THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 (Theatrical Release USA 2014)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì 

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 seems to be all over the place due to lack of focus and too many points of view. The film does have action but the action and animation seem to clash. The Harry Osborn character seems to be not very well thought out. The film does provide an explanation of the death of Spider-Man’s parents, but this seems to be the only real reason the film was produced and everything else is just to fill in time.

Storyline 

Spiderman works to keep evil away from good.

Thank you to Director Marc Webb for directing effort. Thank you to Producers Avid Arad and Matt Tolmach for making the film possible. Characters/cast include: Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield), Young Peter Parker (Max Charles), Gwen Stacey (Emma Stone), Max Dillon (Jamie Fox), Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), Richard Parker (Campbell Scott), and Mary Parker (Embeth Davidtz). 

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe? 

Maybe. It works to some extent and has a fair storyline but seems to be a bit convoluted in presentation.
