A comprehensive 12-part documentary on the making of "Spider-Man 2," covering everything from pre-production to premiere.
A standard 'making of' documentary for Spider-Man 2, competently assembled but fundamentally a promotional piece. It covers the expected ground — production design, visual effects, cast interviews — without bringing a distinctive directorial voice or particularly revelatory behind-the-scenes access. The 12-part structure gives it breadth but not depth, and as a behind-the-scenes featurette it scores modestly across the board. Cinematography gets a slight bump for the inherently compelling footage of blockbuster filmmaking on a grand scale.
