Alone in the Dark (2005) |
"For as busy as this movie is, you'd think it would have more going on. Instead, it's just a big, chewy wad of badness." |

Along Came a Spider (2001) |
"The plot twists come in the final 30 minutes, and while they are entertaining, they're also ludicrous. One begins to wish the movie had stuck with its original plan of just being a mediocre cop thriller, rather than changing into something quasi-clever." |

Along Came Polly (2004) |
"The movie has a breezy, negligible feeling to it. It earns quite a few solid laughs, and while it's not worthy of tremendous success, it warrants a look." |
