The Amazing Spider-Man 2
When you separate The Amazing Spider-Man 2
from all the anticipation and rumor-mongering about just how many
super-powered baddies will make an appearance in the sequel, the film is
actually a pretty straightforward coming of (young adult) age story.
Well, under fantastical circumstances, anyway

Summary :
We've always known that Spider-Man's most
important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the
ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary
responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in "The Amazing Spider-Man 2," Peter
Parker finds that his greatest battle is about to begin.
It's great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there's
no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the
hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man
comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers
from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence
of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful
than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns,
Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common:
Oscorp.
