Advantages: Morgan Freeman Disadvantages: Robin Hood it would seem
...the surrounding cast. Kiss the Girls is a bit of a psychological thrillery type jobby, similar in a lot of ways to Se7en. Freeman stars as Dr Alex Cross, a detective forensic psychologist from DC. His brother's family get some bad news- Cross' niece away in Durham (not the one in England you fool- Americans have never even *heard* of the real Durham) at University has recently gone missing and the Police are desperately searching for clues- in vain. ... ...(typing?) out loud. Kiss the Girls is the prequel to Along Came a Spider- the well-publicised movie, also starring Morgan Freeman released a few months back. I haven't seen ACaS yet so don't know how much of a prequel it is. Both movies were originally written by James Patterson. Who I've never heard of. I'm full of helpful information aren't I? Ooh but there is a dooyoo category for him if you're really intrigued. If you like Crime thrillers, this ...

Advantages: Morgan Freeman never fails to entertain Disadvantages: Doesnt live up to its promise
Outline
----------
DC Detective psychologist Alex Cross (Morgan Freeman) is hunting for 'Casanova' who has been kidnapping girls in North Carolina. An escaped abductee is helping him, his niece is one of the victims and 'this time its personal'
Plot
------
The film starts off rather spookily with 'Casanova' talking about how he loves all the girls he kidnaps. The music is quite eerie, the titles credits are running over the screen and I feel ... ...Once the introduction is over we cut to Alex Cross training some young kids at the boxing gym. It gives the impression that he is a friendly cop, putting something back into the community. He Pager beeps & he sets of to a crime scene in a Porsche. Cross is also a character in ' Along came a spider', another film base on a Patterson novel (which I haven't read). I get the impression that he has made a lot of money from writing some sort of psychology ...

Advantages: Fantastic storyline thats different for a thiller. Disadvantages: none
As a massive James Patterson fan i watched this film with some resevations. I am happy to say any worries i had about the adaptation where unfounded. The film does appear different from the book, not because there are any chapters missing or plot changes but bacuase the cast where not as i imagined. for that reason the film stands on it's own. you don't have to have read the book to enjoy the storyline.
The plot has plenty of twists that keep you ...
