Didn't reach my expectations

Rating: 6/10 (15 December 2013)

Jack Reacher is definitely not a must see. In my opinion it tries too hard to create a thrilling and intriguing atmosphere. It let me thinking always a wanna be thriller. The sequences are built sometimes too slow paced. Then certain key scenes let some questions opened that I don't want to spoil out here. The car chase was pretty nice and the fight scenes were funny where I had to laugh very loud. Werner Herzog was really scary. Tom Cruise did no doubt better movies in the past for example in the Mission Impossible parts.
Watch instead the millennium trilogy from the writer Stieg Larsson. Especially the Hollywood version The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. My vote reaches 6 out 10. Too overrated here.
