I have read six or seven of the original series, and my favorites are "Killing Land" and "Chain of Doom", and I have read them several times. I also read this book "Perfect Suspect", but it was a whole-and-drink style. I only read it once, and I don't remember the details. I don't even remember that the police officer was a bad guy.
The character of Recher is quite individual. Tom played him very well. The screenwriter is also good, and the character of the character is perfectly restored. When I read the original book, I liked this character very much. I thank Tom, who I have been a fan of for many years, for playing my favorite character so well.
After talking about a lot of mess, let's go back to the film itself.
The reasoning process of the whole film is rigorous, and the actors' performances are also very good. Although the director is a newcomer, he feels a little weak in some places, but the overall is good, and there is no major problem. As a new director, it is much better than I expected.
Talk about action scenes. There are not many action scenes, the confrontation is still very fierce, and there are no fancy parts, punching to the flesh, quite realistic. I was a little scared when I watched the car chase scene. The speed wasn't amazing, but I felt scared. I don't know how to drive, but the driver said that this kind of car chase looks easy, but it's actually very difficult. Uh, I'm a layman, I'd better watch the car chase scene...
Some people don't understand why Reacher throws down the gun and fights the villain, I think it's very understandable. The death of the girl in the auto parts store made Reicher quite angry. In addition to the four innocent people who died and one target who was shot dead, according to Reicher's character, it is completely reasonable to fight against the bad guys. It is quite in line with his identity as an urban ranger. .
The part where Recher killed the boss and said goodbye to the lawyer girl was a bit rushed, but in the end, the lawyer girl went to find the perfect suspect who was framed. I liked that part very much. It was a very suitable ending to the film and was a highlight. Looking at the conversation between the lawyer girl and the perfect suspect, there is an indescribable feeling. feels good.
At the end of the film, we can see Tom's ambition to make this film into a series. As a fan who first became a fan of Tom, and then read the original book and fell in love with the character of Recher because of him, I look forward to "Jack Reacher" the second part.
ps: The lawyer girl is much prettier than in the trailer.
The film deserves four stars, because I like Tom, so let's add one more. The director can do better.
