Mike Batie reviews "Jack Reacher"

I was pleasantly surprised. I had heard this movie was good, but had some doubts. I came away relatively pleased with the experience. Some of the scenes were disturbing, at least 6 innocent people are killed in this movie, and not in a nice way. That's rather unsettling for me, especially the way it was shown. I can say that the action, plot and even some humor are rather good. I liked the mystery that the movie takes you through the process of solving.

One funny thing, this movie highlights Tom Cruise a lot...like I feel like it worships him, in a "He's still as hot or bad-a as he was in Top Gun." But he's old, and getting older. I just thought it was entertaining in that respect too, like if  you thought about it enough in certain scenes, it was laughable.

All-in-all, I liked this movie pretty well and think any guy would enjoy its action and some good humor that doesn't feel out of place in this action thriller. Mike Batie gives this movie a thumbs-up.
