Spidey spins another web

Spiderman 3... cringe, cringe, cringe. As is always the case, "the effects are brilliant", and indeed they are - in fact, I got dizzy at some points, and didn't have a clue where I was. But the story? Contrived. The acting? Corny. And the whole feel? Cringey. But I'm guessing they knew this all along, and so played into it, and I guess for many people that's the fun. As the stars and stripes unfold behind Spidey when he takes on his final challenge, you expect everyone to stand up and take the oath of allegiance to all things American and all things Marvel-lous. Oh dear!
