This movie unfortunately will face comparisons. Marvel had an incredibly strong showing this year with Captain America, X-Men and now Guardians of the Galaxy. Spiderman is the weak link. On top of that, I do not think the sequel was as good as the first one. There were some really great scenes. The movie really emphasizes Spiderman's super quick reflexes with slow motion scenes. The effects are well done in those scenes. That being said, they are not nearly as entertaining as Quicksilver's shining moment in X-Men.
Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone are excellent. Spiderman, as a superhero, has always been kind of lame/goofy when it comes to dialogue. But I think the dialogue throughout the movie was relatively weak (You don't have dim sum at 8, Emma Stone!). The screenplay was a little all over the place. I would have been satisfied with just Green Goblin or just Electro, but we unnecessarily get both.
