I saw it tonight and have mixed feelings about it. I have enjoyed the Jack Reacher character more than the story lines in Lee Child's books. The lifestyle and thought process of Reacher is more interesting than the Huge Evil Conspiracies that he always seems to run across. Tom Cruise is miscast playing a character who is huge and physically intimidating.
Plot holes and general head-scratchers abound. WTF is the deal with Duvall's shooting ability? Then Reacher makes an Enemy at the Gates type shot. If you have not seen EATG, suffice it to say that the shot was all but impossible.
And maybe I missed something but:
might go see jack reacher tonight.

Look at the thumbnail of the guy who put the quarter in the meter. Then look at the thumbnail of the guy being interviewed by the cops. Same guy. Later we saw the quarter being put on his thumb to get the print in place. So what sense does it make to show a close up of the innocent set up guy's thumb putting the quarter in the meter? Are we to believe that the actual shooter had the exact same injury to his thumb?
