Rate Spider-Man 2 [No Spoilers]

Am I the only one that thought this movie sucked? Everything about it was either cheesy, cliched or just plain dumb. I mean the octopus man, jesus christ, wasn't he the stupidest looking villain ever. I don't expect much from these sort of movies, but they couldve at least been consistent in their stupidity. Otto takes about 50 punches to the head from someone who can support a 20 ton girder and doesn't even bleed. And why didn't the police just get a sharpshooter to put a bullet between the villains eyes? I know its just a movie, but they couldve come up with something at least slightly plausible.

Two words for what this movie and the next shouldve been about, VENOM and CARNAGE. I gave this 4 becasue I did actually get a little bit of enjoyment from the film, mostly because MJ is so hot.

I think you may be. Doc Ock looked like Doc Ock did in the comics. A portly guy with four mechanical tentacles. What was he supposed to look like?

For the record I hope they don't do Venom or Carnage, never cared for either villian. I would like to see Spidey wear the black suit though.

Great Movie! Loved the train scene and Doc Ock looked really cool. Perfect combination of action, drama, and comedy. It really felt like a movie based on a Spiderman comic book in a good way.

Liked it though I felt it sagged in the middle. Also felt the scene with the neighbour didn't come to a conclusion. The action was definitely fantastic though, and the movie was at it's best using big, bold strokes.

Hope they don't use too much of a 'science' villain for part 3. I think it'll probably be Green Goblin manipulating another villain or vice versa.

Well, I'm assuming that Harry will be the primary villian in the third movie, and that they'll tie up all the loose ends at that point, one way or the other. The three primary actors (Macguire, Dunst and Franco) were signed for a three picture deal. Raimi may want to move on to other projects after the third picture, as well.

I'll be real suprised if Macguire or Dunst expresses interest in doing a fourth movie...and quite frankly, I don't think Harry will be around for Franco to have a choice to make.

This is a pet peeve of mine too. It cool to have superheroes who are indestructable being thrown about loads (like X2 & Superman 2). But when you get morals being wacked around without any consequences it's just weird. MJ would have had several broken bones in the real world. Spoiler

The car through the window was also strange. If PP hadn't been Spider-man, he'd have been splatted, and Otto's plan would have been aborted.

Underworld Spoiler

Spoiler

This was particularly bizarre in Underworld. Kate Beckinsale's character got thrown around loads without any consequences, and then died after being tapped very lightly.
