The Amazing Spider Man 2 (2014) Movie Review or Spider Man 3 all over again

Hello guys and welcome back for another round of movie reviews with Movie Nerd, a place where you can be nerdy about movies and that's OK!

So, with this one we conclude the Andrew Garfield's version of Peter Parker/ Spider Man in a very unceremoniously way but, before I get into that, a bit of a synopsis for you lot and a bit of a spoiler warning for those who haven't seen the movie: it’s great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there’s no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.

Well, this time they stroke out at two. This movie had the same problems as Spider-Man 3. It is, basically, the same movie. It has the exact same faults.

Stuffed with too many plot lines and stories and an overabundance of characters that were forced into the main story and not fully developed. Put there only to set up the Sinister Six movie, which, I think, would never be made. It was pointless and a bad move from Sony. Why did you need Rhino? He appears only in the beginning and at the end, with no impact whatsoever. Why do you have Felicia a.k.a Black Cat when she is very little in the movie? Plus that stupid illness that the Osborns have, that will turned them into a real Green Goblin? Where did that came from? Do we really need another Harry Osborn becomes Green Goblin and fights Peter again? No we don't because we've already seen that.

The action is great, the special effects are awesome and the cast did a very good job but the movie is overcrowded with too many stories that we did not need and too many characters that bring nothing new to the story.

Jamie Foxx was OK as Electro but he is to generic as a villain but I liked the new look, more natural, for the Green Goblin. And Rhino is just there to set up a universe that did not even begin.

Plus, don't get me started with the stupid ending. That is the main reason I despise this movie and Marc Webb. You don't end a movie like that, especially a comic book movie. At least they showed us an iconic comic book moment with the death of Gwen Stacy. Props to that! Overall the movie was a disappointment and nothing more. 6.2/10

OK guys, that was my review for this one. Next up, the yet again reboot of the series with Homecoming. Until then, take care, stay movie nerdy and keep on reviewing!
