(NO SPOILERS WILL BE IN THIS REVIEW)
I went into this movie with such high hopes for a number of reasons. one is because i thought that the first amazing spider-man movie was a great reboot. although i still do like the Sam Raimi spider-man movies but i felt that the first amazing spider man told Peter Parkers story much better and that Andrew Garfield was a better Peter Parker.
i think my main problem with this movie is that it is hardly it's own movie it relied way to much on build up for the sequels rather than the premise of it's own movie that this film is starving for. a lot of peoples worries in this movie was that there were to many villains but honestly you don't need to worry about that.
i think the weakness of this reboot is probably the villains. the first amazing spider-man movie had lizard who by the end of the movie wasn't even that memorable he just seemed like that big cliché of a superhero movie and that is what electro is in the amazing spider-man 2. i won't talk much more about electro because that will be in a different review. the peter parker and Gwen Stacey story line is really good because the relationship that they have is in a word, sweet, shall we say and the conflict that starts going on between them is overly realistic but with what's happening, their story line keeps jumping back and forth to the point that it starts to annoy you. Jamie Foxx as electro was really really good but the biggest let down was that even though he is the villain mostly seen in the movie, he is not the main villain.
i didn't expect this movie to be fantastic but i didn't expect it to be as bad as it was.
