With a TASM2 media screening taking place, and reactions and reviews allegedly being posted today, I figured it would be a good idea to have a thread in place dedicated SOLELY to the posting of quotes/links/excerpts from media reviews, twitter reactions, etc.

Once again, this thread is for reviews/reactions ONLY, no discussion, so everyone can have one convenient place to check out all the TASM2 reactions that will be released in the hours/days/weeks to come that may get lost in the general discussion

(p.s. this is the 1st thread I've ever made, so if someone has any suggestions to improve/modify it (better title?), or thinks they can make a better thread with the same purpose, go for it :up: maybe PM me thread suggestions to avoid initiating a discussion in here, thanks!)

Cheers!

Amazing #spiderman 2 was exactly that. Improved on the first movie in every way.

The Amazing #SpiderMan 2 truly "Amazing". Will do for Spidey what Skyfall did for Bond. @SonyPicturesUK pic.twitter.com/czTIpJWOAJ

Booooo to no after-credit sequence in The Amazing Spider-man 2 #spiderman

@craigstevens 48s
Really enjoyed The Amazing #SpiderMan 2. Andrew Garfield is fantastic. The closest comic book to screen Spidey so far.

@AnIndianSmile 50s
I will write up my review on the movie as I head back home on the train. LOST FOR WORDS. Best movie of the year in my opinion #TASM2

@DapperDan 3m
It's scary how good Garfield is in the role. This is the Peter Parker/Spidey I remember as a kid and it's great to see him on the big screen

@DapperDan 6m
Really enjoyed Amazing Spider-Man 2. But make no mistake the real star of the show is Peter Parker. Spidey definitely plays second fiddle

@FilmDivider
Can tell you now that we've seen and enjoyed The Amazing Spider-Man 2. More details later on http://www.filmdivider.com but... any questions?

@FilmDivider 3m
@bexlewis361 I would expect MJ in part 3, but not necessarily Shailene.

Peter Parker comes of age through hell and high drama. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is ELECTRIFYING! ★★★★★ #spiderman @The_Upcoming

@Seamus__D 3m
Amazing #SpiderMan 2 post-credit scene cut from preview? But was that Stark tower behind the Osborn building? Or just wishful thinking?

@hollyhewlett 4m
The Amazing #SpiderMan 2 is so funny, so moving, and the chemistry between Peter and Gwen is incredible. Go see it!

@DapperDan 4m
The epic ambition alone should be strongly saluted. For everything that's going on, & there's a lot, it never feels flabby or over egged

@olilyttelton 11m
FYI, there's no post-credits tag on ASM2, hence my supervillain alter ego, Resentfully Sat Through Ten Minutes Of Credits Man.

@olilyttelton 19m
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2: Terrible. Not so much a movie as a bunch of scenes, almost none of which are any good.

@dmseto 44s
Amazing #Spiderman 2 is amazing. A couple of things annoyed the Spider-Man nerd in me but I loved it. Loved what they did with Harry Osborn

@ShowbizSimon
#Spiderman gets the web seal of approval. Ambitious, impressive and hugely exciting. He's winning when he swinging!

@dmseto 1m
Amazing #SpiderMan 2 also doesn't go the way of Spider-Man 3 (IMO) & don't stay for any after credits scenes - there aren't any

@EarthPrimeWkly 52s
Reactions from the 1st screening of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 are surfacing on Twitter & so far they're looking pretty damn good! #SpiderMan

Just watched the new #SpiderMan and it was amazing!

@jpascoe 23s
Really loved The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Excellent film. More believable this time. As he's moved to Google from Bing. #spiderman

@PaulThomasHeath 1m
The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Great performances from the main cast. Some great set pieces and some tender moments too. Me like it.

@PopCultureHound 31s
Just finished watching Amazing #SpiderMan 2. One thing I will say is you really get a sense of what it's like web-slinging through New York!

@JamesThomas_87 52s
Seeing far more negative reviews for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 than positive ones.

@grahamkw 58s
Am I allowed to say I didn't like #spiderman 2 very much? #greengoblinsnoselookssilly

@JMPERRYESQ 42s
#SpiderMan amazing is the operative word! A cinema treat.@AndrewRGar is such an incredible actor! Go watch UK

@Cat89 1m
Just saw a preview of The Amazing Spider-Man 2... Great film, especially in 3D! ��

@jameskleinmann 1m
Real emotional intensity from #AndrewGarfield, thrilling 3D web-slinging action, an awesome soundtrack & a sense of humour too #SpiderMan 2

@emmdib 2m
Amazing Spider-Man 2 is tonally all over the place and bungles some key beats, but it's hard to dislike a movie so goofily open-hearted.

@nigelfloyd 10m
@mark_salisbury Trust me, Spider-Man 2 was boring, lifeless, poorly acted and short on spectacle. Unearned pay-off(s) too. #Spider-Man2

@dcumoviepage 1m
For a man what love the first film, this is BIG RT @denofgeek The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is better than The Amazing Spider-Man.

@SarahRapp 1m
I have some major quibbles with Amazing Spider Man 2, but Andrew Garfield is terrific and the film has a great sense of humor. #SpiderMan

@montimer 1m
In spite of a slightly shaky opening, I really enjoyed The Amazing #Spider-Man 2. Garfield and Stone are fantastic. Wonderful chemistry.

@TheMichaelMoran 2m
New #spiderman movie has some amazing scenes. The two stars are adorable. But boy is it long. Little trim might have made it perfect.

@DailySuperHero 1m
Mixed reviews to the first screening for 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' so far. Lots of love but lots of hate and 'mehs' too.

@nigelfloyd 1m
"@HelenLOHara: My main takeaway from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is that Emma Stone has stunningly great coats for a recent high school grad."

@TheGlassCase 3m
The early reaction to Amazing Spider-Man 2 is like John Cena trading punches with another face in WWE. 'Yeah!' 'Boo!' 'Yeah!' 'Boo!'

@ErikDavis 4m
Early word on THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 out of the UK is all over the map. Some love it, some hate it. So basically like every other movie

@Tweety_Tony 39s
Andrew Garfield has nice hair, Hans Zimmer is a musical genius & hugely elevated by an amazing finale #Spiderman 2

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 really is a Godsend for Sony. It establishes a huge world, full of interesting characters who can easily be brought back in any of the other scheduled films, while working effectively as a standalone too... It’s a touch long, although this is understandable with everything they were trying to achieve and is ultimately something you have to come to expect in a modern blockbuster. When it is good though, it is exhilarating, thrilling and a joy to behold. Don’t say it too loudly, but it would seem that the Marvel Cinematic Universe really might have competition.

The Amazing Spider-man 2 has genuine emotional intensity, alongside vibrant web-slinging action and a tremendous cast, delivering a fun and feisty Marvel escapade.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 finds itself both looking forward and looking back. Padded out to an unnecessary 141 minutes maybe – just maybe – the next film will provide the payoff anticipated, but not quite delivered, here.

"Marc Webb’s second instalment of the Amazing Spider-Man franchise is the greatest reincarnation of a comic hero on screen in cinematic history. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will be released in the UK on April 18th and in the US on May 2nd and this is a Spider-Man chapter encompassing the greatest Spidey adventure yet – no one will want to miss this."
 
No discussing the movie, please. This is only for posting reviews.
