Better than the first

Rating: 10/10 (30 June 2004)

As good as Spiderman was, II is better. What set Spiderman apart from other comic book heroes was his alter ego. You got to know who Peter Parker was and felt an empathy. Sam Raimi really brings Peter Parker out in this movie. Spidey II has better visual effects, an arguably better villain, great dialog, a super plot and MJ looks as good as ever, Jameson is as big a butt as ever. Perhaps the best part about this movie is that it set up Spiderman III perfectly. Perhaps the weakest part of this movie is the soundtrack. I forgot it before I left the theater. However I paid to see the webslinger in action and that's what we got. What more can I say? Get in line and fork over your bucks to see this one.
