Reacher (2022)

Lee Child was not happy with Cruise getting the part for the film version of Reacher and it is clear why watching this great tv adaption - about 1 foot in height and around 1 ton of screen presence. Alan Ritchson is phenomenal in the role - he dominates the screen as well as anyone stupid enough to go up against him.

He reminds me of Vince Vaughn in Brawl in Cell Block 99 - another 6 and half footer demolishing anyone who comes up against him - only he is more of a gentle giant compared to Ritchson who has a dangerous look in his eye.

My only complaint is the fights last too long - I get the feeling that a man like Reacher would be a bit more efficient when facing 5 guys in a bathroom.

LOLOLOL, Cell block 99, that was brutal. Tom Cruise made his own movie. However, this is okay for the most part with the new Reacher dude. Tom Cruise, Pfffffffttttt. I like the dangerous look in the eye etc. I really don’t feel they will ever get this on point. On to the books…which I’d rather read then watch this fantasy. I love the character and would rather have him in my head that isn’t in this show.
