Funny, emotional, clever, and amazingly good!

Rating: 10/10 (31 August 2004)

The story: Very good and clever. Keeps a very good sense of continuity within the comic book and uses a few juicy story lines from the book as well. At first, rumors had it that Peter Parker simply loses his powers, but the writers made something very interesting out of that twist rather than him simply "losing" his powers. I won't say anything more than that on that subject. Peter has relationship problems with M.J. and Harry as he is being tortured through the life of being Peter Parker and Spider-Man. On the side, he battles Doctor Octopus, personally I thought he was a fantastic villain and amazingly menacing.
Spider-Man 2 is without a doubt the greatest superhero film of all-time. It captures a very unique style of action that makes it memorable from beginning to end. The acting was pretty good. James Franco did an amazing job as he had the most dramatic scenes and Molina is one heck of a villain in the movie. This movie has fairly an even blend of love story and action movie, it will leave you wanting more. Sam Raimi pulls it off perfectly.
9.8/10
