I loved The Amazing Spider-Man. Peter looked and felt like a normal kid. Gwen was intelligent and not just a damsel in distress. Peter actually got bruised from his fights as Spider-Man. He also made smart ass comments to people in the costume, which is something the Raimi movies severely lacked. My biggest complaints was the entire thing revolving around Lizard's plan and that this movie is really just the first episode to a high budget theatrical tv series. As such, if its sequels are bad, this movie becomes worthless.

I enjoy Raimi's duology, but they are not without issues. The first movie is pretty good outside of that god awful Goblin suit. My god, they got an actor with an amazing scary face to play Goblin, USE IT!!!! The second movie, though, is like 80% Peter and 20% Spider-Man. The plot just doesn't make sense (you lose your powers because you don't want them, riiiiiiiiiiiight), Doc Ock was just mind controlled, Dunst really showed how terrible her MJ is, it ended on a cliffhanger, and someone seems to be screaming every 10 minutes. That is not to say it is a bad movie, as Jameson is fantastic, the elevator scene is great (in both versions), Campbell's cameo rocks, the action is good, it had a lot of great moments (and Aasif Mandvi), it's just brought down by the plot, MJ, and Doc Ock not being evil.

And what about 3 cause ramie movies were a trilogy
