Spider-Man Does Whatever a Spider Can and More
This is definitely in the top three greatest superhero movies ever. It surpasses the first one in almost every way. The first one was definitely fun and was a great superhero movie, but it did have it's faults. This one, on the other hand didn't have any faults, at least not any I recognized on first viewing.I liked the fact that MJ was much stronger in this movie then she was in the first one. May I also add that Kirsten Dunst is still hot. Doc Ock is a much better villain than the Green Goblin and he makes for better action scenes. The story line is great. I like the fact that character development is in the foreground rather than just something that happens (or doesn't as most superhero movies go) when there isn't any action.Sam Raimi's style is perfect for this movie. With his direction and the casts talent and chemistry the movie works and then some.I barely see movies opening night because I hate crowded theaters, but the teaser trailers were enough to spark my interest so that by the time the movie came out I couldn't wait.
