You can imagine my lack of excitement walking into “The Other Woman.” None of the marketing suggested anything other than yet another generic, revenge chick-flick where a scorned group of women go after an unfaithful and dishonest male antagonist. Well, I have two words for you: Leslie Mann. She’s the film’s saving grace, and makes “The Other Woman” a lot more tolerable than it would have been otherwise. Oh, and watching Jaime Lannister shit himself is another plus.

Sam Raimi’s “Spider-Man 2″ is one of my all-time favorite movies. I watched it in theaters a total of 10 times, and still consider it one of the greatest comic book movies ever made. Spider-Man is hands down my favorite superhero, and the only reason I ever got into in comics in the first place. I didn’t exactly mind the idea of a reboot; in fact it was the only way for me to move on from the traumatic “Spider-Man 3.” I ended up really enjoying “The Amazing Spider-Man” and couldn’t wait to see where the series would go next. While the sequel is a bit of a mixed bag overall, it’s still a highly enjoyable piece of summer entertainment, and includes a final half hour that packs a big emotional wallop. It won’t replace Raimi’s “Spider-Man 2″ as the best Spidey flick yet, but it’s far from being the next “Spider-Man 3.” Director Marc Webb may have bitten off a bit more than he can chew, but he’s delivered a very solid – if not amazing – Spidey adventure.
