Finally got around to watching the "Jack Reacher" movie [View all]

It's on Netflix, so I didn't waste any money on it. It was actually better than I thought it would be. I was expecting a ton of car chases and explosions. More of a thriller/mystery. I'll probably watch the second one this weekend.

It wasn't bad. Tom Cruise did a pretty good job. It's just hard for me to buy him being the badass that Reacher is. captain queeg Aug 2024 #5

I much preferred the movies. I tried watching the series tulipsandroses Aug 2024 #6

I've read ten or so of the Reacher novels and Abolishinist Aug 2024 #11

The Cruise movies are good movies for what they are, but they aren't Reacher. rsdsharp Aug 2024 #9
