I though it was excellently executed. The casting was great, the soundtrack was pretty decent, and they picked the setting perfectly. Too often its either too futuristic to relate to, or too modern day to really flow well with the concepts they're using.

I totally agree!!! It was funny, but yet so cool at the same time. I didn't think that they could pull it off so well. I guess the last Spiderman movie left a bad taste in my mouth.
