You know a film with this much hype tends to do nothing but disappoint for it never seems to completely live up to the expectations of such loyal and true fans; however Spiderman 2 is not one of those films. The ending was greeted by a standing ovation and the theatre had a sense in the air of a group of people who did not want it to end. I know I did not. Spiderman 2 delves deep into character development, along with providing breath taking action, edge of your seat suspense, and laugh out loud moments. Its darker, edgier, more action packed (as stated before), better written, and better acted than the first film. Its is unequivocally the best superhero film to date. If it cost 200 million to make this film then I think Columbia just made the best 200 million dollar investment cause it will make it back in one weekend and maybe even more. Those reading this, stop what you are doing, get dressed, and go see it. You wont regret it and neither will all the friends you tell about it! Go spidey!
