Shadow of Fear (2004)
Spader is the Best thing about this movie!
I mostly liked this movie for James Spader's terrific performance as an enigmatic and powerful lawyer. Love the kind of intensity and passion he brings to his every role. Matt Davis on the other hand gives a very insipid performance. He is the weakest actor in the entire cast and cld not hold his own before some of the other accomplished actors, specially Spader and Coyote. The girls have hardly anything to do in the movie sadly.
The story is different and manages to keep the viewers engaged, though the end seemed a bit implausible. If only the screen play had been a bit tighter and someone better had been cast in Harrison's role, it wld have worked even better. Still, I wld say the movie is worth the watch for Spader's work
Stargate (1994)
Mindblowing Movie! One of the Best Sci-fiction Ever Seen!
Stargate is one of the BEST Sci-fic movies I have ever seen. Its truly a classic. It is fantastically written, directed and casted. James Spader is beyond terrific as Dr. Daniel Jackson. Kudos to him for such a nuanced performance. But then we have come to expect such fine performances from Spader! Kurt Russel too is very well cast and very good. Their banter with each other makes for an interesting watch. The greatest thing abt this movie is its ability to draw the viewers in, connect with what's being shown and believe in the unbelievable. Overall, a wonderful watch which must be experienced for its scale, fantastic presentation as well as awesome performances by the entire cast, specially by James Spader.
