- Dragan Antulov @ Draxblog VI
- [New – 4/11] | Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Cafe Texan
- Excerpt: …one simply could not have chosen a worse way to attempt a franchise with such a lackluster film, filled with moments of unintended humor and some poor choices.
- Kevin Carr @ 7M Pictures
- Excerpt: If you’ve seen any number of Tyler Perry’s Madea movies, you probably don’t think he could sink lower in his career. But he manages to do that in “Alex Cross.”
- Bill Clark @ FromTheBalcony.com
- Mark Dujsik @ Mark Reviews Movies
- Excerpt: For a relatively simple story, Alex Cross makes a multitude of bad decisions.
- Candice Frederick @ Reel Talk
- Excerpt: Who would have thought that the funniest, most entertaining film Tyler Perry would ever be in would be one where he’s not dressed in drag as a mouthy grandma?
- Cynthia Fuchs @ PopMatters
- Kimberly Gadette @ doddle
- Excerpt: While Tyler Perry slips into Madea’s wigs and plus-size dresses just fine, his attempt to squeeze into the guise of astute psychologist/detective Cross strains at both the seams as well as the credibility.

- Dan Lybarger @ Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
- Excerpt: Imagine Bob Uecker pinch-hitting for Stan Musial, and you get an idea what it’s like to see hyphenate Tyler Perry step into Morgan Freeman’s shoes.
- Peter Martin @ Twitch
- Excerpt: If Alex Cross had embraced its more pop-corny aspects, it might be passable as multiplex entertainment, but, as it is, it’s as annoying and predictable as Detective Dr. Cross’s misguided — and disastrous — attempt to psycho-analyze an insane killer with a high-powered rifle.
- Brent McKnight @ Beyond Hollywood
- Excerpt: “Alex Cross” is the kind of movie that could have used a sniper rifle, but chooses a handheld rocket launcher instead.
- Jason Pirodsky @ Expats.cz
- Excerpt: This is certainly a watchable film, if for many of the wrong reasons. Otherwise, it’s a real turkey – and one of the worst films of the year.
- Tiago Ramos @ Split Screen [Portuguese]

- Tom Santilli @ Examiner.com
- Excerpt: (Director) Rob Cohen makes Ed Wood look like Rain Man.
- Amir Siregar @ Flick Magazine [Indonesian]
- Frank Swietek @ One Guy’s Opinion
- Excerpt: An ugly, imbecilic buddy-cop action picture that makes little sense and offers few thrills.
