Awful, Abominable. Insulting. Waste of time.

Rating: 1/10 (20 April 2014)

Wow, that was really bad. I didn't want to hate this movie because I am a huge spider man fan, but this...My God it was horrific. It seriously, seriously sucks. I don't even know where to begin. First of all the characters: First of all, the characters are annoying and crap. As much as I like Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, their characters were absolutely awful. Gwen is almost a nothing character and the writers obviously don't get her character. And don't even get me started on Peter. He is an annoying, unlikable, smug idiot who is so far from the spider man in the comics it is shocking. As for the villains: RUBBISH. Dane DeHaan and Jamie Foxx deliver good performances, but their characters are underused, worthless and hardly anything they do makes the slightest lick of sense. The friendship between Peter and Harry is also so painfully underdeveloped and just makes me not care about Harry as a character. What also annoys me is that the movie is basically just a 2 hour advertisement for the next movie. No joke. Also, while the action sequences look impressive, I don't really care, as all the action that was in the movie was all in the trailers anyway. No joke. I am honestly enraged that I paid money to see this movie, only to be met with basically a 2 hour advertisement for the next movie, which I am not going to see after this travesty by the way. Very, very rarely does a movie make me feel angry, but this one ticks all the boxes. Almost no plot, illogical plot holes, crap characters, awful CGI, boring story (Wait, was there even a story?) way too much action and a waste of good actors. But what really sealed my utter disgust and hatred for this movie was the ending. That ending might as well have been Mark Webb sticking his middle finger up to the audience, because it was basically him saying "OK, I know you have all had to sit through 2 hours of crap, so here is 2 iconic comic book scenes that we have shoved into the movie at the last minute and then resolved just as quickly to appease fan boys. Happy now?" It enrages me that Mark Webb actually had the utter gall to do that. As for the Rhino: Shoehorned into the movie for no reason other than to sell toys. That's it. That's all I'm going to say. The amazing spider man 2 is one of the worst films I have ever seen and is up there with Batman and Robin and Catwoman as one of the worst comic book movies of all time. And I say that without hyperbole. To any one who actually wants a plot in a movie, do NOT watch this. AVOID!!! Without question, avoid this movie. 1/10.
