Jack Reacher
I discovered Lee Childs Jack Reacher stories about 10 years ago, what a great read. Usually we find Reacher hitch hiking, as he wanders the USA, somebody will eventually pick him up despite having a hulkish look at 6-6 260ish. And our story begins.

When I heard there was going to be a movie, yep, excited. But........Tom Cruise? How can the 5-8 170 (guessing) sell the huge Jack Reacher? In the stories the size of Reacher is a constant, we get it.....big bad hombre. Tom Cruise a big bad hombre......nay!

X pro rassler/current actor Dave Batista.....perfect.

If a movie is based on a literary character why not stay as close as possible to the story?

I guess the worst casting job ever was John Wayne as Ghanghis Ghan, What were they thinking?

I love the Reacher series. Just finished up the season the other day. Yeah, it's not great writing, but it is satisfying to see him (and his team) take out the bad guys. It's kind of like the 80s action hero movies. Yeah, they were lame and the writing wasn't great. But who didn't enjoy Rambo going all.....well.....Rambo?

Yeah - that ending fell apart.

But I enjoyed watching Dixon jiggle as she dangled from the helicopter...

The ending to Season 2 was just god awful. The writers were just horrible.

The books just got so repetitive. I think I read the first 4 (maybe 5) and the stories just get stale.

Maybe it's because I was reading them back to back. If I swapped to something else, then back to a Reacher book, maybe they wouldn't get to feeling so tedious.

But it was kinda like trying to binge watch Letterkenny. I love that show in small doses but if you watch three episodes in a row, you really do need a palate cleanser.

I'm not sure I'd go so far as bad, but it wasn't great.

Dudes still got their asses beat. And that's always a good time.

Second season was a couple levels less than first season. BUT season 2 gave us Serinda Swan playing Karla Dixon. So, it's a wash.

I’m currently in the middle of the most recent book, In Too Deep. I don’t recall the Persuader.

I'll be happy if it's even a little better than season 2. Season 2 was a bit of a disappointment.
