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

Hit an afternoon matinee and was pleasantly surprised that not many people were at the theater. Also quite nice that my small crowd was quiet throughout the screening. Overall a super enjoyable film and one I was not expecting. Didn’t expect a police procedural / mystery with only bursts of action and freckles of humor. Very happy despite a couple of nitpicks. Rosamund Pike remains a favorite and she’s beautiful here. Plus Werner fucking Herzog. Fun flick.
