Review of Jack Reacher (2012) by Kerry D — 13 Sep 2013

Well one thing is for sure its not what the poster here states its not at all thrilling. I found it too be soo slow for a thriller.

It was as I mentioned to my sister a thriller for Geriatric people. over 2 hours long and going no where fast.

Another reference that came to mind while I watched this flick was as if I was watching a thriller at the pace of "Driving Miss Daisy".

Now that movie had some pace to it.

Story line was good but really slow and I felt that everyone except Tom Cruise did a good job.

Tom played the same role as he always does beat up bad guys with no acting variation.

The rest of the cast played their parts well and kept the movie watchable.

Do I recommend this flick well if your a die hard Tom Cruise fan then by all means watch it, if not then give it a miss.

The only aspect of the movie I enjoyed was the revving of the American Muscle car that qs part of the very few action sequences that were in the movie.

This is based on a Lee Childs novel I would recommend reading the book instead of watching this I have never read the book but I recommend and can guarantee that your own imagination can do a better job than what and how this movie depicted the story,.

How would I describe this movie in one word.

"Meh".

Ohh and if you want the kids to watch this by all means they can it is PG 13 and due to the extremely slow pace of the movie the kids will fall asleep in no time.
