The Amazing Spider-Man is the first movie as Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker, and is not nearly as good as the movies from the original Spider-Man trilogy are. In this movie, Peter Parker has some background information and Peter becomes Spider-Man. Peter fights with the Lizard while trying to win over the crush of his dreams, but Andrew Garfield is a horrible Spider-Man. Spider-Man is supposed to be a nerdy kid, who gets incredible powers, but in this movie Andrew Garfield is a "cool" kid who rides around a skateboard. This is not the Spider-Man that people love, or the one that is one of Stan Lee's greatest creations. This movie does not live up to expectations, the ending is not that great, and this movie is only sub-par, at best.
