I agree. I came to the books my Cruise... and thought it well good... then saw Ritchson as started to know better.. .then started into Lee's original work. It's like when my son came to tell me about a great new song w him playing CoD or the like... ... son...

A testament to Tom Cruises skills as an actor. He looks nothing like how Jack Reacher is described in the books, yet he nails his character perfectly. Book-Reacher is a hunk of a man you won't mess with. Cruise-Reacher is someone you underestimate, and that's your last mistake. I like both
Accidentally fixes it. Seeing the 5th group of skinny punks pick a fight with Alan Ritchson after he just put half the town in hospital just stretches credulity. It's a cool power fantasy but at the cost of immersion and suspense.
@@Treblaine Yep, and the dummy made remarks critical of the police. This is not to say that criticism is not warranted at times, but his remarks were not done with any intellect. He screwed himself.
@@VeteranGamerDad4Christ Thing is, Ritchson isn't 6'5" either, but the show casts small people to make him seem bigger. So many of the camera angles try to frame him as taller too, and it gets pretty obvious. Never seen such a cast of bodyguards, henchmen, security and police so small. For the tv show they keep mentioning his size which breaks the immersion for me, for the movies they simply ignored it.
Cruise pulled off the character so well for someone who is 5'8" on a character that is 6'5". Alan Ritchson is probably the difinitive visual adaptation, but Cruise understood the assignment and made a decent Reacher despite his physical mismatch.
@@oldindependent3040 again, I strongly disagree. Cruise never even tried the iconic "Reacher said nothing" and he can't pull off physical intimidation, so he just played the exact same character he plays in every movie. How is this character different to mission impossible, top gun, or the mummy? Cruise makes great action films, and they're entertaining but more than half his films are the exact same guy. That guy is not even close to the Reacher from the books imo
This is a classic movie and you can see why Tom is 1 of the highest paid actors in the world, he is pure gold at putting himself right in the shoes of the character that he is portraying.
Ritchson looks the part and also is more believable as the loner. Tom does a great job making us forget he is only 5’7” because he is so skilled athletically and as an actor.
@@Thereisnospoonforyou I'm not a religious bigot so I don't care. Every religion, Christian, Jew, Muslim, Hindu, Sheik, Buddhist, are all bonkers, all with histories of great violence behind them, and atheists have created some of the most genocidal ideologies in history. So better to take a man at his words and actions rather than his private creation myths.
They are different characters an I love both! Whereas Cruise poses hidden danger in a small frame, combined with his witty arrogance he's almost provocative. Richson is an obvious and imposing danger, he lets his posture do half of his talking, yet he's still full of surprises. You may think that because the guy is so huge and sure of himself you'll have the sucker punch, but he'll hit you first the moment you drop the guard.
Having never read the books before, Tom Cruise was my first introduction to Jack Reacher. Sure he's not as physically imposing as the character is supposed to be, but I feel he played the bit pretty well
I have read almost all of the books. They are very entertaining. Tom Cruise certainly does not meet the physical characteristics of the Jack Reacher in the books. Nonetheless, he does an excellent job of portraying him. Casting Cruise as Reacher has never bothered me one iota.
watch the series, its a much better likeness. Awsome series at that, proably one of the better ones past years. Tom cruise is like 5" 7, alan ritchon in the series is is 6" 3 and wieghts 235 pounds.
@@jmkhenka Tom is 5'4". All of his shoes/boots are specially made to add 2" without people being able to tell. And the rest is choosing short guys to play villains AND good camera work. Tom is very sensitive to mention of height. 5'9" is the average height for American men. And someone once said that the majority of handsome male actors are below average in height Apparently, the heads of shorter guys look slightly larger, which makes the actor look more imposing.
But its well written for Tom Cruise, the bar fight scene is reliant on the fact that Reacher looks like someone average guy could take on. The lack of Cruise's physique also justifies him being brutal. In the series with Alan Ritchson, the house entrance fight didn't work, it looked like four 5 foot nerds tried to gang up on a 7 foot linebacker. It also looked like Ritchson is overly brutal in the scene. That being said, it worked in the series when he had to fight against hardened criminals.
Tom Cruise did an amazing job channeling the “spirit “ of Reacher. One does not need to be 6’3 and 235 to be a bad ass mofo…. Bruce Lee was small in physical stature and anyone with a brain didn’t want to mess with him. Speed, agility, tenacity and determination are far more important than physical size.
If you haven't read the books Tom Cruise made the character better with his skill as an actor, the movies are less corny. If you settle for big dumb guy action (like the books) the series is fine. Alan Richardson is a big gut, fits the part, but he is not much of an actor so Reacher doesn't come across as very bright in the show.

