Alex Cross- Quite Satisfying

Shockingly Good

This is one drabby period in my life.

So, its organising files on my hard disks  and watching movies that I have in my library for me.

Tyler Perry as Cross
And I decided to watch some movies before I erased them.

One of them, to my disbelief, Alex Cross turned out to be a better movie than I had anticipated.

Mean Hit man

As usual in police drama and assassination movies, we have the good guys and the bad guys. Matthew Fox who played Picasso, comes across as one mean killing machine hit man while Tyler Perry took on the role of Dr. Alex Cross a psycho-analyst with the city's crime squad. The eye candy was Rachel Nichols  as the unfortunate police-woman, Monica who fell victim to the killer. Carmen Ejogo acted as Maria Cross, Alex's wife who also fell to Picasso's bullet.

Sadly, Alex read the killer's moves wrongly resulting in the death of his wife as well as a fellow police-woman.

Charming police woman
The movie had great plots and sub-plots though the ending was unexpectedly lame to me.

Otherwise it is a film worthy of a watch.

Heard, they are having a sequel for Alex Cross.
