Everything wrong with the first film is back, but much worse.

Rating: 3/10 (8 May 2018)

There's nothing much to say here. I had no idea I could be disappointed by a movie I wasn't even remotely excited for. I didn't like the first Amazing Spider-Man but it was a average movie as a whole, this movie somehow takes all the problems I had with the first one and either got rid of them and introduced some more, or kept them and somehow made them worse. The acting, unlike the original, is awful. No one is enthusiastic about anything and literally no one gave a damn. Electro looks stupid and his origin is just as stupid and Peter's romance with Gwen is inconsistent and not believable in the slightest. It's not as dark as the original but when it does try to get dark and dramatic they fail on every level. The ending, when Gwen dies and Peter is distraught I did not feel a single bit of emotion because they're relationship was done so badly and the acting never convinced me. I honestly do not get why so many people like and defend this movie as it completely bastardizes the Spider-Man character.
