Director Rob Cohen fails to jump start a new franchise based on the hero of James Patterson's novels. A detective finds himself at crossroads when a vicious killer tests his limits personally and professionally. Based on the first "Alex Cross" novel, Cohen and company lack vision and skill to bring something new to the already exploited genre. The casting of Tyler Perry might seem inspired but he seems bland in the lead as does the rest of the cast which includes Edward Burns, Matthew Fox, Rachel Nichols, Jean Reno and Cicely Tyson. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
