The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

The Amazing Spiderman 2 (2014)

Starring: Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Fox, Dan DeHaan, Paul Giamatti, Colm Feore, Campbell Scott, Sally Field
Director: Marc Webb

Premise:
Peter Parker struggles with life as Spiderman and wanting to be with his girlfriend Gwen Stacy, who he promised not to be into danger. While this is happening, a worker gets electrified in an experimental test and becomes Electro and threatens the cities power. Also a childhood friend, Harry Osbourn, becomes the CEO of OsCorp and his dying. He wants Spiderman's blood to help save him.

My Take:
I wasn't very high on the first movie in the new reboot (or the Spiderman character in general) and the sequel manages to be even more over the top fluff. There isn't a lot of substance here but is a lot style. Maybe many more than myself will enjoy it.

Rating: Warning
