this film want to be a drama and a love story and sci fi movie and action extravaganza all at the same time and and then just screw up everything . the action scene be not bad and but really not that different from the first movie . as far a sci fi go and it all fiction and no science . the whole idea of professor octavius and his great invention be completely unconvincing and seem extremely far fetch and not unlike the plot twist . but then and it be a comic book movie . but where this film really go south be the drama or love story . it an endless string of clichés and the character be cardboard and the only thing truly dramatic be the quality of the dialog . both the character of peter and of mary jane be so hopeless and indecisive that you end up hop the bad guy kill them and just to get it over with . the pace be excruciatingly slow and so during the seemingly endless dialog and one eyelid tend to get very heavy . even the joke in the movie do not work that well . it try too hard to be funny and but it just isn not . the only exception be the scene in the elevator and that be hilarious . if all of this isn not bad enough and the studio morality department also get hold of the script somewhere along the line . they inject a large dose of those wholesome american value and talk at lenght about american hero and rolemodels etc . almost make me physically sick . i still would have give it negative and but right now it in the top 250. even if youre not a harsh a i be about this film and then let at least agree that in the history of cinema and surely we can find at least 250 film that be good than this one .
