This movie is for people who have already told themselves they're going to love it no matter what. I saw it last night and I was pretty disappointed. I loved the first one, and I don't think this one lived up to it's "better than the first" billing. Yes, the action is better, and even the special effects are amazing, but the story and flow are definitely sub-par. And don't even get me started on the dialogue. Alright, I'll start...

I defended the bad dialogue in the first movie because I said it was how characters talked in a comic book. However, this time around, the dialogue used was by people who are morons. Take, for example, anything Mary Jane says. My favorite line of hers was when Peter asked her to go get some Chow Mein, and she rudely retorted "Peter, I'm engaged!" As if people who are engaged can never go out to eat with anybody ever. Or the exchange at the end....MJ: "You love me, don't you?" Spidey: "Uh-huh" MJ: "Even though you said you didn't?" Hey, moron, he just said he loved you, you don't have to badger him about it. I really like Kirsten Dunst, but I'm not sure I can blame the writers for her poor performance. She is getting really good at the look of being totally heart-broken though.

One last rant...in the first major action with Doc Ock, there are some hilarious shots of young, hot women with tight shirts and sweaters, clearly showing off their perky breasts. These shots were no mistake, and they couldn't have been more obvious. I was laughing hysterically during one shot. Truth is, that was probably the most entertained I was during the whole movie.
