Just got back and could not wait to register my disappointment on the internet, as CBG would say.
Crap, and I love comic book movies, including the first Spider-Man. Things I liked:
Dafoe's cameo (good rhyme)
The main fight between Spidey and Ock. Very well done.
Bruce Campbell.

Things I didn't like:
The OR scene. Particularly grotesque, though appropriate for Raimi.
Face-distorting screams from all the actors, especially Maguire on the train. Keep the mask on, buddy.
Needlessly patronizing exposition on topics like the inhibitor chip and Peter's duty as Spider-Man.
Attempts at humor that feel very flat, like Peter constantly reaching for food or drink on trays at the party or struggling interminably with the broom closet at the beginning.

Etc. Crap, dreck, disappointing.
