I thought this would be better than the first, and in some respects it was, but in others it was the plot of Superman 2. He really has his powers on the fritz so that he becomes a regular dude and quits? The acting isn't as good as the first either. Doc Occ is pretty cool, but parts of the ending are abysmal. I actually think the first one is better. Even if Aunt May hits a villain with an umbrella. It's all a bit... extra... in a desperate kind of way.

It feels like it's trying to deviate from Raimi's horror aesthetic and shots, so much so it doesn't know what it is anymore. The poses are more awkward and there's more CGI, which now looks more dated. It's fine, just not as good as the first, which wasn't a masterpiece by any means.
