Review of Spider-Man (2002)

By Sam Allis (8) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 08 Feb 2014

Raimi crafted a complicated hero who is a welcome relief from the usual two-dimensional offerings. That said, we could use some moxie in the sequel…

Review of Frailty (2002)

By Sam Allis (8) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 10 Aug 2012

Murder should either be unsparingly real or kitschy like the ''Texas Chainsaw Massacre.'' This is neither…

Review of Edge of Darkness (1943)

By Sam Allis (8) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 28 Jan 2010

The movie’s weaknesses include the overuse of grainy flashbacks of Craven’s daughter as a child, and the conversations he has with her…

Review of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)

Review of City by the Sea (2002)

By Sam Allis (8) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 05 Sep 2002

The movie will be remembered primarily for the huge, emerging talent of James Franco, who plays De Niro's troubled son…

Review of The Salton Sea (2002)

By Sam Allis (8) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 11 Jul 2002

A commercial Hollywood movie without pretensions. If there's no art here, it's still a good yarn - which is nothing to sneeze at these days…

Review of Bad Company (2002)

By Sam Allis (8) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 06 Jun 2002

The major problem with this alleged comic thriller is it is neither funny nor thrilling. Neither the heavies nor the good guys are believable…
