Enlightening Video Essay Explores the Genius of Sam Raimi's SPIDER-MAN 2
Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2 is still my favorite Spider-Man movie ever made, and it's even one of my favorite superhero films in general. Everyone is hyped about what Marvel is doing right now and what they will be doing in the future, especially with their new version of Spider-Man. But let's not forget that Raimi made an incredible Spider-Man film! I'm sure it's been awhile since a lot of you have seen it, but maybe it's time to revisit it and be reminded of how amazing it was.
Films&Stuff released a fantastic video essay that explores Spider-Man 2 and explains why they feel it is Marvel at their best. They explain in the video description:
While we indulge ourselves with the recent superhero summer blockbusters, I think it would be good to explore the best film of the genre - Spider-Man 2. Here I explore how Sam Raimi blends comedy, action and drama into a comic book masterpiece.
Everything they point out is spot on, and even though I already had a high appreciation for this movie, this video essay made me appreciate it even more. You've gotta take the time to watch this! Trust me, it's worth it.
