I gotta say LW, I was skeptical about ASM2 as well, but it held its own. Solid 7.5-8/10 for me. Everything about it was true to the comics, Andrew Garfield was an incredible Spider-Man, Dane DeHaan nailed the Harry Osborne role, the action was spot-on. That being said, they did suffer from Spider-Man 3 Syndrome a bit; the first 40 minutes introduced so much into the mix that I got lost. And they continued with the "too much" thing through out the story (for Christ's sake, they kept interrupting the final fight with Electro to talk about planes), but overall it served its purpose to set things in motion for the Sinister Six plotline that will be running through the series now.
