The Amazing Spider-Man 2 should be added to the list because everything in the film is mixed equally and brilliantly to make the film an experience versus a chore to watch. It could immediately be added to the list of other near perfect films, which is not a long list but it does contain some classics Terminator 2: Judgement Day, and The Searchers are just two of the films on this very short list, and both are damned near perfect for different reasons. To be brutally honest, this film was as near perfect as any that this film-lover has seen. Leaving the gaming allusions behind, for a moment, it should be pointed out that it is not often that after watching the latest blockbuster from Hollywood that one can truthfully write “I laughed and I cried,” and truly mean it. There can be no denying that while watching The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in the IMAX 3D theatre it felt as though we were all sitting in the middle of the most awesome video game ever.

The same year that Mirror’s Edge was released in a Microsoft Windows version.

When Jamie Foxx’s character becomes the new super villain Electro, his appearance and the way that the villain recharges his powers, are virtually the same as the protagonist’s in the video game Infamous, the Sucker Punch Productions/Sony Computer Entertainment developed game released in 2009. The second in the film franchise also offered up another video game comparison, that cannot be coincidental. The sequel offers even more of this first person coverage of the superhero’s day to day web-slinging. Watching the first film felt a little like the audience were being treated to a first person’s view of slinging webs and flying through the air after criminals, or Gwen Stacy. For those who have not played the game, it was the “first” first-person action/adventure platforming game and it was developed by EA Digital Illusions CE.

Speaking to another “Spidey” fan two weeks prior to this advanced screening, we both agreed that the first of the Spider-Man remakes felt as though the filmmakers had taken a leaf out of the video game Mirror’s Edge. Watching The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was like being in the middle of one the world’s most awesome video games.
