Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Spider-Man 3 is finally getting some well-deserved appreciation 17 years after its initial release was met with a mixed reception. Anticipation was high for 2007's Spider-Man 3, the third chapter in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man series. While the Marvel film did exceptionally well at the box office, grossing $895 million worldwide, it was met with a divisive response from critics and audiences.
Related Why Sam Raimi Thinks Spider-Man 3 Failed Sam Raimi admits that Spider-Man 3 failed and he knows exactly what went wrong with it, and it's all about the characters – but is he right? According to Collider, Spider-Man 3 had a Monday gross of $760,000 from 466 domestic theaters. Compared to the other films, it outperformed Spider-Man, which made $681,000, but came short of Spider-Man 2, which made $805,000. Spider-Man 2's success is unsurprising as many consider it the best of the trilogy, but Spider-Man 3 beating the first is unexpected. It shows that many have grown an appreciation for the film over time, and many elements of Spider-Man 3 deserve praise.
While Sandman's connection to Peter is controversial, it does give Peter a good internal obstacle that he must overcome. Secondly, Spider-Man 3 boasts some of the best action sequences in the Raimi trilogy. The subway fight between Sandman and Spider-Man is engrossing, and the final fight with Venom is an exciting climax despite Venom's mishandling. It's also a hilarious movie, whether that was intentional or not.
