A bad novel made into a bad movie

Rating: 1/10 (4 July 2013)

This is a Tom Cruise vehicle to show him shooting, fist fighting, driving in a car chase etc. Often his vehicles work as in the MI series.
But in this movie the story is silly and not very interesting. The story is bad often boring and meaningless or disgusting. The editing and directing is confusing and abrupt. The casting and acting are bad. Rosamund Pike has a rather expressionless blank face and comes across as cold. Even whie being held captive she looked like she was going to a PTA meeting. NO fear or anxiety on her face at all. Tom tries to be a cool guy but he looks to old for the fist fights gun fights car chases etc. The worst part is when Jack Reacher threw down his gun to fight the bad guy by hand while a hostage was waiting for rescue.
This is a waste of time. A bad novel made into a bad movie. Shouldn't have been adapated for the big screen.
Don't waste your time.
