"The Amazing Spider-Man" (July 3)
Stars: Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans Director: Marc Webb ("(500) Days of Summer")
The last time we saw Spidey on the big screen was in Sam Raimi's maligned 2007 threequel "Spider-Man 3." Just five years later we'll get a fresh spin with this reboot reportedly focused on Peter Parker (Garfield) back in high school, romancing Gwen Stacy (Stone) and battling the Lizard (Ifans). While Webb promises a more visceral (and 3D) vision of Spidey's high-flying adventures, the question remains: Do we really need another round with the webslinger this soon?
