To repeat something I said months ago when I saw the first trailers, and was confirmed in my watching:
This feels like a new movie, not a reboot.
New villain, new plot, new love interest.

Our integrity sells for so little, but it is all we really have. It is the very last inch of us, but within that inch, we are free. I shall die here. Every inch of me will perish. Every inch but one. An inch... It is small, and fragile, and it is the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us. I hope that, whoever you are, you escape this place. I hope that the world turns and things get better. But I hope most of all that you understand that even though I will never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you, I love you. With all my heart, I love you. It seems strange that my life should end in such a terrible place, but for three years, I had roses, and apologized to no one.

+1 This movie was 100% new and not a reboot IMHO. I actually enjoyed it more than Avengers, but mostly because I like spidey better. Spderman 2 is on TV right now, and having not seen it in a while its so cheesy and drawn out through most scenes

I think it's unfair to compare the two. It's a new movie alltogether. Both have their pros and cons.

I really enjoyed it, I think it was better than the first three films and was "true" to the images that I had always had in my mind when reading the comics.