Now you should understand something about me - I'm 51 - Started Martial Arts since i was 8 - The list of Martial Arts that i studied is a very long list and i'll save you the boredom of reading it. Let's just call it, A LONG LIST - In the time that i'm talking about i was between the ages of 25 - 38 - I was training 6 to 7 days a week and approx 4 hours training a day Then from time to time idiots would try and rob me, Either unarmed or with various weapons. If they attacked me with a knife i wouldn't say "Remember, you wanted this" I would say "Are you sure about this ?" They would say "Give me your money" I would say "You're gonna lose, Are you sure you want to do this ?" if they moved.... I took their knife and put them in a world of pain In some cases, they just looked at me and ran away HEY... IT'S A GOOD WAY TO GET RID OF IDIOTS but, Yes... if someone looks you dead in the eye and says something like "Remember you wanted this" or "Are you sure about this" or "You're gonna lose" BE VERY CAREFUL HOW YOU PROCEED.

To seeing trained people just do one slap..like a hand slap and people fall to the ground. Often its not even the hits that dangerous, its the fall.

Werner Herzog could be doing his fucking laundry and he'd still creep me out. "Have you thought about the transient nature of that which we call possessions, and our need to so routinely clean, even if we're seen by no-one? It provokes a sense of dread, and a consideration to the outlay of laundry detergent. But, all the same, I will persist in this world, and wash my underpants."
I remember all the flak this version caught because Tom Cruise's size doesn't match that of the book's character description. However, Tom's smaller, leaner stature makes Jack Reacher all the more badass because he is that much more unassuming. Besides, if you know Special Forces dudes, the majority of them are average size; not large, hulking behemoths. So, all that to say that I much prefer this version overall.
I look at both actors who played reacher like this....alan is year one reacher...smart but a bit cocky he hasnt really been jaded yet and become griseled yet. Tom is the rough been through it all version whos seen how shit humanity can be but he keeps on trucking. Both did phenomenal in their own way.
This is actually a really perceptive take I've never heard before. Nice job man. And now that I think about you're actually kind of right. Cruise appears far more as the griseled vet who doesn't really care anymore, while Rictchson is still quiet, but upbeat, cracks jokes and seems to enjoy his life and helping people a bit more.
Tom Cruise Reacher was excellent despite not complying with the books. Ritchson is brilliant but the intensity Cruise brought to the role is missing in the series...
I didn't mind Cruise as Reacher (as I only started reading the books after the first movie), but am I the only one who has more of an issue with Reacher's driving in the films? In the books he is always a self-confessed bad/mediocre driver while in the films he is anything but that. That bothered me more than the difference in verticality in book and films. Apart from that, I recognised Reacher in Cruise's performance after I started reading the books ...
"When it means you're not pregnant, anyway." The fact she took about 3 seconds to turn around angry, meaning she took that long to get the joke, absolutely destroyed me
Hey, they're having a busy day. There's a holdup in the Bronx, Brooklyn's broken out in fights, there's a traffic jam in Harlem that's backed up to Jackson Heights...
@@osco4311 Well, the violent crime rate keeps falling. But the remaining career criminals keep getting more violent, dangerous, and depraved. For example, look up trends in the ratio of home invasion robberies to simple burglaries. While the law enforcement response is being badly undercut by a culture of ACAB, harassment of informants, catch-and-release zero bail, poor IT practices in maintaining the 911 system for reporting and responding to emergencies, and political pressure on state and local agencies to NOT share arrest records with their peers in other jurisdictions or Federal agencies.
lol both are adapted from the books tho. This will probably be the only adaptation of the 9th book One Shot we will ever get. The other seasons and movies are all different books all from the same 1 writer Lee Child of book 1, 9, 11, and 18.
@@edfederoff2679 I think the difference is "The Swede" is, more or less, how Reacher is described in the books. So if you are watching Reacher and you see The Swede, then the character matches. Tom, for as phenomenal of an actor as he is and how well he performs this role, definitely doesn't match the character.

3:51 If someone says "You wanted this" before the fight, know you will lose. Badly.
I mean, that’s just a film
@@dederistote
NO.... NOT NECESSARILY
I've done this several times in my life.
Now, i understand what you mean and .. in the majority of cases, Yes it's a movie and it's choreographed.
I get that !
Now you should understand something about me
- I'm 51
- Started Martial Arts since i was 8
- The list of Martial Arts that i studied is a very long list and i'll save you the boredom of reading it.
Let's just call it, A LONG LIST
- In the time that i'm talking about i was between the ages of 25 - 38
- I was training 6 to 7 days a week and approx 4 hours training a day
Then from time to time idiots would try and rob me, Either unarmed or with various weapons.
