Not worth watching

Rating: 3/10 (16 January 2016)

Though the movie is based on Lee Child's novel "One Shot", it doesn't make justice to the novel. Several important characters are omitted that are omitted for the sake of brevity, and this makes the storyline jittery. The story loses the flow many times. Unwanted heroics have been added into the movie which doesn't exist in the novel. The Zec has been shown as a much weaker guy. And whoever chose those funny guys as his associates was perhaps blind or plain dumb; for me they all look like a set of clowns.
More than anything, the movie kills the surprise quotient by showing the face of the murderer! Honestly speaking, Tom Cruise doesn't look like the original Jack Reacher. If you're watching the movie after reading the novel, you may not like it. Further, if you're watching after reading all novels of Jack Reacher series, you'll definitely hate the movie!
