Spider-Man 2 (2004)
Movie
Released
The first film makes Peter a hero; the second makes heroism collide with rent, work and the people tired of his excuses. Sam Raimi turns that exhaustion into comedy and action rather than leaving it as background misery. Doctor Octopus supplies both a wounded mirror and beautifully legible physical danger. Peter's wish for an ordinary life makes the spectacular sequences matter more than another origin could.