If they attacked me with a knife i wouldn't say "Remember, you wanted this" I would say
"Are you sure about this ?"
They would say "Give me your money"
I would say "You're gonna lose, Are you sure you want to do this ?"
if they moved.... I took their knife and put them in a world of pain
In some cases, they just looked at me and ran away
HEY... IT'S A GOOD WAY TO GET RID OF IDIOTS
but, Yes... if someone looks you dead in the eye and says something like
"Remember you wanted this" or
"Are you sure about this" or
"You're gonna lose"
BE VERY CAREFUL HOW YOU PROCEED.
Because there is a way that a guy says it who is bluffing
and there is another way that a guy like me says it who is Absolutely certain of what he is doing.
A Person like me who has experience will usually also give you an opportunity to walk away.
A Guy who is bluffing generally won't and he'll show off and try and throw out insults.
so, No, you don't just see this in a movie.
It definitely happens in real life
@@martinkuliza Well, kudos to you and your curriculum vitae, it’s really impressive.
And what I meant by that, is that those situation are far from representing the majority of the cases, unfortunately
@@martinkuliza I hear this shit every night im working as a doorman at night clubs man.
Its 99% bullshit comming from guys who have watched too much youtube. Sure some of them are probably trained some way or another.
Fights in the streets are unpredictable..A hit in wrong place with "right" force and even the trained people go down against a weirdo drunk just smashing randomly.
Ive seen it all, from two extremely fit people hitting at eachother like you see in cartoon shows, to a very known mma fighter getting clapped by a non trained person.
To seeing trained people just do one slap..like a hand slap and people fall to the ground.
Often its not even the hits that dangerous, its the fall.
Fighting is only supposed to be used in self defense..Sadly we have these moronic low iq baboons running around thinking they are more of a man if the just fight someone here and there.
@@dederistote
"Well, kudos to you and your curriculum vitae"
Thank You good sir :P
"And what I meant by that, is that those situation are far from representing the majority of the cases, unfortunately"
Ohh of course they are the minority,
but the point is.. in that minority you're gonna get your arse handed to you and get hurt really badly. if it was the majority you wouldn't really need to be vigilant as it would be the norm
Werner Herzog could be doing his fucking laundry and he'd still creep me out. "Have you thought about the transient nature of that which we call possessions, and our need to so routinely clean, even if we're seen by no-one? It provokes a sense of dread, and a consideration to the outlay of laundry detergent. But, all the same, I will persist in this world, and wash my underpants."
Actually tho😂😂😂
Shows how Tom can completely carry a movie, his shoulders are that broad.
i miss that phone slam back in the day.
We got a problem: How do you slam a flip phone??
@@dough9512 easily. But you can only do it once.
I remember all the flak this version caught because Tom Cruise's size doesn't match that of the book's character description. However, Tom's smaller, leaner stature makes Jack Reacher all the more badass because he is that much more unassuming. Besides, if you know Special Forces dudes, the majority of them are average size; not large, hulking behemoths. So, all that to say that I much prefer this version overall.
One of the best ending to a action movie
I look at both actors who played reacher like this....alan is year one reacher...smart but a bit cocky he hasnt really been jaded yet and become griseled yet. Tom is the rough been through it all version whos seen how shit humanity can be but he keeps on trucking. Both did phenomenal in their own way.
This is actually a really perceptive take I've never heard before. Nice job man. And now that I think about you're actually kind of right. Cruise appears far more as the griseled vet who doesn't really care anymore, while Rictchson is still quiet, but upbeat, cracks jokes and seems to enjoy his life and helping people a bit more.
Great Jack reacher !
Tom Cruise Reacher was excellent despite not complying with the books. Ritchson is brilliant but the intensity Cruise brought to the role is missing in the series...
Not even close, Cruise was the worst casting choice.
@@jdsim9173 For those who had read the books...
I don’t know if I would call it intensity or presence
@@jdsim9173 Just becuase hes not tall as Reacher in the books...
I didn't mind Cruise as Reacher (as I only started reading the books after the first movie), but am I the only one who has more of an issue with Reacher's driving in the films? In the books he is always a self-confessed bad/mediocre driver while in the films he is anything but that. That bothered me more than the difference in verticality in book and films. Apart from that, I recognised Reacher in Cruise's performance after I started reading the books ...
I know Tom made a tiny Reacher but I still like these movies.
That spinning elbow he did on the first guy is used in Muay Thai and WORKS.
It works....IF you have the reflexes and the poise/confidence to pull it off. Most people flinch when a fist is coming at them.
@@lamplighter1968that's why it's used in Muay Thai... What trained fighter flinches from a fist?..
