Disappointing Sequel !Spoiler Alert!

Rating: 3/10 (3 May 2014)

Before going into detail the best way I can explain my thoughts about Spiderman 2 is to compare it to Star Wars II and III. The dialogue from Andrew Garfield felt just as wooden and contrived as many of Hayden Christensen's lines. When he was Peter Parker it was painful watching him. As Spiderman things felt more natural.
Jaimie Foxx is a great actor but the role as Electro/Max Dillon was not a good fit. In large part I believe this to be because of the atrocious writing. If they had given him a straight role instead of turning him into attempted comedy relief like Jar Jar Binks it may have been better.
While watching the character of Harry Osborn I kept having flash backs to Edward Furlong in Terminator 2. I don't know if it was the makeup or the acting.
Lastly what is it with remakes that requires the death of main characters?
Big Spoiler Alert!! Do you remember the first x-men series? Cyclops, Jean Grey and Prof X die. Unfortunately Spiderman 2 follows the same formula. Instead of writing a well developed story lets create small stories and kill off the loose ends so we don't have to deal with them. Norman Osborn...dead and to make room for a new love interest lets kill off Gwen Stacey too. I mean they already killed of her father.
The only moment in the movie that stood out was about 5 minutes from the end when a kid decides to fill in for Spidey.
All in all the money spent at the theater was a waste.
