This story has everything the first one had but with more. The choices from the original are now consequences in this one. The villain is just as iconic as Green Goblin and again, has a personal relationship with Peter to add extra emotional weight. So if you ask me, this one doubles everything the first one did, and the first one was already flawless. It's just as attracting as the first one and will have you engaged, Spider-Man fan or not since there's action and drama. The theme still focuses on responsibility as does the 3rd one. The acting is still great with less cheesy dialogue than the first. The cinematography improves in my opinion and seems more cinematic and dramatic. The editing and pacing takes a little more time but fits all its scenes perfectly. With great sound and keeping the iconic theme. Sam Raimi improved on what was already flawless and is truly one of a kind. 10/10. A+.
