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.

3/5
The criminal pursuit soon outweighs the thorny questions, but they give the show some necessary gravity. Go to Full Review

'Cross' is three-dimensional, spiky and introspective, with a streak of genuine creepiness shooting through the murky waters of DC crime. Go to Full Review
Kelly Lawler USA Today 11/15/2024
2/4
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. Go to Full Review
Paula Vázquez Prieto La Nación (Argentina) Jan 7
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] Go to Full Review

Not the "Alex Cross" from the Patterson books, but a good one just the same. Go to Full Review

5/10
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. Go to Full Review

Reese L. @RL1020 Sep 28 Great show, Aldis Hodge really stands out with his performance. I was hooked on every scene. What I love most though is his relationship with Sampson. See more Andre K Sep 4 Good adaptation of Alex Cross based on the books but tell a new story, epic characters welldone. See more Augusto P Aug 5 The average audience reaction of 60% is completely fair! It's a well-made show with some interesting elements, but it's not a good one.The main drawbacks are the big number of scenes where nothing happens other than small talk, and romantic dates. And the ending is worthy of a romantic comedy with absolutely nothing going on and somewhat childish. See more Jun 22 This show keeps getting worse by each episode. Most of the story line doesn’t make sense. See more Carol B Apr 12 This is a great show. Keeps you on the edge of your seat. Aldis Hodge is absolutely phenomenal in this role. A must watch. See more Thomas O Mar 26 I was about halfway through the Cross Book Series and soo excited to see this movie Hodge is a great actor thought he was perfect for the role loved him in Leverage. Then I watched it and it was so disappointing that I almost stopped reading the books. This came out in 2024 but you would think the Screen play was from the hay day of the defund the Police in 2021. Which was NOT in any of the books. The flashback to the dead wife over and over was dumb and not in the books. The screen was so dark you could barely see in 90% of the scenes what a disappointment See more Read all reviews
