All three movies are cheeseball, don't know why exactly SM3 magnified fanboy ranting. I think the problem was that Peter and Mary showed their dark sides in this film, and this made them unattractive and unlikable for a spell, but I thought that was the whole point.

peter's darker side really did it for me with the ridiculous hair, clothes, and "attitude" you have to admit nothing was as silly as that in either of the first two movies...i think the way in which dark peter was written and the way in which mcguire chose to play him were both very ineffective.

the fight scene between peter and harry was just crap imo "i defended you in high school, now i'm gonna kick your little a$$" awesome dialogue

the scene with MJ and harry where they're in his kitchen....

there's just so many scenes that were horribly written imo. the movie just felt all over the place to me, whereas 1 and 2 both had much tighter-feeling scripts.
