Spider-Man 2 (2004)
9/10
One of the best films I've seen in a long time.
17 July 2004
Ever since Lord of the Rings Return of the King came out, I've been watching movies such as The Terminal and Harry Potter Prisoner of Azkaban, which by themselves are enough to pass the time, but not enough to bring out tears or whatever they were supposed to do. But when I watched Spiderman 2, I was completely in the movie, even to the extent that I almost couldn't stand the soft crunch of the M&Ms in my mouth, afraid that it might have me lose even a single word that was said.

Not only was the script and scenery superb (not cheap like in The Terminal, where all they needed was an airport lobby), there was also great acting and directing. Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, Alfred Molina, and all the other actors said every line with exactly what it needed. They said every word as it was supposed to be said, whether soberly or with an as-a-matter-of-fact voice. It was as if every scene had a purpose, as if every smile and gesture meant something tremendous. That with the action sequences done so that I could feel every blow dealt and received, I believe that Spiderman 2 is something that you must see.

Overall, I rated it 10 out of 10
