Rating: 5/10 (20 November 2013)

This movie is geared for those who are 14 and older, preferably those who enjoy action thrillers/mysteries. Jack Reacher is comfortably watched either on a rainy afternoon or an early evening movie, with lots of popcorn ready. You don't want to miss a single line nor piece of action in this movie. I don't know the Reacher books so I can't evaluate the movie as to how close it is to the book. However, the story has lots of twists and turns in it. It sort of reminded me of the Hammett movies in which Bogart starred as the detective and the Maltese Falcon. To me, Tom Cruise was very believable. Rosamund Pike was good and reminded me of Kathleen Turner. Even the end was a bit surprising. The movie kept me guessing most of the time and totally held my attention. Both men and women should enjoy the movie -- eye candy for both sexes.
