The Amazing Spider-Man
Movie • 2012 • Superhero
ReportSynopsis
Peter Parker is an outcast high schooler abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben and Aunt May. 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.

No, but the Dr Connor turns into a lizard creature, so we see him shedding snakelike skin (gross) and with scaly areas on his skin.
Lots of slithery lizards are shown.

The only stuff I noticed was during scenes when the villain loses his regenerated arm. The whole thing falls apart, fingers and all. A little disturbing but not super gory.

Yes depending on your definition of major characters. There's 2 deaths I can think of off the top of my head that can be considered major: Uncle Ben, relative of Peter Parker, and George Stacy, Gwen's dad.

The cops, particularly Gwen’s dad, are trying to stop Spider-Man and attempt to arrest him so they are not portrayed positively at first since they’re antagonizing Spider-Man. However, they end up supporting him and Gwen’s dad saves him, so then some copaganda ensues.

Once on a mouse, three times on Dr. Connor. The first one comes after a digital simulation of an experiment. After that watch for Dr. Connors holding onto a vial, once in his office, twice in the sewers.

Yes, a major plot point is that oscorp is experimenting with eugenics (a dodgy subject with morality and ableism). One of the leading scientists who is in charge of this program referrers to his amputated arm as being cr***ed. To avoid this scene I would skip right when Gwen introduces the doctor.
