I'm really glad that the 'rehashing the origin story' was not done and, at least by now, people should already know how Spider-Man came to be. I was concerned the coming of age premise would be annoying, but they did a great job and had me immersed into the story quickly.
There were several laugh out loud moments for me, so expect a movie that you can have fun with.

Logan Lerman is a very believable actor and from the beginning I am on his side, to do well, to succeed in love and life. I would have loved to be Charlie's friend.
Emma Watson in my opinion, is perfection personified. She plays Sam very well.
Paul Rudd plays Mr Anderson - and he is a shining star in this already amazing cast, downplayed and lovable.
