Overview

One morning in an ordinary town, five people are shot dead in a seemingly random attack. All evidence points to a single suspect: an ex-military sniper who is quickly brought into custody. The interrogation yields one written note: ‘Get Jack Reacher!’. Reacher, an enigmatic ex-Army investigator, believes the authorities have the right man but agrees to help the sniper’s defense attorney. However, the more Reacher delves into the case, the less clear-cut it appears. So begins an extraordinary chase for the truth, pitting Jack Reacher against an unexpected enemy, with a skill for violence and a secret to keep.

Viewing Notes

Zowie, I liked ... everything ... about this movie. Tom Cruise may not have “measured up” to the character I pictured in my head from Lee Child’s novels, but this is an excellent cinematic translation by Christopher McQuarrie and a very good cast. Ace tech credits and Pittsburgh is a great location for the story.
