Based upon James Patterson's best-seller.
A smooth, egomaniacal serial killer who fancies himself a connoisseur of extraordinary women holds his victims captive in an underground lair, and only murders them when they break his rules.
However, he makes two crucial mistakes: first, when he nabs the violin-playing niece (Gina Ravera) of a famed, exceptional Washington D.C. forensic psychologist (Morgan Freeman) who is determined to find and save her. Second, when another of his intended victims (Ashley Judd) manages to escape from him - and becomes just as determined to save the other girls.
Although in some ways a standard-issue Hollywood-made Cop Vs. Killer Movie, it is professionally handled, well-acted (especially by Freeman and Judd) and watchable throughout, so that it ends up a little above average. It does feature an important plot twist I haven't seen in any other movie like this.
A couple of quibbles, though:
1) The killer's identity may be too easy for some to guess. 2) Considering the way Alex Cross (Freeman) ultimately ID's the sicko, you'd think SOMEBODY else would have been sharp enough to notice this evidence.
Still, I considered it time well spent. Of course, I'll watch anything Morgan Freeman is in; the man is just phenomenal, carrying the picture in his usually quiet, authoritative manner.
7/10
