Never read the book, pretty tame movie

Rating: 3/10 (23 April 2013)

Most reviews I read about the flick were that it was nothing like the books, but still a good movie. I'm not too sure about the latter. There was some pretty bad acting on Rosamund Pike and Richard Jenkins part, silly plot twists, and conclusions that were drawn with no evidence to support them; and Tom Cruise was just being his typical Tom Cruise self (I really wish he did more interesting roles more often, he really is a good actor when in the right situation).
Oh, and as the title mentions; I never read the book, but I have heard descriptions of the main character from it. In one of the most bizarre pieces of dialog; some of the characters in the movie are clearly describing the physique of the Jack Reacher from the book and not the Tom Cruise version...why something like that would be in the movie is completely beyond me.
