Using his mechanical tentacles, Octavius is dubbed "Doctor Octopus" and threatens to endanger the lives of the people of New York City. Spiderman must stop him from annihilating the city.
Boasting an entertaining villain and deeper emotional focus, this is a nimble sequel that improves upon the original.Due to this reason,it has become one of the best sequel ever made particularly of that of a superhero film.A lot of talent to lavish on a single movie, but the result is uncommonly smart for the genre, and not just smart but tremendously enjoyable.There are plenty of surprises in this compelling Hollywood cartoon-inspired movie that tops everything else in the genre especially as it improves on the first one in terms of action and comedy.Overall,it's a solid movie with some memorable moments.
