God damn that movie was lame. 90% of it just consisted of everyone crying about their shitty life. Then it has that useless subplot about Peter's father which iirc hints at an improved Spider Serum constantly, but in the end only serves to make Peter feel temporarily even more bad than before and its resolve does nothing but revert Peter's mood back to how it was before the subplot started, despite all the hints throughout the movie that the subplot would actually be somewhat important :/
The movie really would have been better off if it was 90 minutes instead of the 142min it turned out. The pacing was outright offensive, with faaaaar too much time between the 3 (Rhino guy, Electro 1, Electro 2+Green Goblin) fight scenes. At least they stayed pretty true to how Gwen Stacy died in the comics, not that I cared for her in the first place. MJ>Gwen Stacy and to top it off she wasn't even the hottest female in the movie. That title belongs to
Felicity Jones, aka Felicia Hardy (Harry Osbourne's assistent) aka Black Cat (which we'll undobtedly see as such in Amazing Spiderman 3).
All in all disappointing movie, 2/5 imo
EDIT: kljesta64 makes a point I almost forgot to make: Everyone struggling also feels VERY similar to the original Spider-Man 2 movie, the plot in general does. Through parts of the movie it felt like they just took Spider-Man 2, replaced Doc-Oc with Electro, MJ with Gwen, Aunt May with a younger, but destroyed by Crystal Meth version of herself and made Harry Osborn even more of a little bitch :/
