Along Came A Spider
by admin on May.03, 2009, under Thriller
When a senator’s daughter is kidnapped from her high-security private school, the kidnapper (nicely played by the underrated Michael Wincott) draws Alex Cross (Morgan Freeman) into the case, knowing that the psychologist-detective’s involvement will bring high-profile publicity. Cross partners with the Secret Service agent (Monica Potter) who botched her assignment, but wait… the movie’s got a rabbit in its hat… and that rabbit has an ace up its sleeve… and director Lee Tamahori (who brought similar intensity to The Edge) handles the sleight-of-hand with slick precision, dispensing just enough information to keep the viewer off guard without resorting to cheap manipulation. Don’t look for much depth of character here, but Along Came a Spider is well served by everyone involved. It’s the movie equivalent of a bestseller you’d impulsively buy at the grocery-store checkout, and on those terms it succeeds.
