ALONG CAME A SPIDER (Theatrical Release USA 2001)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.2|5.0 Starsìììì

Along Came a Spider—an Alex Cross story—has an eye-opening view into watching Morgan Freeman form to his character. It may not be one of his best performances, but definitely earns a watch. Good and well-told mystery easily stands as a best mystery story that entertains.
