Critics Consensus

While the cast is outstanding and the special effects are top-notch, the latest installment of the Spidey saga suffers from an unfocused narrative and an overabundance of characters.

It's fun. It's still 142 minutes long, which it doesn't need to be.

Over-stuffed with plot and consequently struggles to invest the audience in any of it, since there's so much to get through and so many future films and spinoffs to set up.

'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' will certainly make a bazillion dollars, but after you sit through it - all 142 minutes of it - it's very hard to work up a compelling reason that it needed to exist, aside from the aforementioned bazillion dollars.

This movie doesn't deserve the strong performances of the two leads: Garfield and Stone. The villains were comically (no pun intended) bad.

Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone deserved better. This movie is such a mess.

3/5

An emotional ending and spectacular visual effects don't fully save a film weighed down by shoehorned storylines, campy villains, and desperate franchise building.

Andrew Garfield is Spiderman, the movie sadly doesn’t always back up his acting. But his acting, along side Sally Field and Emma Stone backs up the rest of the plot and any issues the film presents.
