I always had a problem with Reacher in the books. It was the same with Cusslers Dirk Pitt. These man mountains are like 6ft 2 and 220 lbs of muscle. No one’s gonna pick a fight with them unless it’s always at least three on one. There’s never any tension in a fight when the MC is so big so the books kinda got boring after a while. I liked the idea of going against form and casting Cruise.
Nah I love that Dirk Pitt isn't supposed to be a baddass, like he works for the National Underwater and Marine Agency, so he constantly gets underestimated, and then the further into the series you get people sort of know who he is and what he's about, cos of the Titanic and stuff, but still think he's just some scientist guy, but really he's somehow like the ultimate fighter, investigator, detective kind of guy. It's great lol
I believe that Lee Child's Reacher is 6'5". I was disappointed with Tom Cruise initially due to the size discrepancy but IMO he did such a convincing job, that I was ok with him. I've read all of the novels and I'm not at all bored. Perhaps it's because the stories are so engaging and Reacher although big is also a very talented fighter in all respects in addition to being extremely intelligent and odd. In spite of the interesting connection between historical "events" and current events, I did get tired of Cussler's novels. The good guys are too perfect with essentially not faults-boring.
I could almost believe this whole movie except, "I know there is a bus stop 3 miles away and I can walk there in 24 min." No one walks 3 miles in 24 minutes, except Evan Dunfee....
Tom cruise as Jack reacher, jack reacher in the books is 6foot 2 ish and about 160 pounds of muscle, not 5foot ten ,100 pounds wet through, and built like a stick insect, 😂🤣👍
people go to movies to see something out or the ordinary its a fantasy world. nothings extra ordinary when a mountain of a man is beating small guys. if I want to see ordinary daily lives I'll just watch a documentary not a movie.
The bathroom fight scene is slapstick comedy gold!
Absolutely! It's Keystone Cops!
"Jesus my hand"
"Well, you shouldn't play with guns" LMAO
VOA is the only choice...

I agree. Your opinion makes a very valid point.

As I recall Bruce Lee was also vertically challenged. But I wouldn't say that to his face.
😆👌
LOOKY LOOKY. USELESS COPS. 😂
Liked and subbed

Does anyone ever wonder what Alan would look like in this movie?
No? Just me?
Maybe someone is gonna make a deepfake
Your wrong. Doe your homework. If you’d read a book you’d know the JACK is 6ft tall. And 250 pounds. He’s a big unit
"I don't mind the sight of blood"
"Well it means you're not pregnant anyway."

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ORIGINAL REAL REACHER?
Awesome. 💙 T.E.N.
Bro that's how baddass I am lol
MR DOBACK WAS NOT REALLY A DOCTOR. thats why dale was so weird
I liked these movies way better than the lamely written tv series! What a waste of Alan Richardson as Reacher! Low budget, lame writing!!!

Tom is actually about 5'7 or maybe 6 depending on his shoes
@@lestermount3287 I appreciate Tom for bringing this to everyone's attention.
Lets see your movie roles U reek of being a small man
Childs said that Reacher's size was to show him dominating a room, and Cruise's charisma accomplishes that.
@@paulpearson99 cruise shoud stick to flims that he's god at like top gun he was good in that ,
Can’t believe you ruined Reacher by putting wimp Tom Cruise in it!

Cruise is pathetic as Reacher.......
