Kiss the Girls was my least favorite of the ones I've seen. THAT needs to be remade. The movie had so many things wrong with it in terms of the story and characters. Alex Cross is a young guy, with two young kids, living with his grandmother, and yet Morgan Freeman was the best option?

James Patterson has a way of building suspense in a book that is really hard to match in a movie, hence the reason I don't want them turning any more of his books into movies; not until someone finds a way to get it right, anyway. I always go in expecting a 'Silence of the Lambs'-type thriller and I leave disappointed every time.
