What the Critics say | ||
| Cape Argus / The Star Theresa Smith  Clichéd plotline and uninspired acting make for a boring film | 5 |  |
| Die Burger Rozanne Els | 10 |  |
| Cape Times Todd McCarthy It's all rather shaky. | 5 | |
| Box Office Pete Hammond Perry is like we have never seen him before in an emotional, powerhouse performance that doesn't let up, and the simply-named Alex Cross should be a solid box office achiever that draws in both Perry's loyal fan base and aficionados of the police thriller genre. | 10 | |
| ScreenIt C. Fuchs Had Freeman returned for the role, at least that would have provided some emotional depth when the moments call for it (something Perry doesn't have a prayer of reaching), but even that terrific actor and that incredible voice couldn't have overcome the prolific script and direction issues. | 6 | |

| Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer Tyler Perry and Matthew Fox do their best, but they're trampled by Rob Cohen's frustrating direction and a tasteless, lazily written screenplay. | 3 | |
