Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents' disappearance – leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors, his father's former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors' alter ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.

Review from the comment
Seeing the trailers for this film, I couldn't help but wonder how this was going to turn out. Although Spidey isn't my favorite Marvel character, I enjoyed the film. Andrew Garfield makes a really good Peter Parker. He and Emma Stone's Gwen Stacy have solid chemistry. I loved that the real web shooters were in the film. Even though the CGI for The Lizard wasn't 100% everytime in the film, he is one of my favorite villians of the wall-crawler and I'm glad he got his due. Marvel keeps their blazing hot streak going with The Amazing Spider-Man.
