Well there's a lot going on in this movie and it's obvious they used the web shooter montage, plus the Electro battle to shine light on what his intelligence level is. Sure Gwen provided the solution, but also reminded him. But I understand what you're saying. His intelligence level doesn't satisfy you.The movie needn't spend "20 minutes" showcasing his intelligence to put it across. I just really didn't get the really smart kid/genius vibe from Garfield. I think they did a better job portraying him in the first film in terms of being smart and an outsider and all that. The point is that he is supposed to be a genius - just one with a ****ton of responsibilities who's also a superhero.
And I wouldn't say that TASM2 did a good job with it at all. Gwen provided him the solution to the whole thing with Electro. Also, why is Gwen valedictorian? There's nothing wrong with her being smart, too, but I certainly didn't get valedictorian from Emma Stone's portrayal. I could never buy Emma Stone as someone that smart just based on her acting.
