Morgan Freeman great but hate the twist
29 June 2014
Detective profiler Alex Cross (Morgan Freeman) loses his partner after the perp drives them over a dam. He's been hiding ever since. Senator (Michael Moriarty)'s daughter Megan Rose (Mika Boorem) is kidnapped under secret service agent Jezzie Flannigan (Monica Potter)'s watch. The kidnapper is disguised as teacher Gary Soneji (Michael Wincott). He calls up Cross to get him back into the game. Agent Ollie McArthur (Dylan Baker) is now in charge. Agent Ben Devine (Billy Burke) is also in trouble along with Flannigan. Cross teams up with Flannigan who has known Soneji for the last 2 years. It's a cat and mouse game where Soneji seems to be inspired by the Lindbergh baby kidnapping.

Morgan Freeman reprises his Alex Cross role from 'Kiss the Girls' replacing Ashley Judd with Monica Potter. They form a good team. I like him in this role. He is more cerebral than muscle. It's got good tension. It's on track for a very good thriller. Then the twist comes and the logic goes all to heck. This could have been better. At least we still have Morgan Freeman.
