Actually recommend every body watch it. Was kind of a typical action movie with some really cheesy ass moments, but it also deals with what freedom really is and the atrocious day to day lives most people deal with and how conspiracies are possible, and how impossible it is to get people to finally "believe". Even how to deal with those behind the conspiracies.

When I first saw the tv trailers, I seriously thought it was a fake movie. Like there would be some twist at the end telling you to buy a car or something.

Re: So I just watched Jack Reacher.
I like Tom Cruise as an actor, so maybe I´ll watch it.
Something about it got me curious.
Though I think the movie title sucks.

Agreed it does, but it does address many problem with societies nowadays. The plot doesn't revolve around it as much as it should, but it does touch on it at the very least.

Re: So I just watched Jack Reacher.
If you read one book from Lee Child on Reacher, you will surely hate this fucking movie.
Tom Cruise couldn't headbutt a sidewalk if he wanted to and that is the trademark of Jack Reacher, it's a total miscast, I hated the movie, but of course wanted to see it.
Tom Cruise may play clever, like Mission Impossible, but he sure doesn´t know how to play the ´tough guy´.

They really fucked up on this one, and a good series is now lost.

My advice, stick to the books..

We saw the Hobbit over the weekend. It was outstanding.

What they could do is with the next one (assuming there will be) Ditch Cruise and bring in a new actor, kind of like what happened with Punisher and Punisher War Zone.

Thinking about it, Ray Stevenson from Punisher WarZone and Rome would have been a good choice for Jack Reacher.

It didn't work for me, very poor adaption imo.
That was not Jack Reacher.

Na, he fucked up that franchise too.
Making Jim Phelps a traitor ffs, then making it all about his character instead of the team, they only exist to support Ethan Hawke, fuck that.

He has producer credits on the last couple too... it's his solo ego vehicle now and MI in name only, he'll probably do the same to Reacher unfortunately.

This ^^

I haven't seen the movie and not really sure if I want to.

I've read all the Reacher books, and when I saw they picked Tom Cruise to represent a 6'4" 240lb badass (Jack Reacher) I couldn't believe it.

I think Tom's a good actor but if you've read the books you wouldn't be able to visualize Tom as Reacher.