"When it means you're not pregnant, anyway."
The fact she took about 3 seconds to turn around angry, meaning she took that long to get the joke, absolutely destroyed me
Zec talked himself into his own death. Lol!
The last dialogue with Zec Chelovek.
Some people just don't seem to get, you don't mock and dare a trained killer to kill you.
"I have an emergency ... yes, I'll hold" What the hell?
Hey, they're having a busy day. There's a holdup in the Bronx, Brooklyn's broken out in fights, there's a traffic jam in Harlem that's backed up to Jackson Heights...
@@Activated_ComplexUnfortunately common now, actually
@@osco4311 Well, the violent crime rate keeps falling. But the remaining career criminals keep getting more violent, dangerous, and depraved. For example, look up trends in the ratio of home invasion robberies to simple burglaries.
While the law enforcement response is being badly undercut by a culture of ACAB, harassment of informants, catch-and-release zero bail, poor IT practices in maintaining the 911 system for reporting and responding to emergencies, and political pressure on state and local agencies to NOT share arrest records with their peers in other jurisdictions or Federal agencies.
@@Activated_Complex Car 54, where are you???
Operator after putting caller on hold: "Do we have anyone on stand-by?"
-Would you like to rent the movie sir?
-Why? I just saw the best part!
I'm a huge fan of werner herzog films. I recognized that voice right away.
In case anyone was wondering. Reacher won the bet at the end.
Werner Herzog shows up when you least expect him, and punches a hole in the screen every time.
big love for tom , bravo
Smart man, Reacher. I'll bet the prisoner realised that he had said too much, just before he was shot!
Note: At 9:25 she calls the police, “I have an emergency, yes I will hold.” 😂😂😂😂
A very good movie 🍿
Cruise’s Reacher movies were popular, I found him effective as a tough guy and I don’t care how tall the guy in the book was.
I met a soldier from the Vietnam War. He told me how well a few MP's could clear a path in a bar. They never take either Reacher at face value.
"Jesus, my hand"
"Well you shouldn't play with guns"
😂
As a non veteran a specialist in various areas very good performance
?
Woohoo!! Phone Fight! :D
Did that all the time.
Fun was making the other person's phone strobe beeps on and off by ringing them super fast
"what did you do" tied up loose ends......
"Use it as long as you like" was exactly the correct answer lmao
Love cruise as Reacher
Much better than the reacher TV series.
9:54 Jack knew what kind of man he was dealing with.
He was left with no choice but to shoot him.
Much better written than the series. Hire the movie writers for the series. Win win.
lol both are adapted from the books tho. This will probably be the only adaptation of the 9th book One Shot we will ever get. The other seasons and movies are all different books all from the same 1 writer Lee Child of book 1, 9, 11, and 18.
Movie has a lot more time to adapt compared to a series, and much higher budget too.
Applea and Oranges. No comparison needed nor warranted,
A smaller guy doing amazing things, is more impressive than a giant guy. Maybe less realistic but certainly more impressive.
Whenever i look at Reacher, all i see is Tom Cruise..Tom's superstar power oevrshadows everything.
Whenever I look at Alan Richman, the new Reacher - all I see is The Swede - from "Heartbreak Ridge" - LOL.
@@edfederoff2679 I think the difference is "The Swede" is, more or less, how Reacher is described in the books. So if you are watching Reacher and you see The Swede, then the character matches.
Tom, for as phenomenal of an actor as he is and how well he performs this role, definitely doesn't match the character.
Tom Cruise NEVER plays a character. He always plays himself playing a character.
Loved this movie
Jack Reacher : The Groin Kicker
Krav Maga says basically...do whatever to neutralize the threat
I have to hand it to Cruz, he's very good
I liked seeing Werner here!
Not my favorite individual, BUT G.D! great movies
Pay your bill before we go. Ha ha
Very well done
Remember you wanted this.
his mistake was he was thinking that Jack is a hero.
"Got a pen."
"Don't need one."
Immediately forgets the number. 😂
- Got a pen ?
- don't need one.
- oh, you have super memory or something ?
- Nah... I just don't have a piece of paper to write on neither.
He literally took the words, "Its better to burn out than to fade away" -Jeff Blackburn The Ducks
Wow. I was expecting to see the, "I know where the hospital is," scene.
THANK YOU JESUS FOREVER
The Zec made a fatal mistake: Saying how he would walk. He realised just before.....
The thumbnail is at about 5:45
You're welcome.
i like her
Werner herzog my favourite director.
I know a guy who can, has and does things like this for many years. He isn't as big as Reacher just as bad.
They liked this ideal so much they made it a TV series.
