    The Amazing Spider-Man 2

    The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is easily one of my most anticipated movies of this year. It is the sequel to 2012's The Amazing Spider-Man, which I personally loved. This movie had three villains, amazing trailers and a plot that just happens to be one of my favourites. So I could say it had a lot going for it. Well, I could say that I WASN'T DISAPPOINTED AND THIS MOVIE IS FREAKING AWESOME! However, it does have its problems. The acting was actually surprisingly great. Andrew Garfield IS Spider-Man. He gives a believable performance and is miles better than Toby Maguire. Emma Stone is loveable as Gwen Stacey and really gives a charming performance. The real standouts though, are Dane Dehaan and Jaime Foxx as the two villains. Dane Dehaan does a fantastic job as Harry Osborn. Jaime Foxx, however, gives a surprisingly incredibly fun performance with lots of character and super cool moments. The special effects in this movie are top-notch. There were some scenes where my mouth literally dropped and I was invested in what was happening on screen. The action scenes were incredible and very fun. It felt like a cartoon, but in the best way possible. The 3D was outstanding and the IMAX is definitely worth your money. The main problems here are in the story. Though it was pretty awesome, with some twists and turns, it was overstuffed and missed character development. The overall story was very fun and has some pretty great moments. The main problem here is what is done with the three villains. Make that two villains. The Rhino is in the movie for a maximum of three minutes, so he doesn't count. Both Harry Osborn and Electro are actually very well developed before they become villains. The problem here is, when they become villains, they are missing motives and just seem like they were forced to be this way. There are way too many subplots and some of them were unnecessary. The score was pretty great and made the movie more exciting sometimes. However, some of the songs that were played were misplaced and didn't work at all for the movie. The pace is pretty good except for some slow moments here and there. Overall, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is pure entertainment. If you go in expecting the movie event of the year, you may be disappointed, However, if you go and expect a great time at the movies, you'll have a blast! RATING: 8.25/10.
