Such questions are never answered in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Is it all right for him to beat the stuffing out of ordinary criminals considering how much stronger he is? To steal information from a police officer's laptop or bug wireless towers to spy on citizens? At what point does Spider-Man stop fighting for the greater good and start becoming a menace in his own right? But I find it hard to accept his morally challenged choices. The way he insults his enemies while knocking their heads together, and makes wry observations while swinging through the city, have always made me laugh. Peter Parker is a grounded guy despite his extraordinary powers, and his innate relatability makes him likable. The idea of forgiveness is endemic to what The Amazing-Spider 2 is. Emotions are what cause us to waver in our beliefs, to brush aside a questionable act from a loved one or to put blinders on when the truth overwhelms us.
