A Film About Redemption
I dug Spiderman 3. Sure, it's long and bloated and the Emo Peter sequence is silly, but even that "Mask"-like dance scene builds to a pretty biting and painful denouement. I don't think it's too much to tip that the film is about redemption; ultimately, there really are no bad guys once Parker learns to control his anger and forgive himself and others.
Subtle it's not, but any film with it's spirituality so clear and clean and on message deserves props in my book.
