Long time Reacher fan - loved it!

Rating: 9/10 (30 December 2012)

I was surprised how much I enjoyed this interpretation of this great Jack Reacher story. It had a powerful, yet whip smart edge. I'd not thought of Reacher that way before, but it worked really well and I enjoyed the story all the more for this fresh approach. So the thinking side of the show was a surprise, a pleasant surprise!
Even my wife, who is definitely not a Jack Reacher fan, loved the show. The powerful, yet restrained approach played by Tom Cruise really struck her as fresh and admirable. Also, he doesn't just jump into bed with every beautiful woman, even though there's obvious interest and tension ther
