April 27, 201412 yr Just got hooked. A little too descriptive in places but will be my go-to "beach" books this summer.
April 27, 201412 yr I haven't read the last few, and i have some catching up to do. But yes, they are outstanding. And Tom Cruise WAS THE WRONG CHOICE to play Jack in the movies.

April 28, 201412 yr I haven't read the books, but have been intrigued by them. I have read the physical description of Reacher before, and I agree that Cruise doesn't fit that. That said, I personally though the movie was fantastic. I actually watched it again today on TV.
April 28, 201412 yr I have read the first two books. They are ok. Really slow starting. I liked the movie a lot. TC over played the part IMO
April 28, 201412 yr Have read them all and love them. Agree about Cruise, will have to give it some thought as to who would play him.
April 29, 201412 yr I loved the movie...didn't know there were books. I will have to check them out. About 17 of them.
April 29, 201412 yr Just started "Never Go Back". I have read most Reacher novels and Jack would shoot T C if he knew he was playing him.

I don't know that there is an actor who could physically pull the part off. Reacher is big, like 6'6" 250lbs. There really aren't that many physically imposing actors out there. Vince Vaughn's name was floated out there with the part, but even though he is tall, I don't see him fitting the bill either. I think Gerard Butler could have pulled it off. He's kinda tall, kinda rugged.

April 30, 201412 yr I always envisioned someone who looks like Ron Perlman. I could see that, but at 64 he's probably about 25 years too old. Liam Neeson was another possibility that might have worked
