Spiderman 2

Karol and I went to see Spiderman 2 yesterday. We usually go to the matinee, as it’s cheaper. I would rate Spiderman 2 as an excellent movie. Aside from the great special effects, it explores the choices we all make between doing what we want and doing the right thing. Spiderman has to decide, should he continue as Spiderman and help people or should he revert to an everyday person and live a normal life. Toby Maguire gives a very good performance of an individual torn between duty and desire.

It brought to mind the men and women that serve in our Armed Forces. They have chosen duty over desire.

I recommend you see it.
