a pretty damn fine package. It's also got my favourite Stan Lee cameo. Various seeds are set for the inevitable sequel and it's pretty welcome after this effort.

I was a fan of the 'original' films with good ol' Tobey (although not the last one, because MAN that sucked), so I was kind of apprehensive about checking this out, but since it had Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone (actors I love), I figured I'd give it a shot. This was such an awesome adaptation! Much more loyal to the comics, really captured the fun and cheeky side of Spidey, the characters (and character development) were just spot-on and everyone was fantastic in their roles. Gwen and Peter shone in this (much more chemistry than Peter and MJ in Raimi's version) and I liked that Gwen was smart, funny and actually able to help. It's good to see a strong female figure in action movies who can help save the hero from time to time. The villain in this was also much better developed and that general storyline was well-handled. I don't want it to sound like I'm hating on Raimi's version, because that wasn't without its charms and I really did enjoy that. But, IMO, this far surpasses it in every aspect.

One thing I wish about Spider-Man: that Sony would release the contract to Marvel Studios so Spidey can be in the Avengers where he belongs. But until that glorious day, Spidey will be forced to live on the silver screen all alone with a set of villains that have yet to be in the movies. Sure, I think I read that The Rhino will be in the next one, which is great since Rhino is one of the classics that, until modern CGI technology, couldn't really be done the right way. The previous three films by Sam Raimi were amazing...well, the first two were amazing, but not number three. Ick, not number three. I mean, Topher Grace as Eddie Brock? Did they even read the comic books? Come on Sam, no wonder there was a needed reboot just a few years later. And why throw in the Sandman AND Green Goblin's son back into the mix? It was too much, and therefore nothing was done to the fullest. In my opinion, they should've just stuck to the Venom suit and cast someone much more comic-book-related as Eddie Brock...someone with a more sinister voice. OK, this is just a ranting history lesson leading up to the real review of the reboot. I LOVED this film for many, many reasons. First, the casting was much more well-done. Andrew Garfield plays a much more believable Peter Parker (lankier, goofier, and much more natural on-screen as a nerd than Toby MacGuire). And they didn't include Mary Jane! They started much earlier in Spider-Man's history by giving us Emma Stone as Gwen Stacey. Much, much better in terms of true storyline adherence. In short, the acting was much, much better and tighter for another reboot, which was risky to begin with in my opinion. The best part of the film, was that they never "buffed" Andrew up when he was in the suit. The suit was loose, wrinkly, and he still looked like the little skinny guy that he truly is when Peter Parker. It was awesome that they didn't make Peter some ripped-up muscle-bound hero after the spider bite. Yes, they gave him the necessary augmentations like vision, spider sense, sticky hands and feet, dexterity, etc., but they didn't buff him. I don't know, for someone who's a Spider-Man purist like me, I thought this was a well-thought-out execution of the character. He looks feeble, even in the suit, and that really helped me root for the underdog even more. The Lizard, played by Rhys Ifans, was massive compared to our Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, which made the fights look awesome. Regarding character development, the storyline differences between Raimi's first film and this one aren't very big. Uncle Ben is still killed "accidentally" by a rogue criminal that Peter arrogantly lets go to "get even" with some minor injustice. The "with great power comes great responsibility" mantra is still intact, and it's a good lesson to learn...and painful in most instances. But Peter's scientific side is much, much more developed in this film because his webbing isn't organically engineered from his own body (as in Raimi's depiction). As in the comic books, Peter is a scientific genius, and develops his own webbing and shooters. Oscorp as a military industrial complex is also much more developed, though we never see hide nor hair of Norman or his son in this film. In summary, I think this reboot of my favorite comic book character of all time is well-done, surpassing - in my humble opinion - that of Raimi's vision. Marc Webb (really...Webb?) did a great job directing and the on-screen outcome is nothing short of brilliant. I'm very excited for the next installment.

We recently watched this movie in 3D, and the effects were incredible! They were some of the best 3D effects I've seen, adding a whole new level of excitement to the action sequences. The movie itself was also very enjoyable, with a great story and fantastic acting. If you have a 3D TV and you're a fan of superhero movies, I highly recommend checking this one out!

