Factual error: Towards the end of the film, Spiderman takes his web and uses it to connect to the different power conduits that Electro blew open, ties them together, and power the city back up. Electricity uses several different wires, and crossing them would cause things to blow up or short out. What should have happened when Gwen threw the switch was another power failure, instead of the city's power being restored.

9.1/10.While this one does seem crammed with villains it's still solid.It does a decent job with Electro as Jamie Foxx is pretty decent here as is Paul Giamatti as The Rhino.The one that stood out was Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn/The Green Goblin.He's never called that but it's obvious.The suit was pretty good along with the way he gets it.Andrew Garfield still delivers here, seems quite focused as Spider-Man.The main problem, I felt, was Emma Stone.She seemed to be phoning it in as if bored.Gwen is now possessive of Peter like she was in the comics which always bothered me.I felt they shouldn't have done this as we know what happens in these movies with that kind of attitude.Her death scene seemed just like the comics only as least we see her look of sadness whereas in the comic she was unconscious.The sequel may not have been as good as its predecessor it's far from being bad or terrible.

Aunt May: What happened to your face? It's filthy
Peter Parker: It is?
Aunt May: Yeah!
Peter: Oh yeah, I was cleaning, the chimney.
Aunt May: We have no chimney.
Peter Parker: Whaaat?
Trivia: SPOILER: At the end of the clock tower scene, there is an exterior shot, where the time is 1:21. It is in issue #121 of the original Amazing Spider-Man comic from the 1970's where Gwen died due to the Green Goblin.
Question: How did The Green Goblin get captured and sent to Ravencroft after he killed Gwen?
Answer: Peter could have webbed him up and called the police anonymously.

Very likely. However, there was a deleted scene in which Peter, out of anger over Gwen's death, almost beats Harry to death.
Yes. We also see Goblin getting knocked out when all hell breaks loose, and the gears all break apart. Chances are, Peter just webbed him up. (Although, as the other response says, he also got beaten up in a deleted scene.)
