Peter Parker has finally managed to strike a balance between his devotion to M.J. and his duties as a superhero. But there is a storm brewing on the horizon. When his suit suddenly changes, turning jet-black and enhancing his powers, it transforms Peter as well, bringing out the dark, vengeful side of his personality that he is struggling to control. Under the influence of the suit, Peter becomes overconfident and starts to neglect the people who care about him most. Forced to choose between the seductive power of the new suit and the compassionate hero he used to be, Peter must overcome his personal demons as two of the most-feared villains yet, Sandman and Venom, gather unparalleled power and a thirst for retribution to threaten Peter and everyone he loves.

Spider-Man 3's 2012 release contains all of the extras from disc one of the original 2007 release. However, it does NOT include the second
bonus disc included in that set (and also included in the 2013 boxed set). A now expired UV digital copy code is
included with purchase.
The oft-debated Spider-Man 3 is generally regarded as the "least" of the Tobey Maguire films, but still enjoys a few highlights. The Blu-ray is fine, technically, but lacks the second disc of extras from the 2007 and 2013 sets. Pick up one of those instead (the 2013 set being the better bet).
