I don't know about you but I like my super hero's to be tough and macho. Not emotional and sensitive. This one one of the first of a new style of film. The Dra-Action film. Drama / Action flick. The best of both worlds. Something for the men and women. The men get the fast action(not much action) they like, while the women get the getting in touch with your feelings side. Everyone this side of the North Pole loved this movie. Even Roger Ebert put it on his top 10 list of 2004. I just don't get it. It was rather boring to me. The only thing missing was Dr. Phil telling Spidy to open his heart. I must say that the special effects were much better in this film then Spider-Man 1. I give it a 4 out of 10.
