Review: Alex Cross

Shaved head, Well played Mr. Fox

So lets just cut to the chase. This movie is an action movie. Don't expect it to be monumental because it definitely wasn't but it wasn't terrible. Tyler Perry's acting debut fuels this cool but predictable action film. Let's be honest. Tyler Perry isn't going to win an oscar for his performance but he isn't bad at acting. It's just that, well it's an action movie and there isn't much great of acting going on when an action movie is playing. However, Matthew Fox was superb. I cannot describe in words how good his acting was. Anyone who remembers him from the movie "Vantage Point" or the show "Lost" will see those as setbacks in his career. With the great job he did in this movie he could become a c-list or even b-list actor. The movie itself was very predictable and in a few moments was hard to follow. One thing i noticed about Alex was that he had blood on his shirt in many scenes of the movie. When one of the characters dies, none of the characters show any permanent signs of sadness and his/her death is not confirmed so it took me until the end of the movie to realize he/she was dead. Overall the movie was okay mostly average but Matthew Fox's amazing performance saved it's rating from a 5/10 to a 6/10.

Oh look the only picture where Alex Cross doesn't have blood on his shirt!
