	Author	Review
United States	David Ansen Newsweek	"Considerably more entertaining (...) The juiciest battle here is Spidey vs. Spidey, or, if you prefer, superego vs. id. When Peter starts to go seriously bad, the movie becomes seriously fun."	POS
United Kingdom	Chris Hewitt Empire	"Still smart, still exciting and still action-packed. It’s just a shame to note that, after promising greatness, all 'Spider-Man 3' delivers is satisfaction (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Ann Hornaday The Washington Post	"Overlong, visually incoherent, mean-spirited and often just plain awful"	NEG
United States	Todd McCarthy Variety	"Big problem with third Spidey is the script (...) The visual effects will have fans wide-eyed throughout."	NEU
United States	Claudia Puig USA Today	"'Spidey 3' oozes with excitement (...) [It] is solidly entertaining and possesses dazzling special effects, but it falls short of the near-perfection of the Spidey sequel (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"In an era of cynical, cash-in sequels, 'Spider-Man 3', like its two predecessors, has a heartbeat that resonates just as strongly as its box-office ka-ching.	POS
United States	Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times	"All these mismatched pieces give "Spider-Man 3" an ungainly, cumbersome feeling, as if its plot elements were the product of competing contractors who never saw the need to cooperate on a coherent final product."	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"It's over-long and messy with a number of disjointed storylines. There's no clear villain to boo and, by the end, no clear hero to cheer (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"'Spider-Man 3' is, in short, a mess (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEG
