Packing its nearly three-hour running time with more villains and more plot twists, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is an electrifying superhero film that balances emotive drama with explosive action.
This highly-anticipated follow-up to the 2012 reboot blockbuster resists getting caught in a web of sequel self-destruction by keeping relationships strong and the plot intriguing, particularly as the troubled romance between Peter and Gwen (played by real-life couple Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone) develops.
Stars: 5/5
