Introduction
I love all the trilogies worked by Raimi (yes, even the Spider-man 3) but I do not like the The
Amazing Spiderman 1. I was skeptical when I wanted to watch this movie, but I was wrong
and I think this second sequel is really great. Unlike its predecessor, this film is full of action,
humor, and emotional. Played by the big players, the story is well-written. The action is
really spectacular and the final scene makes me satisfied.

Evaluation
However I have to criticize about this film addressed to Paul Giamatti who plays Rhino. His
appearance is too over. His acting also does not show that he is a feared villain. It would be a
serious problem for the next Spiderman series. So I hope he can improve his acting better
than before.

Interpretative Recount
The story begins when Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) struggled to maintain his relationship
with Gwen (Emma Stone) after her father’s death. His actions also causes the emergence of a
new enemy, Electro, a villain played by James Foxx. Peter also continue to investigate what
happened to his father and reunited with his old friend, Harry Osborn. Peter’s relationship
with Gwen is the primary story here, and it wouldn’t work nearly as well if not for the fact
Garfield and Emma Stone have the best chemistry of any couple in the history of the comic
book genre. Their playful banter, their arguments, their confusion, and their love all feels
authentic This movie is ended by the death of Gwen that makes the audience will be very
emotional and sad.

Summary
Overall, I think this is the best superhero movie since the appearance of The Dark Knight
Rises. The script is well-written and convincing. I am sure the next series will be outstanding
superhero movie. I recommend this movie to anyone who loves Spider-man or other
superhero movies. this is the Spider-Man we’ve been waiting for.
