Without exaggeration, 2004's Spider-Man 2 by Sam Raimi is in my opinion the best comic book movie ever written. In this film, you see the struggles of a man trying to juggle his everyday life as Peter Parker with the constant demands and responsibility that come with swinging around each day, protecting innocents as New York's friendly neighborhood wall-crawler. Doctor Otto Octavius is Peter's idol who Peter gets to meet through his best friend Harry Osborn, who hates Spider-Man because he watched as Spider-Man stood over his father Norman Osborn's (The Green Goblin) corpse. Harry does not know that Peter is Spider-Man, which provides an interesting dilemma throughout the film. During an experiment gone wrong, Otto's free will is swept under the might of the artificial intelligence that lurks within the very mechanical arms that he created, and thus his emotions are altered, and he becomes hellbent on creating his sustainable form of energy no matter the cost. When innocent lives are put in danger by the blinded "Doctor Octopus", aka Doctor Octavius, Spider-Man must deal with the responsibility that he accepted in the first film and put said responsibility first and foremost before his own desires as a human being in order to do what is right and be the hero that he is meant to be, living up to Uncle Ben's last piece of advice to him, "With great power comes great responsibility". The story is inspiring, the action is exhilarating, and the editing/transitions are breathtaking at points in the film. In my honest opinion, this movie is a masterpiece of the superhero-film genre and is a must see for those who haven't watched it already.
