We all have secrets: the ones we keep... and the ones that are kept from us.

You always open yourself up to criticism when you attempt a review of movies spawned from comics.
The purists will jump at any chance to criticize any deviation. Not having a background in the comics, I opine only about the movies themselves.
I love spider-man. My favorite is Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2, with the best of the series' villains, Doc Ock. I am going to go out on a limb and say this is the second best.
It was very realistic, in my opinion, from the typical adolescent hi- jinks by Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) in the beginning, to a real attraction with Gwen (Emma Stone), to the realization of his mission in life as outlined by his uncle Ben, played brilliantly by Martin Sheen.
Denis Leary was great, and Rhys Ifans has come a long way from Spike.
Curious to know how long he will be able to stay away from Gwen.
