*PlayingAgainstType: Tyler Perry has played roles other than Madea, but he's played her so many times that for many, it's hard to imagine him as anyone else, or even that [[IAmNotSpock he's so un-Madea]] when just being himself. A few jaws dropped upon the reveal of who'd be playing the younger version of Creator/MorganFreeman's thriller hero.

** ''Film/AlexCross'' was already established in two movies starring Creator/MorganFreeman. Creator/IdrisElba was originally supposed to play Cross but bowed out. (See his performance as the tortured DCI {{Series/Luther}}.) On the one hand, you understand what the producers were thinking in casting Creator/TylerPerry. Alex Cross has the potential to be a major franchise and you want to guarantee the most money you can. Tyler Perry was probably the most-successful black star at the time. But there is [[TomHanksSyndrome a problem]] with Perry. It's like arguing that since Jim Varney can do ''Ernest'' movies, he is a clear choice for Sherlock Holmes. You have this tall, muscular man who should be physically-imposing but comes off like a teddy bear.
** This is a really cheap movie. Now, budget is not an indicator of a movie’s success. But why release something with what appears to be the same production values as a sweeps week ''CSI'' episode? The filmmakers needed a little bit more spectacle to give the audience a reason to pay for this rather than see any free cop show. Cross doesn't really do anything during the movie to showcase his talents.
