Tyler Perry as Alex Cross |
The character of psychologist/detective Alex Cross marks a new
chapter in the acting career of Tyler Perry. This is his first action-hero role
and he hits a homer out of the park.
His nay-sayers and those who think he can
only pull of Madea will be shocked into silence on this one. While Perry
delivers big time, so does his on screen nemeses

Matthew Fox as Picasso |
Matthew Fox as psycho killer
Picasso. His performance is ice-chillingly real and cold. Veteran Action
director Rob Cohen super delivers the suspense, drama, action and emotional
intensity in this offering. Action fans will love it!
****Excellent! (Ride In Front 1st Class!)
