I set the series to auto-record, but was so put off by the reviews that I deleted it all without even watching it.<br /><br />Idris Elba has just been announced as taking the film role of Alex Cross. The first one or two Cross books were not too bad, written before Patterson went into the Deep Dive of Mediocrity. However, I thought they had filmed two with Morgan Freeman? (I have not seen them.) I don't mind seeing Idris Elba again, as he's very easy on the eye, but I am dithering a bit about the Alex Cross role - the books did get horribly gruesome (inventive places to put live snakes) and tediously violent/sadistic. I can see I am talking myself out of this.Maxine Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06628509319992204770noreply@blogger.com
