What to Know

Critics Consensus

Cross' case for itself isn't closed just yet, but the commanding Aldis Hodge makes for the most arresting embodiment of James Patterson's literary creation yet.

Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) The criminal pursuit soon outweighs the thorny questions, but they give the show some necessary gravity. Rated: 3/5 Nov 22, 2024 Full Review Sherin Nicole RogerEbert.com 'Cross' is three-dimensional, spiky and introspective, with a streak of genuine creepiness shooting through the murky waters of DC crime. Nov 16, 2024 Full Review Kelly Lawler USA Today This version of "Cross," however, seems like all the worst stereotypes about the genre mashed up into a slow, overly long season of television. It's like a betrayal. Or maybe a double cross. Rated: 2/4 Nov 15, 2024 Full Review Paula Vázquez Prieto La Nación (Argentina) A bit of the old CSI- style procedural and a patina of sordidness and social criticism that outlines a tight, effective, and quite addictive story. [Full review in Spanish] Jan 7, 2025 Full Review Jackie K. Cooper jackiekcooper.com Not the "Alex Cross" from the Patterson books, but a good one just the same. Rated: 6/10 Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Callie Hanna FandomWire It wants to be a serious story with real themes and real social commentary and you can't do that while engaging in blind hero worship of a police officer. Rated: 5/10 Nov 29, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

John K Boo!! Hiss!! Lame!! This one is DOA!! Alex Cross is NOT THIS!! I have read ALL the books and enjoy the gripping, twisting, turning story that is Alex Cross. This is a REST STOP on the road to nowhere!! A snoozer!! An absolute waste of film!! Goodbye poor Alex!! This is Cross burned on re-entry!! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/02/25 Full Review Michael M I have read the books and watched the movies. This by far is the worst dipiction of a great story. Change the name of this series and no one would know it was Alex Cross. Show acting is mediocre at best. Hopefully they cancel after season 1. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/26/25 Full Review Gareth v Aldis Hodge is fantastic as Cross, but the serial killer storyline is a tad absurd which really let's this show down. If they kept it more simple the show could of been a top shelf crime thriller. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/25 Full Review Steve C Some of the scenes/plots are a bit predictable, but overall pretty entertaining. Perhaps too much story line in Cross' personal life . Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/17/25 Full Review Brian M Crammed way too many storylines into one season that it was hard to keep with who was who and which plot line they were connected to. Very disturbing content as well. I have seen serial killer shows and movies before but the things that happened in this show made my stomach turn. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/25 Full Review Steven R It fell short. I was so into this show, that I binged in one day (which I rarely do). They built up so much good tension between Cross and the villain, but then left it too early. The last episode was not worthy of the first 5 episodes. They did tie a nice bow on it at the very end. Even still, I’ll wait for reviews from Season 2 before I commit any time to it. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/25 Full Review Read all reviews
