I have only slightly updated this, most of you will see that I've just review Spiderman 3 Soundtrack, this is the better version of Spiderman Soundtracks.

This is litterally my favourite cd I've ever brought. I'm not all for buying soundtrack's to movies, I think that there's always one song you like but the other's pale in comparison. This is not the case.

After seeing Spiderman 2 at the cinema I went to HMV and bought this cd, when I was on the way home I was a little bit worried, I've just spent £8.00 on a cd that I don't know is any good.

This soundtrack has taken the best song off every album about at that time and put them on this soundtrack.

Here's the what I think of the songs:

Dashboard Confessional- Vindicated- This is my favourite track of the whole album, it's a great opener to this album and sets the bar high for the rest of the songs. None of the songs on the album in my eyes compare to this song sung by Cashboard Confessional, it's slow but rocky at the same time and the lyrics are lush. 9/10

Ordinary- Train- This song is also brilliant, The lyrics in this are gorgeous, on lyrics this is much better than Dashboard Confessional's song. It's really compliments the film. It's a lot slower that Vindicated, but the instruments are played brilliantly. 8/10

Hoobastank- Did You- This is a lovely song from the fantastic Hoobastank, but it just doesn't really compare to the two above, plus Hoobastank have done so much better. "The Reason" by them, is one of my favourite songs. Still it's a nice song to listen to. 6/10

Hold On- Jet is a classic track, again it's not as good as the one's above but still a brilliant class track. Worth listening to. 6/10

Gifts & Curses- Yellowcard- This is a fantastic track, typical Yellowcard though. From the instruments at the start it just pulls you in, and the fact that the lead singer isn't as loud as the ones before, he actually sings the songs, not shouts it. I love this track. Pure brilliance. 8/10

Woman- Maroon 5- I love Maroon 5 but boy is this song outta place, it just doesn't go with the rest of the album. I played their album Song's about jane over and over but this song, when i play this album I tend to skip. 4/10

This Photograph Is Proof- Taking Back Sunday- Great track, but it is slightly forgettable but it's still worth listening to. 7/10

Give It Up- Midtown- Good song but like Taking Back Sunday, it's forgettable, I do tend to skip this track when I play this album. 6/10

Lucky You- Lostprophets- Lostprophets rock but theis is one of there worst songs, which is saying something. It doesn't have the same oomph that the rest of the album has, it's catchy though. You'll be singing it for days. 7/10

This I'm afraid is where I tend to stop with the cd, it's a fantastic album up until this point. The songs are drab compared to the rest of the album. Here's what rating I give them though:

Who I Am - Smile Empty Soul - 7/10
The Night That The Lights Went Out In NYC - The Ataris 5/10
Meant To Live - Switchfoot 8/10
We Are - Ana Johnsson 6/10
Someone To Die For - Jimmy Gnekko Featuring Brian May 4/10
Spidey Suite - Danny Elfman 3/10
Doc Ock Suite - Danny Elfman 3/10
She Spider - Mew 3/10

Meant to live by Switchfoot is a fantastic song but I do tend to stop at track 10 and go back to the start. I propbably haven't played the final four since I first got it.

If you want a better review on a certain song, just tell me and I'll tell you what I think of them.

This album is fantastic, it's got a lot of songs on it and it appeals to my genre of music. I really like it and will recommend it to anyone.

Hope this helped.

Love this soundtrack too, and you reviewed it well; I went to see Dashboard Confessional in concert because I loved "Vindicated" so much...Chris x

Nice review, but not having seen the film or heard of some of the bands, I'd like to know a bit more about how the songs sound.
