When I went to see Spider-man 2 in the there's last summer with my grandma, I was amazed when it was over. I think the energetic feel (this is just my opinion) is better than in Spider-man. The acting was exceptional, especially Afred Molina as Dr. Otto Octavius (a.k.a. Doc Ock). Also, I like how MJ moving on with her dream of acting and her marrying that other guy ( I forgot his name). The CGI and special effects are outstanding and the plot although predictable, is still good. I recently got the DVD for Christmas and I've seen it about 3 times already! Overall I would say that to me it's one of those rare movies where the sequel is actually better than the first!
