The best Superhero movie ever made!!!!

Rating: Null/10 (20 June 2008)

Actually, today I repeated seeing Spider-Man 2, after making a Top 55 film list, to see if I made the right choice in including it, and I have to say, I did...
First off, Sider-Man 2 is the best superhero film ever made, I think. There are a lot, but none come to the development that this film had. It is an achievement, not only in creating another good Spider-Man film after the original, but in succeeding in making it even better than the first. First off, it is so well made. It starts off strong, and it keeps going and going. It moves at a very well pace. It is not too fast, but it gives time to scenes that make the audience emotionally react to the characters. That is what makes it so strong. The characters are given depth and time in creating, and they do not come off as cheesy or unrealistic Marvel characters. Peter Parker is treated as a real human being, and that is the main lesson this film gives. Throughout the film, Peter Parker is trying to learn who he really is. It is a film about self discovery, and I think it gives off very strong points. There are very well-written speeches, yes, they seem a bit clichéd, but that is because this film is reinforcing themes that usual superheroes need to give, and in that way it succeeds. Actually, I had never seen this film and thought 'wow, that was great writing' but this time I did. I don't just mean in the dialogue, but in the writing itself. The film gives a lot of very memorable little comedic moments. For instance, when Peter Parker falls down trying to use his powers, and then he touches a car and it starts beeping. This scene is so well put, so well done, that we can't help but laughing even though it seems 'cheesy'. Never before had I seen a movie and thought that the cheesiness of it made it so good. But this film, the cheesy parts are so well-intended, I couldn't help but laugh. This film succeeds in making the humor side work. The other side of it that is really strong is the acting. This time in my viewing, I found the acting to stand-out. First off, James Franco gives a very memorable supporting performance of a young man in search of a little revenge, and lost inside. The scene when he slaps Peter in the party is so well acted, by Tobey Maguire too. Another scene that I thought I found myself thinking 'This looks like an Oscar-worthy acting moment' was when Peter Parker confesses to Aunt May what happened the night Uncle Ben died. The acting from both Tobey Maguire, and the horror in Rosemary Harris' face was so strong, just wow. Kirsten Dunst did not annoy me in this film like she did in the first and third. It seems like in this film, she really conveys the emotions her character is going though very well. Of course, this is a blockbuster, and in the action scenes it does not disappoint. There are not many, but each one is very well done. The special effects are also top-notch. It's Oscar Win for the effects was very well deserved. I view this film as an action Blockbuster with brains. It is not for the people who want non-stop action, and that is a VERY good thing. It is a very solid and strong film, and it is top-notch in every aspect. That is why this is Marvel's best film to date, and why it is the best superhero film I have ever seen. Not just that, but it is one of the best action Blockbuster films ever, if not the best... 9/10
