Doubles down, cops get away with murder. Bravery for speaking g out.

Really wanting me to not see his new movie that just opened. I can imagine the Producer is furious.

Not Reacher. Say it isn't so. Alan Ritchson says Trump is a rapist and a con man.

And I was going to see his new movie coming out this week.

Overall, I enjoyed it, but, the final episode was just awful. Cringey. Cliche.

YMMV
I have finished it now and can not wait for season 2. Having read this before seeing the final episode I was really not expecting much. Yes, it was somewhat cliche, seen it before. But due to the age of the books, that can happen.

Overall it was great, I also would give it a 9.

First Jack Reacher movie with Tom was pretty good. Second one less so. And yes the new guy is much better and more believable.

We need to start a new advisory organization: Authors for Meticulous Mention of Ordnance, or AMMO.

Don't know if what you're writing about small arms and ammunition is correct? If it even makes any sense? Want to be certain you don't turn-off the millions of readers--or worse, make them laugh--who actually know which end of a gun the projectile comes out of? Take five minutes and ask us before you send that draft to your editor.
There seemed to be discussion in the Reacher series about sub sonic ammunition and silencers and 9mm. Did know if any of that was accurate. They seem to pass around a really big handgun. Desert Eagle ? So far no rifles. Even small time crooks in Houston now carry rifles.

It's funny. There are plenty of F-bombs in Reacher, but they don't seem nearly as offensive as they are in Yellowstone.
That’s weird, because neither my wife nor I remember there being much profanity at all. Maybe it’s because the cussing wasn’t a central characteristic of the characters. In Yellowstone, the male cussing was exceeded only by the female cussing. Now, this stuff doesn’t bother me nearly as much as it does my wife, but even I thought it was a bit overdone.
I don't remember any cussing.
(spoiler kind of)
However I was surprised by the Old Chief of Police. It was my view that it was not a real human for that scene.

Author praises recasting of taller actor.

Probably anyone they picked would be taller.

Reacher on Amazon Prime

I'm loving it. Watched episode 3 and 4 last night. Wife is enjoying it as well.

Allan Ritchson is fantastic as Jack Reacher. Much better than Tom Cruise, although both Jack Reacher movies were good.

Not as much gun fighting as fist fighting. Its like if Sherlock Holmes was a brute with a sense of humor.
