Film Preview: The Amazing Spider-Man 2

After a rather underwhelming opening to the re-boot of the Spider-Man franchise with Andrew Garfield taking over the lead role, its time for the all important second edition. Many film franchises have vastly improved from a sequel and gone from strength to strength with the most famous being The Dark Knight but the likes of Captain America have enjoyed similar success with the backstory already dealt with in an early film. Now its time for Spider-Man to go the same way as he locks horns with Electro played by Jamie Foxx who should prove an interesting antagonist.

Spider-Man and Electro

Peter Parker continues to struggle with balancing his life as a high school student and his responsibilities as Spider-Man. When Peter begins to investigate more about his father's past, thanks to the help of his friend Harry Osborn, he begins to realize that the new threats of Electro and the Rhino all have one thing in common: OsCorp.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is released in the UK on 16th April 2014 and the trailer is embedded below:
