Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: More than a few critics hailed Spider-Man 2 as "the best superhero movie ever," and there's no compelling reason to argue--thanks to a bigger budget, better special effects, and a dynamic, character-driven plot, it's a notch above Spider-Man in terms of emotional depth and rich comic-book sensibility. Ordinary People OscarĀ®-winner Alvin Sargent received screenplay credit, and celebrated author and comic-book expert Michael Chabon worked on the story, but it's director Sam Raimi's affinity for the material that brings Spidey 2 to vivid life. When a fusion experiment goes terribly wrong, a brilliant physicist (Alfred Molina) is turned into Spidey's newest nemesis, the deranged, mechanically tentacled "Doctor Octopus," obsessed with completing his experiment and killing Spider-Man (Tobey Maguire) in the process. Even more compelling is Peter Parker's urgent dilemma: continue his burdensome, lonely life of crime-fighting as Spider-Man, or pursue love and happiness with Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst)? Molina's outstanding as a tragic villain controlled by his own invention, and the action sequences are nothing less than breathtaking, but the real success of Spider-Man 2 is its sense of priorities. With all of Hollywood's biggest and best toys at his disposal, Raimi and his writers stay true to the Marvel mythology, honoring Spider-Man creators Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, and setting the bar impressively high for the challenge of Spider-Man 3. --Jeff Shannon

A little Better than the First, Alot Better than Part 3 that's for sure. Good Movie, Although I can't get over why this guy plays Spider-Man/Peter Parker. Good Spidey Flick and great to watch along with Part 1.

Usually studios make sequels to mine an already played out vein. By keeping the same actors and continuing the franchise with a relatively short delay, the continuity made the film work. Fine performances by the leads were enhanced by the tremendous special effects. An excellent movie not just a weak rip off of an earlier work.

Excellent, excellent, excellent! Spider-Man 2 not only maintains the extroadinary story telling, action, and acting from the previous film, but it improves! It is arguably the best Marvel film of all time! (X-Men 2 is in this same category). From beginning to end, Spider-Man 2 is an inspiring and exciting tale that will have you wanting to watch again and again.
Like I said about the first film, the best part about this film is its story. One of the best things about this film are Spider-Man's ... Read More

The action is always simple and direct : save the victims of the bad guy. The method is always the same: stop the bad guy's mechanics by throwing a few strings in its gears. The rest of it is building up a network, in that case a cobweb. But this is a film, not an electronic game and we are at the cinema not in front of a game console. So the film adds a good layer of sentimental events and feelings. The girl friend from far behind. She is afraid and fascinated. She is jealous and possessive. She is ... Read More

Spidey does NOT take his mask off EVER!!!! Doc Ock, Harry, MJ, a TRAINLOAD of passengers ALL know who he is or at least what he looks like. C'mon Raimi you wad, cut the unmasking crap you are a loser and keep spidey's mask on. You idiot. I can't believe you are responsible for The Evil Dead one of the best flicks OF all time.
Also note the cameo on the train by the redneck Jake A.K.A.Danny Hicks from Evil Dead 2.
