Reacher getting out of his car |
I think the best and most funniest part was the car chase scene. In the car chase, Emerson, the detective, believes Reacher could be a suspect. During the night, Reacher is cruising around in a nice, stolen SS Camaro, and all of a sudden, Emerson sees him. He orders all the police officers to go after him. Emerson hops into his car and starts chasing after Reacher. This is the part that got me really excited. As the chase was going on, Charlie, who was in a
silver Audi, sees Reacher. Jack doesn't notice Charlie until he gets closer to the Audi.
Charlie rams into the side of the SS Camaro, making it even harder for Jack to get away from the cops. That made Jack pretty angry, so he went after the silver Audi. After pursuing Charlie for a while, the police were getting on to Reacher. So, he walks out of the car, and quickly blends in with a group of bystanders. A man standing beside Jack, gives him his baseball cap so the cops won't notice him. This was my favourite part, and preferably the best part of the film because it was very action-packed and at the end of the scene it was very funny! (Part of this scene is in the trailer above).

You are always waiting to see what happens next, and that constantly keeps you on your toes.
I think that Jack Reacher is a fantastic, action-packed film, and the bit of comedy at the right moments is the icing on the cake. It's a great family movie as well; I went to see this movie with my younger brother and my parents. My parents said Tom Cruise is better than ever and his performance in this role was outstanding. My brother is only nine years old, and the movie captured his interest from the moment it started and all the way to the end. I was actually surprised because he usually cannot sit for ten minutes during a movie. Obviously this movie is full of suspense and keeps you on the edge of your seat for the full 130 minutes.
I would rate this movie a 9/10.
