The power of the sun, in the palm of my hand.

Rating: 10/10 (13 February 2015)

This is what I might consider the best superhero sequel yet. It is a lot more firmly directed and outdoes the original like never before. It is also partially an expansion of the origin story in Peter's illusion. This movie in my opinion outdoes even X2, which was promising in almost every aspect it had to offer. The awesome thing about Marvel is that they actually represent the inherent silliness of the comics, something I'd pretty much like to see in every superhero brand. Here are some of the best features of Spider-Man 2.
1. Peter loses his powers so that he is so much easier to relate to as a person. Character development was seemingly a top priority in this movie, a faithful adaptation of Spider-Man: No More.
2. The songs were perfect. (Hold on and Raindrops keep falling on my head, or even the one in the credits.)
3. Doc Ock was a villain with believable motives and considerably more mature than the Green Goblin.
4. At first I thought it lacked action but then the damn train scene changed everything!
Now that SONY and Disney have collaborated with each other to make a version of Spider-Man linked to The Avengers, I sure do hope they top this masterpiece!
