Spider-Man 2 2004

Crikey... What a mess.

Bigger budget. Better CG. More storyline. Yet it messes up a lot of this due to the original sin - shitty casting.

Macguire is more wooden than the Ark. Dunst seems to have had a labotomy so she only has one facial expression - and what the hell is that final look that closes the movie. Franco stinks up every scene he is in now.

Doc Ock is a better villain this time round but the motivations and execution are flipped more times than a coin.

The plot is an absolute mess but the pacing is even worse. Silly scenes added in for levity might work if they weren't overly long. And the massive dramatic scenes lack essence due to the poor casting.

I'm calling tosh on this one and Macguire's terrible stint as Spidey.

5/10
