      The only issue I have with that movie is that Jack Reacher is described as 6’ 5” 250lbs of muscle in the books.

      Tom Cruise is not that. Alan Ritchson is a much closer version of Reacher.

        Agree. The entire point of the character was that he was a guy that every bad guy would look at and decide they didn’t need that kind of trouble.

        The two seasons on Amazon are much closer to the books, at least wrt the main character.

        No, Jack Reacher. I believe the first movie. Good movies by the way, because these movies are not just action and violence but some part investigation as well.
