STORYLINE

Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May, under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark, Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine - distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man - but when the Vulture emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.

MY REVIEW

Truth be told, I am not a Spiderman fan. Never have been. Likely never will be. To me, Spiderman is always going to be Adam West however, this movie did not suck. I did enjoy it even though I was not sold on the idea of making Spiderman in High School. I mean, didn't we already have that one a long time ago?!?

What I DID LIKE about this movie:

• Michael Keaton! I think he may have been my favorite part of the movie. 
• Loved the new suit
• CGI was pretty decent 

What I DID NOT LIKE about this movie:

• I think some fat writing/Acting was lacking. The conversations in the majority of the dialogue heavy scenes felt forced. I felt like there were really only two decent actors (Holland and Keaton)
• Bad jokes that fell flat.
• As much as I LOVE Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) I feel like the Spiderman movie was extremely heavy on the Stark items.
• OMG Plot holes a-plenty! 

On a more personal note..... I was packing to go on a work trip and Rocket decided he was going to try to go with me. I called Terry to help me in the kitchen and he showed up wearing a Storm Trooper Helmet! And finally, I made a cake. Turned out pretty awesome!

MY REVIEW

This was a pretty amazing movie. Due to it not being released yet and I got to see a pre-release preview, I don't want to go into too many details. 

What I DID LIKE about this movie:

• Setting- I love the setting. Berlin wall is a month from being torn down.. US, British, French and Russian spies a plenty! Excellent use of music and costuming! This was a visual masterpiece.
• Violence was necessary and perfect.

What I DID NOT LIKE about this movie:

• Not much. I think the only thing that was a little iffy was the twist, or the twist on the twist, or the twist on the twist of the twist... It's almost like they filmed 3 endings and decided to use them all!

On a more personal note..... Finished my 3-D printed Wonder Woman Tiara. Wore it to work today! Finished a new trooper helmet. Isabella and Dexter were pretty cute!
