Spider-Man 2 (2004)

Genre: Superhero
Directed by: Sam Raimi
Cast: Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, James Franco, Alfred Molina
Running Time: 127 minutes

 


Two years after the events of the previous film, Peter Parker is crumbling under the pressure that being Spider-Man puts on his personal life. As he decides to hang up the superhero costume, a new threat comes around in the form of Harry Osborn, Peter Parker’s best friend, who took over as CEO of his father’s company, and Otto Octavius, a scientist who is transformed by a failed experiment into to Doctor Octopus, a major threat to the city.

This sequel was an improvement upon the first installment. The story is better mapped out, and the acting is also more solid. It was easier to get emotionally involved in the conflict within Peter Parker, who must chose between love, friendship and duty.
