Trivia:
The shot of the severed arm still holding the chainsaw in the operating room scene is a tribute to Sam Raimi's Evil Dead II (1987).See more »
Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: In the burning building scene, after Peter misses the jump and he's hanging over the fire, he throws the little girl onto the ledge to save her. A dummy is obviously used because of how hard she was slammed against the floor and how she doesn't react to the slam.See more »
Quotes:
[first lines]
Peter Parker:[narrating] She looks at me everyday. Mary Jane Watson. Oh boy! If she only knew how I felt about her. But she can never know. I made a choice once to live a life of responsibility. A life she can never be a part of. Who am I? I'm Spider-Man, given a job to do. And I'm Peter Parker, and I too have a job.

Normally sequels are hugely disappointing in comparison to the original film. So it's hard to believe that they could even come close to topping this movies original, alas they do!
Picking up where the first movie starts off and introducing several new comic book regulars, we bypass the history establishing story of the original and head straight into what life is like for Peter Parker being a college student, Spiderman, and trying to hold down a job.
This time Spidey must face the likes of Doc Ock, portrayed by Alfred Molina (he's come a long way since Indiana Jones cameos) excellently. Once again they couldn't have picked a better actor to portray the villain Spiderman has to face.
Spiderman must take out Doc, save the city, save the girl, and still get good grades.
The action sequences once again are entrancing and the story is well written. Kudos once again to the actors involved and Sam Raimi on creating another hit. Looking very much forward to Spiderman 3. Another hit I'm sure if 1 & 2 are any indications.
