The Spiders' Man

Yes. I wanted, I hoped to give this film more than 6 but I cannot. Sincerely I can't. I was hoping from a better work from this director I like but this film had a great potential that the director, somehow, did not take advantage of. The acting is really good but there are some problems in the story. It feels like they run out of money and they cut it short, without exploring further, without trying to find a better ending. it's still enjoyable somehow but I was hoping for something better, for a deeper exploration of the characters. The actor who played Mike, the trouble minded guy, gave a great and deep performance and make me believe in his character. The others not so much.

A good film hat deserves a wider audience. I watched it for free on TubiTv, I really enjoyed it. The ads running every 15/20 min are spoiling the flow of your watching experience, but it's the price you pay for not paying watching it. Back to the film, it's a Philippine-Italian production (but little has been filmed in Italy), rather low budget, but that has a pretty good story to tell. Funny at times, sarcastic sometimes it shows how a bunch of good actors in a few location can make a good film if directed by a good filmmaker.

Light but deep, funny but serious. I really enjoyed watching this. Good start with characters description scenes, it progresses unexpectedly and wraps up nicely. A good film.

I watched this movie today freshly released on Amazon Prime. I got attracted by its title mostly in this period that the Marvels' superhero is gonna hit the theatres here in US. Well, not bad, really. There are villains and there's a hero. But It's not the hero everyone is expecting. That's the forte of this film that I find worth watching. It's a two brothers comedy/thriller with a bit of drama very enjoyable and, at times, also quite funny. Its humor is subtle here and almost grotesque there, grotesque like many hilarious situations. This is a niche film that deserves attention. Good music, good acting (mostly the actor that portrays the schizophrenic brother) and very well directed. The production value is not huge (shot in few locations between Italy I could see - btw I love the Ferrari) but this is the proof you don't need much money to produce a decent film.

I enjoyed it. Original, well done. Interesting start with good characters presentation and wraps up nicely.
