SPIDER-MAN 2 COJO REVIEW 7-18-04
Do you know why the original Spider-Man kicked ass? Because the plot involved a kickass superhero, kicking ass in NYC! But do you know the one thing the first one lacked that this one has that makes it just kick that much more ass???? HAND TO HAND FIGHTING!! That's what we want to see! Spidy's acrobatics around the tops of the skyscrapers while chasing a green masked doof on a hoverboard is OK, but to see him actually exchanging fisticuffs with a freak with metal Matrix esque arms, while bouncing off buildings and trains, crashing through brick walls and falling off rooftops! That's the shizznet!
This movie was also much faster paced (much like X-men 2 compared to X-Men 1) because they didn't have to spend the time establishing the character and how he fits into his world. The only bummer is the bullshit storyline involving Peter Parker loosing his abilities. That was retarded. And their preview into whom the villain for the next installment will be (this whole scene was not only lame, but also proves that sometimes studios will cash in on what worked in their previous films-stupid)
Speaking of cashing in on what works, Mary Jane's wet pokie nipples in part 1 was such a buzz, the studio made sure that buzz didn't fizzle, they got some rain on those breasts again in part 2 right quick, done and done.
Did I mention this movie kicks ass? See it in the theater! You will leave thinking you are still in the shape you were in 10 years ago, wherein you will attempt a kip-up off your futon thus throwing your back out, which seems like a bummer till you tell your boss that it happened at work. When you cash that workers comp check you can thank Spidy!
Just another day in the life of an Art Juggernaut.
