After reading both of the reviews for Spider-Man 2 it was interesting to see how much detail people really do pay attention to in a movie. Both Gilchrist and Ebert agree and disagree about things throughout the movie. Many options come to play when reviewing a movie, and a lot of times it comes down to personal preference as to whether someone is going to like it or not.
One thing that they both tie their reviews into is how closely depicted Spider-Man 2 is to the original spider man what was created by Stan Lee. Todd Gilchrist compared Spider-Man 2 to the first Spider-Man movie that came out. According to him, the first Spider-Man was depicted more the way that Stan Lee created him. Another thing that Gilchrist and Ebert agree on is how well the visual effects are. In the movie Spider-Man swings from building to building with such realism, even though everyone knows this is impossible. Another thing they talk about is the tentacles that look so real on Doc Ock.
The biggest and most important thing that Gilchrist and Ebert disagree on are the movie in general. Gilchrist says that he would not recommend the movie to anyone that was not into comic books, or that did not already enjoy the adventures of Spider-Man. However, Ebert said that the overall movie was great, and that he would recommend it to anyone. Other things that they disagree on are how confusing the plot is, and how well the story moves. Ebert says that the story flows smoothly and sets up for a good movie. Gilchrist says that the plot is confusing, and hard to follow.
