Review of Jack Reacher: Never Go Back (2016) by Christian C — 06 Feb 2017
With an unsophisticated script and groan-worthy dialogue, "Jack Reacher" is a real stretch. The acting is largely uninspired. Cruise rolls through on cruise control with a perfunctory performance (likely the worst I've seen from him).
Smulders' scenes could have been clips harvested from any number of B movies. The only interesting player was Patrick Heusinger, who did manage to infuse some energy into this snooze-fest of a film.
With all its considerable problems, "Jack Reacher: Never Go Back" did effectively communicate one central theme: I certainly NEVER want to come back.