Ich hatte das Glück den Film bei der Deutschland Premiere sehen zu können. Da ich ein absoluter Spidey Fan bin ging ich mit sehr großer Erwartung in den Film. Die ersten Teile von Sam R. fand ich gut. Leider waren die Teile ja recht weit von den Comics entfernt. Vom neuen Film erhofte ich natürlich das er sich mehr an die Comicvorlage hält. Leider und gleich vorweg, der Film ging einen eigenen Weg. Die Comic Vorlage wurde noch weniger beachtet wie bei den Raimi Filmen. Ich mußte mich in den 2 Stunden Film im Kopf frei machen und gleichzeitig versuchen zu genießen. BITTE NICHT LESEN WENN IHR DEN FILM OHNE VORKENNTNISS SEHEN WOLLT!!! Was mich ein wenig irritiert hat war die tatsache das peter parker im film seine geheimidentität als solches preisgegeben hat. und zwar an gwen stacy . das wiederspricht allem was die comics zeigten. wer die geschichte aus den comics kennt, weiß das es peter extrem wichtig war seine geheimidentität geheim (deswegen auch eine maske) zu halten. besonders seiner familie gegenüber. denn zuviel gefahren bedrohten spiderman bzw peter parker. gwen stacy wußte bis zu ihrem tot durch den grünen kobolt nicht wer spiderman wirklich war. man muss wissen , das gwen, peter parker liebt aber spiderman hasst. das war dadurch gekommen weil sie dachte das spiderman verantwortlich war für den tot ihres vaters, george stacy . aber kurz bevor ihr vater starb zog peter die maske ab und zeigte ihm wer spiderman wirklich war. das wiederum wußte gwen nicht und sie dachte spiderman wäre verantwortlich für den tot ihres vaters. peter lebte also immer im zwiespalt zwischen seinem alter ego spiderman der von gwen gehasst wird und sich selber der gwen liebt. soweit die comic vorlage...... der rest ist geschichte bis hin zum tot von gwen usw. Soweit eben die Comic Vorlage aus den 70er. Im film aber sagt peter , gwen sehr schnell wer er ist und auch ihrem vater zeigte er wer spiderman wirklich ist. ich dachte in dem moment, oh nein was passiert hier? da hätten die filme macher ja gleich mary jane wieder nehmen können, denn die wusste ja wirklich wer spiderman war. ich denke entweder wollte marc webb seinen eigenen weg gehen bzw der typ der die story umgeschrieben hatte oder die film jungs haben sich überhaupt nicht um die comicvorlage gekümmert und einfach alles quer durcheinander gemischt. naja das werden wir wohl nie herausfinden. wie gesagt als fan der comics ein schwerer brocken.. Mal von diesem manko abgesehen und rein von der Umsetzung her aber ein super film!!! Sehr gute Spidey Action und zum Teil sehr gute Ideen wurden gezeigt. Leider hat mir der 3d Effekt nicht so gefallen. Das hätte man viel besser machen können und müssen. Den Film kann man auch ruhig in 2d ansehen. Kein vergleich zu Avatar oder Avengers. Schade. Aber ich bin sehr froh meinen Lieblingsheld in einen gut gemachten Film erleben zu können und denke das er den Leuten gefallen wird. Wie gesagt ich sah den Film sehr kritisch. Die meisten kennen ja die Comic Vorlage nicht und die können den Film wohl auch freier genießen als ich. Die Schauspieler waren sehr sehr gut. Ach ja.. noch eine Sache die mir wichtig ist. Normal hat so ein Film eine gute Filmmusik verdient, aber das war eher eine ohne Wiedererkennungswert. In Superman von früher war die Filmmusik total auf den Helden zugeschnitten und man wusste da kommt Superman. So auch bei Star Wars. Leider muß unser Spidey ganz ohne diesen ,,Wiedererkennungswert ,, auskommen. Könnte Ihn mir immer wieder ansehen. Er ist nicht langweilig und hat auch keine Längen wie die Raimi Filme.

When I initially heard that the franchise was being rebooted, I couldn't be happier. As my bookshelves will show, I am a long-standing Spidey fan, who has been collecting ASM (Amazing Spider-man) since somewhere in and around issue 350. It's not that I didn't enjoy the Tobey McGuire movies, it's just that I thought they could have been cast/written/done a whole lot better. This is just that. Andrew Garfield is phenomenal at capturing the bottled up anger, comedic defenses, and intellectual sides of a fairly complex character; Peter Parker. Emma Stone wasn't my first choice for Gwen, but the chemistry that she shares with Garfield is undeniable, and her geeky charm really help sell the dynamic between the two. Everyone else really help bring it all home, and the Blu-ray is packed with featurettes and behind the scenes that really explain the direction the creators took. Overall the film was terrific, and this package does well to honour what the team have put together. The figure that comes included in this particular package is not resin, but it is still of a higher quality than I would have expected for the price. It makes for a great showpiece for any fan, and is strongly recommended by myself!

The product is of great quality. It looks undamaged, the disc works and had a great packaging. It arrived here ealier than expected and I had no difficulties with this seller or the item's delivery. I really like this blu-ray version.
