Alex Cross


A police psychologist, 'Alex Cross', is on the hunt for a sadistic killer.

Based on a book from successful author James Patterson this is a pretty awful film. The characters come across as cartoonish stereotypes, one scene in particular of a stand-off in a German company is lamentably ridiculous at times.

The sadistic elements are mostly implied rather than shown directly and prove sickening nonetheless and the film fails to deliver as a thriller.

On the plus side, Matthew Fox is effectively creepy.

Not recommended.
