Every Single Spider-Man Movie Ranked From Worst To Best

7. Spider-Man 3 (2007)

Considering some of the AWFUL comic book movies that have been released over the years, the idea that Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 3 is considered anywhere near the same bracket is an absolute travesty. But there's no underplaying just how much of a disappointment it was at the time in the wake of the spectacular Spider-Man 2.

Infamously destabilised by Sony insisting on way too much creative control and forcing Raimi to include Venom, the sequel was a picture of excess and very obviously bore the marks of Raimi's disinterest in making a film for someone else. Had he been able to make the film he wanted, we'd probably have seen Spider-Man 4 too, so it's all a huge shame.

There are things to like about it, but the misuse of three great villains was criminal and that image of emo Peter Parker dancing down the street is burned horribly into fans collected consciousnesses by now.
