Watched Spider-Man 2 (2004) by an author from letterboxd.com
Peter Parker is going through a major identity crisis. Burned out from being Spider-Man, he decides to shelve his superhero alter ego, which leaves the city suffering in the wake of carnage left by the evil Doc Ock. In the meantime, Parker still can't act on his feelings for Mary Jane Watson, a girl he's loved since childhood.

I’ve always thought this was a good superhero movie and after 30+ MCU movies I think it compares very favourably! Molina’s Doc Ock is absolute comic book villain perfection, right down to the bowl cut.

Is it weird, though, that the thing that stood out most to me was Kirsten Dunst’s “wet t-shirt” scene? Seems absolutely outrageous by recent standards!

★★★½
