The
Amazing Spider-Man 2 has an uncommon emotional warmth,
but it muffs the CGI spectacle designed to suck up bucks at the
worldwide omniplex. Kurt Loder says that’s not the way superhero
blockbusters are supposed to work. Andrew Garfield returns as Peter
Parker, the nice guy with a sideline in superheroics. He and his
love interest, Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone again), are just graduating
from high school, and Peter is rethinking the promise he made to
Gwen’s late father to stay away from his daughter so as not to draw
her into his dangerous superhero doings. Garfield and Stone, who’ve
been a real-life item for a couple of years now, bring a nice
romantic rhythm to their characters’ relationship, Stone dispensing
wry quippage and Garfield aw-shucksing in return. It would seem
difficult not to like these two.
