Narrative
A TV series adaptation of James Patterson’s novels about the complicated and brilliant detective Alex Cross
Hodge is the third actor to portray Cross, following Morgan Freeman, who first played him on screen in the 1997 film Kiss the Girls and again in the 2001 sequel Along Came a Spider; and Tyler Perry as the title character in 2012’s Alex Cross, which was a box office flop and led Lionsgate to cancel the planned sequel Double Cross. I just finished watching all eight episodes of Cross and I have to say that I absolutely loved it.
Aldis Hodge gives a standout performance as Alex Cross here
I’ve been looking forward to seeing it since I first heard about it, so I had pretty high expectations. Well, this show not only met those expectations, it exceeded them in every way.
That movie was garbage, this series is amazing
There was an Alex Cross movie that came out in 2012 with Tyler Perry that was terrible. Please don’t let that stop you from watching this because they are different in every way.
A new season of “Silo” is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month
Another great adaptation for Amazon Prime, they have done an incredible job with their TV series adaptations (Reacher, Fallout, Lord of the Rings, Jack Ryan, The Boys, Bosch, The Wheel of Time, Daisy Jones and the Six, Good Omens, etc., etc.). Amazon has so much confidence in this show that they have already renewed it for another season before the first episode aired.
