Jack Reacher

Based on the trailers and what I had heard about the movie I was really looking forward to watching this film.  It was basically a combination of Colombo mixed with Jesse Stone except the main characters not really a good guy he’s kind of somewhere in between.   I have to say I was rather disappointed by this movie. I was expecting it to be a lot better and it dragged on at least 30 minutes longer than I would’ve preferred.  There was a guest-starring performance by Robert Duvall he was really good in it.  It’s kind of hard to explain.  Maybe it would’ve been better for me had I not known there is a book because it felt like it was taking pointers right out of the book and was being obvious about it.

Anyway, I would not recommend people go see this movie.  I was entertained, but I just felt like it was longer than it needed to be and I’ll probably give it three stars or two and a half but I’m putting down three.
