Jack Reacher was a bad ass movie. I loved it! Can't wait to see a sequel!

Jack Reacher was a bad ass movie. I loved it! Can't wait to see a sequel!

Was it good? I haven't seen it yet, but didn't really expect much from it.

 

[Orobin Thor]

oh it was phenominal! The story keeps you glued. THAT is how a movie should be

 

[Hoss]

For whatever reason, I wasn't super drawn into it. The story was good and the action scenes kicked ass, but all the developing that went on felt dry to me. I liked Oblivion quite a lot better, personally. However, if you're a fan of thrillers, the first movie probably won't disappoint you.

 

[Postman Dave]

Surprisingly liked the first one, so yeah a sequel would be sweet.

 

[Wangman Page]

If it plays off the first one and continues the following of the books. I wouldn't mind it.
