Spider-Man 2 2004

I've decided to rewatch this movie after almost one month without watching anything, not just because it is one of my favorites superhero movie, but also because it isn't just a simple superhero movie... it has a strong message behind it, something to talk, something that in certain way connects with what I'm living. Because of that, I thought it was the right momento to see it and I am glad I was right!
Spider-Man 2 is a movie that goes over the action and fantasy, because it can treats Spider-Man/Peter Parker as a character with a lot of layers, so the movie approaches another aspects of his life and how - different of what we see in a great part of the superhero movies - the his superpowers are actually a weight that he has to carry, because even with them (and why not because of them...?) Peter Parker is nothing more than a fucked up guy with a horrible life, this is the Spider-Man essence.
Although the movie has some dated shots, it doesn't disturb the immersion, Sam Raimi puts his identity in this movie and puts some horror elements that can be associated with another of this movies. This is not a perfect movie, but certainly is one of the best superhero movies ever made.
