Not nearly as good as the first one

Rating: 5/10 (10 July 2012)

Not a fan of this one. I believe it was re-booted was too soon. The first one is so recent there's no way (in my opinion) not to be influenced by both the screenplay and even the actors of the first.
The review on the IMDb home page of this movie indicates this one is funnier than the original. I don't know what movie that reviewer was watching, but no way was this one funnier. In fact, in my opinion, there wasn't one funny line or scene. Actually, they tried so hard to make it funny that the lines fell very flat. I'm thinking the reviewer was either part of the movie making process or is related to someone in this film.
I'm not going to fault the 2 main actors in this movie, as I think they were let down by a marginal screenplay. I've not seen Garfield in anything else so I'm not going to grade him. And it will take a lot for me to say anything bad about Emma Stone as she's just way too cute.
