I’ve been ducking The Amazing Spider-Man for four days now, and now it’s Sunday and time to suck it in and buy a ticket. I so don’t want to do this. I’m so against paying to see a reboot of a spent franchise. That’s the “wrong attitude”, of course. A critic friend told me a while back that director Marc Webb (500 Days of Summer) has tapped into something here. I doubt that, given what some of the Rotten Tomatoes naysayers have written. Either way I’m stuck — I can’t not go.
