Feels like Jack Reacher is just another Mission Impossible movie with Cruise in it -- nm* - budice Apr 12, 09:17 11
- I believe it was the author who said that Reacher is revenge pron. Every want someone to murder the worst in society? Then read his Reacher books - Beaker Apr 12, 09:54
- On the surface, yes. In the details ... - Beryllium Apr 12, 09:33
- Except they are not nearly as good. (NM) - Marlowe Apr 12, 09:24 8
  - Reacher 1 was really good. - Will Hunting Apr 12, 09:27 7
    - Both were equally meh. (NM) - Marlowe Apr 12, 09:41
    - 1 is crap. 2 is solid. -- nm - David Apr 12, 09:35 4
      - WHAT? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 12, 09:39 3

        The Upside Down. -- nm - Spawn Apr 12, 11:16
    - Reacher 2 had some flaws. It was not as good as 1, but still (IMO) very watchable. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 12, 09:34
he would of been perfect in size (Cruise actually nailed the character dead-on, only hard to make him a 6'6" man-monster like Reacher in looks) -- nm - Beaker Apr 12, 09:14 3
- Yes, I think cruise does well with what he's got. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 12, 09:32 2
  - the biggest problem with the first one was - spoilers -- (edited) - Beaker Apr 12, 09:57 1
    - Ah, fair point, that's very M:i ... - Beryllium Apr 12, 10:05
He would've been great, and more in keeping with the character's stature and the mistrust and standoffishness he encounters everywhere he goes ... -- nm - Beryllium Apr 12, 09:13
