Story
Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man returns in the sequel to the record-breaking blockbuster movie debut
for Marvel Comics' flagship character. Tobey Maguire returns as Peter Parker, the nerd-turned-hero, to face new threats to
New York City and the people he loves.
High Points
The high points in this film are many. The story is excellent and captures the essence of both Spidey and
Octopus. The special Effects are rather realistic and the action sequences are ful of high octane superhero action. Yeah.
Anyway the direction is also good though there are a few campy scenes to cringe at. Elfman's score is really good, though
nothing spectacular. An excellent sequel indeed..the best superhero movie...not so much.
Low Points
The Main Low Points in this film lie in the script and acting. The actors have improved since the first
film...but Tobey still sucks. Anyway, the script contains a lot of really awkward lines far too awkward to enjoy. And
what's worse is that the first film really didn't have that many.
I give Spider-Man 2 a B+
