The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)
The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) reboots the origin of Peter Parker: a bright but lonely high schooler raised by Aunt May and Uncle Ben who discovers a hidden briefcase tied to his parents’ disappearance. After being bitten by a genetically altered spider, Peter awakens extraordinary agility, strength and spider-sense. As he learns to wield these powers, he’s drawn into Oscorp’s dark experiments and into a fraught bond with Gwen Stacy, his first love. When Dr. Curt Connors — once his father’s scientific partner — transforms into the monstrous Lizard, Peter must choose between vengeance and responsibility. If you watch the film you’ll get a blend of superhero spectacle and intimate coming-of-age drama: thrilling web-slinging and parkour-style action across New York, a science-tinged mystery that unravels Peter’s past, and emotional beats grounded in family, loss and first love. Expect tense, visually dynamic fights, a sympathetic but dangerous villain, and a hero’s moral journey that asks what it really means to use power for good.
