Alex Cross Review.

Watched Alex Cross starring Tyler Perry and Matthew Fox. I thought the movie was a decent film, but it just very dull. The main reason the film did not work at all was the horrible and tasteless, lazily written script and dialogue. The script and dialogue had some pretty cheesy lines; it seemed very rushed and forcedly written. The film was strangely edited at times and poor camera work on
multiple scenes. The only thing I really enjoyed from the film was two magnificent performances by Tyler Perry and Matthew Fox. Matthew Fox was incredibly magnificent as a psychopathic killer. Fox performance was sick, deranged, and absolutely outstanding. This film is just worth seeing for Matthew Fox's amazing transformation. Tyler Perry is a powerful screen presence with big shoes to fill considering that Morgan Freeman played the part first. Tyler Perry gave the role such a vulnerable and intensity that he hold his own in this movie. The action sequences in the film were very standard and well done with a frustrating direction by Rob Cohen. The film was still slick, fast-paced and very entertaining to watch. I will give it a C-.
