  1. Here's the kind of movie thriller that can make you scream (in annoyance) and bite your nails (to pass the time) and sit on the edge of your seat (ready to bolt the theatre).
  2. A movie that leaves you wondering what the fuss was all about when its end credits appear; it's a mish-mash of a dozen other, better films ground up and watered down--Seven, Silence of the Lambs, and Manhunter, to name a few of the usual suspects.

    Misguided attempts at political correctness make this serial-killer movie stupid instead of just dull.

  1. The plot plays out well, and Kiss the Girls has some thrills for sure, but all through the movie, I couldn't help thinking how good it could've been with Denzel as Cross. Full Review »
  2. this film may be a bit old but it was still good, the actors were brilliant but that is expected by Morgan Freemon. the plot is clever but you can tell what is coming in the film (well if you have a brain) and this does sort of wreck the film this is why more score is not higher. i thought it was a developed film with good actors and good plot Full Review »

    Morgan Freeman shines as Alex Cross in this adaptation of a James Patterson's thriller novel. Ashley Judd is good as 2nd character..movie was too long but plotline kept it going. Full Review »
