Obviously due to time constraints, the movie cannot stay true to a comic book storyline, that's fine.
The two major issues I had were:
1) The MJ/Parker love story takes up too much screentime

The symbiont feeds off anger. Peter Parker is not normally an angry guy. Showing how much he loves then loses MJ explains why the symbiont is able to turn him into an asshole. Now the sequence of him walking down the street like Saturday Night Fever was gay could have been cut down( we got it after the first 20 seconds ) and the whole dance routine at the bar where MJ works was dumb. They could have cut that scene down. The aunt explaining how she got her wedding ring could have been cut. She could have just gave him the ring. I've never said the movie was perfect( no movie is ) but it doesn't suck.
