Ahhh...... Spiderman 2.... what can I say... this movie was awesome. I love you, Spiderman! First, let's talk about the acting. Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, Alfred Molina, Rosemary Harris, and James Franco. Tobey Maguire, I must say, did a really good job of showing emotions, using humor, and giving Peter Parker/Spiderman a good character. Kirsten Dunst, still hot from the first movie gave another good performance. Rosemary Harris did an excellent performance with her experience in acting. Wow, Alfred Molina poured his heart into his performance of Otto Octavius/Doctor Octopus, in fact, I don't think anyone else could have done a better job of being the scientist turned villain. And James Franco, still good and without Willem Dafoe this time, not that it's a bad thing.
Now, the story...SPOILERS, OH MY GOSH!!!...
Peter Parker's life is thrashed and abused throughout the movie, and it left me feeling depressed and feeling bad for him, which made me happy because movies don't usually do that to me. Because of his life being thrashed, he begins to lose his powers and ultimately decides to stop leading a double life and throws his Spiderman costume in the trash. But when chaos erupts in the streets after he becomes Peter Parker again, he decides to become Spiderman again.
On the other hand, there's Otto Octavius, a brilliant scientist who is trying to perfect interesting scientific stuff...you know what I mean... During a public experiment, though, while using his super special brain-powered tentacles, the experiment goes awry and his wife is killed along with his tentacles permanently attaching to his nervous system. He blacks out and is taken to a hospital in one of the most intense scenes that's not in a horror or war movie I have ever seen. Sam Raimi, the director of Spiderman, as many know, also directed Evil Dead, a really gory and cool B-movie, and this scene is hinting to the Evil Dead movie, I think. Anyways, the tentacles go crazy and kill all the doctors in the room and the doctors use chainsaws, yay!!! Well, Doc Ock decides to finish his crazy experiment in a rundown laboratory near the Brooklyn Bridge and Spidey goes to stop it and I'm not going to ruin that for you...
On yet another hand, Mary Jane Watson, Harry Osborne, and Aunt May all have their problems with Spidey and Peter Parker. MJ has problems with Peter because he can't make time for her important things like her hit play on Broadway. Harry troubles Pete because of his "friendship" with Spidey. Aunt May troubles him with money problems and when Pete tells her the truth about Uncle Ben's death, she shuns him for a while...
Finally, the graphics and sound... The first really cool sequence was when Octavius's experiment went awry; the sound was truly cool and the graphics went well with it... and Octavius's arms were looking real. Then Spidey and Ock's fight on the subway had me shaking in my seat... you'll see...
All in all, this movie was crazy, cool, awesome, and hilarious with awkward moments like Spidey in the elevator and funny stuff like the violin player and J. Jonah Jameson. There are even surprise appearances by Stan Lee, creator of MARVEL COMICS, and Bruce Campbell, star of Evil Dead, who was really funny... And the end, the end sets up Spiderman 3 so well. I can't tell because it's like telling the end of the Sixth Sense, it would spoil the movie for you...
Don't believe anyone who disses this movie... it can't be made fun of...
That's my review, now go see the movie, DARN IT!!! **** out of ****
