Product: Spider-Man 2 (2004)
Rating: 4.0
(4 1/2 stars) Picks up where the original left off.
We continue with Spider-Man/Peter Parker's ups and downs.He meets a more complex villain in Dr. Octopus. Meanwhile, his personal relationships all go in a particular -- and predictable -- direction (DOWNHILL!!!!), he continues to get fired from jobs, his Aunt May can't pay the rent...BUT, this movie has a few surprises for the viewers during and near the end of the film...as well as lead in to what will be Spider-Man 3.(Oh, and for fans of the theme song from the original cartoon series from the 1960s, you'll hear two different versions of it -- one from a street musician and one in the credits, though they're not the original version from that cartoon series.)
