Andrew Garfield has nice hair, Hans Zimmer is a musical genius & hugely elevated by an amazing finale #Spiderman 2

Yes, The Amazing Spider-man 2 looks like a VFX house showreel. But there's real attention to character and emotion here. #Spiderman

In spite of a slightly shaky opening, I really enjoyed The Amazing #Spider-Man 2. Garfield and Stone are fantastic. Wonderful chemistry.

I have some major quibbles with Amazing Spider Man 2, but Andrew Garfield is terrific and the film has a great sense of humor. #SpiderMan

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2, unexpectedly, is a humdinger of a film. Thrilling, funny, touching & intriguing-definitely holds pace throughout.

Really enjoyed The Amazing #SpiderMan 2. Andrew Garfield is fantastic. The closest comic book to screen Spidey so far.

Still reeling at the overwhelming stinkiness of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. It has a few nice shots, but to what end? To shift a few Vaios?

Amazing Spider-man 2. Decent, but it's like the film is on steroids.

Well, I'll say this for Amazing Spider-Man 2. I hated it.

Spider-Man 2. Marc Webber pulls the legs off the re-booted franchise - slowly, painfully and without pity. #Spider-Man #Spider-Man2

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2: Terrible. Not so much a movie as a bunch of scenes, almost none of which are any good.
