This one was Much better then the first

Rating: 8/10 (29 December 2004)

I know that in the first one they had to get the characters into place, (which to me they took forever to do) making it so dry in areas that I found myself dozing off and on through it. But, in Spiderman 2 they got right down to business while putting Doctor Octopus's character into place. To me, the action was so packed that I had no chance of dozing off. Casting Molina was a good chose for Dr. Octopus, and he's not that bad of an actor. McGuire and Dunst still need a little work though, but they are getting better in their acting as they get older. To me this one was much more entertaining then the first movie. And the two things I liked most about this movie was: 1. they didn't go from scene to scene in a comic book style and 2. The computer graphics were wonderfully done. The one thing I didn't like though, was the last five minutes, when they decide to turn it into a chick flick. That, I could have done without. (I know, it was like that in the comic and they are trying to stay true to it). But still, I could have done without the mushiness.
