The Most Ilogical Super-hero Movie I've Ever Seen.

Rating: 4/10 (31 May 2014)

The CGI, bright lights and terrific effects lead some starry-eyed, hard-core Spidey-fans, blind to the fact that there is a vast number of plot-holes and general bad story lines in this movie sequel.
No one was very impressed with the first Amazing Spiderman, neither was I. In fact, I didn't even particularly want to see the film; I just watched it because my friends and I arrived at the cinema and decided we wouldn't watch Lego Movie for the third time.
Electro was the new villain in this movie, and not for a very good reason. Electro had always been obsessed with Spidey, ever since he met him. Years later (present-time in the movie), he meets him again, and Spidey doesn't act as nice as he did to him a couple of years ago. So, naturally, he wants to kill him. It would have been a better storyline if Spidey did something REALLY out of order, but he wasn't mean to him. He was trying to be nice to him and then Electro just had a mental breakdown and started shooting electricity and flying around and what not.
Which brings me onto my next query: Jamie Foxx (can't remember his real name in the movie), tries to mend a pipe, gets electrocuted, falls into a tank of lizards, and suddenly turns blue, can fly, transport, and shoot electricity? At least the Green Goblin and Doc. Oc. had the decency to become a villain through a science experiment gone wrong. I would have even taken a spider that crash landed on earth and made the villain become Venom over this.
Harry Osbourne is dying. From what? And why is Peter Parker not surprised whatsoever? Harry literally called Peter, said "I'm dying" and Peter honestly acted like it was an everyday thing. I don't think it was Andrew Garfield's acting, I think it was just bad writing. Then, when he becomes the Green Goblin and things are starting to get exciting, the movie ends.
But every cloud has a silver lining, even if it is a thin one. The graphics and CGI were an absolute feast for the eyes. Beautiful, probably the prettiest effects I've seen in a Marvel movie. The twist at the end was surprising, and definitely made me want to watch the next one, which I think will be a big step-up from this one. The third instalment is the only one that I would like to go and see now. And, I spotted a new acting talent. Dane Dehaan, who played Harry Osbourne, definitely caught my eye. His portrayal as Harry was excellent, and all my favourite scenes were with him (although that might also be because the writing for the scenes with Harry were a lot more interesting than the rest of the movie). His acting was great, and he seemed very comfortable while doing it. I'll definitely be watching out for him in the future.
But the endless number of plot lines, plot holes and bad writing couldn't make up for those silver linings. I'd rather watch a well-scripted movie, than a bad one with good effects. I just hope that the third instalment will be better, because the twist at the end definitely picked up my negative spirit.
