I thought that this was better than the last movie with 'Doc Oc' but not as good as the first.

Lots of action and some really cool jazz music, though sadly the jazz music came when Peter was supposed to be ultra cool. Sorry...those scenes didn't really work for me.

What bugs me the most about these movies is just how often Spider-man's face is revealed and how many people come to know who he really is. What's the point of having a secret identity if it's constantly being revealed?! It makes for a better movie if you can see the stars' faces, but it kinda doesn't work for comic book heroes.

I liked seeing Gwen. She's still my favorite Parker girlfriend, but I suppose it's 'cause that's who I grew up reading about.

All the relationship drama was boring and Harry was just one fickle change after the other.

Glad I finally saw it, but it's not exactly super memorable.
