Tobey Maguire starer Spiderman-3 is out and turning out to be successful. The story itself deals more about Peter, Spiderman and his dark side Symbiot Spidey and how Peter strikes a balance between the three lives before he comes to now that the Symbiot does more harm than good. Symbiot, as in the movie is shown to be of alien origin to have come from outer space accompanied by a meteor that crashes on earth. It finds its host, Peter, and smoothly bonds with him. Symbiot is a living creature and has the ability to think for itself. Peter finds Symbiot helpful at first as it makes his costume cooler, him stronger and invulnerable! But slowly he realises that Symbiot is taking over him and he is turning towards his darker self like in Prince of Persia - the Two Thrones.
He tries to break free from his alien bond. He also realises that sonic vibrations irritates the Symbiot. It is necessary for him as the Symbiots mind and thinking power is stronger and could remove the good Peter character for ever.
The story itself is not about Spidey fighting Sandman, Goblin 2 or Venom (Venom? I will tell you what that is!). It is about Peter’s revenge on the man who kills his uncle in Spiderman 1. (When did he become Sandman?). That person, (Flinto Marko) gets into a particle accelerator and changs into Sandman, recking havoc. Meanwhile there is Harry, Peter’s friend who seeks revenge. He believes that Peter killed his dad. (Goblin had killed himself in the first movie). Harry ropes in Goblin’s mask to take revenge.
With all this trouble, Peter has to handle the Symbiot. Eddie Brock is an extremely important character, without whom the plot would not have become so interesting, both in the movie as well as the cartoon. (The story is entirely different in the cartoon, which is even more thrilling with Carnage to help Venom). Eddie’s life is ruined by Peter. Eddie does not know that Peter is Spidey, but is constantly in trouble due to both. He loses his job, reputation everything. He wants to get Peter killed.
When Peter rips off Symbiot from himself, Eddie happens to be there. He realises Peter dual life. But fate be, Symbiot takes refuge in Eddie. Eddie loves his new friend. Symbiot obtains the traits of Spidey powers which it had obtained during his partnership with Peter. Eddie and Symbiot, together name themselves Venom and addresses as ‘we’ and not ‘I’. Equal importance right! Venom causes more trouble to Peter because Venom offs Spidey’s Spidey sense and is even stronger.
With three villans to fight Spidey has enough work to do! What happens, who helps Spidey out, who survives the fierce battle that follows, makes up the thrill of the story. With two love interests (Two? Mary Jane’s one, who is the other? Well, find out!) This is one movie we will enjoy this summer. So pack up, and let’s turn the world upside down!
