This movie in many ways is a coming of age story for Peter Parker. In the end, he gives up his duties as Spider-Man, only to return to action when Doctor Octopus is threatening the city. His relationship between Harry and Mary Jane are deteriorating as he keeps disappointing them. Here we see a damaged Peter Parker, still full of guilt with the death of Uncle Ben, he's getting fired all the time and late to school because he's busy protecting New York as Spider-Man. He makes it smaller, more personal, but with big impactful moments.
The common thing among mostly all sequels is that bigger is better, that's not always the case, and that's where director Sam Raimi comes in, he does the opposite. They're very hard to crack open, but every so often we do get a sequel that is better than the original like Empire Strikes Back, The Godfather Part II, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Aliens, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, The Dark Knight, and others.
