I enjoyed it, not up to some of the other Amazon series' standards but it was entertaining.
I'm sure they'll make another season.

Just watched it. They did a good job with it. Much better than the movies.

Did anyone else catch the cameo at the end?

Last episode at the end, when Reacher is walking in to the diner, the gentleman walking out is James Dover Grant, better known as Lee Child, the author of the books.

I really liked it - plus im bored AF during the winter, so win-win.

This was the only part that annoyed me. Why go through the trouble of this much detail only to get it wrong? Im not even a 'serious' gun guy and I cringed...

I could see the "95g" having some validity (Personal Defense loads), but yeah, should have called it a suppressor.

Edit: and I seriously doubt they were subsonic. They're usually higher velocity, like 1300fps.

Yeah - Ive never seen subsonic below 124 (or realistically 147gr) and no one smart enough to intentionally select bullet weight is dumb enough to use supersonic out of a suppressor & expect it to be quiet...

Thought it was entertaining. Big dumb dumb is a terrible actor, but when you look beyond that, it's good. Will watch season 2.

This was my issue with the show as well. I guess they needed a big intimidating person, but I don't know what it is about him just wasnt a fan of the acting or something.

As mentioned previously, the book character is supposed to be 6'5" and about 225-250 lbs, so yeah, not a lot of actors fit that description.

I mean it wasnt the worst acting ever, but there was quite a few times when the lines just didnt come across as they should have.

It was still entertaining, Id say a 7/10 or so.

Still not as good as Jack Ryan though.

I think it was better than the movies.

Tom Cruise in the Reacher role is like using someone 6'2" to play the role of Logan/Wolverine, who is supposed to be short and stocky (5'3" - 300lbs). Oh wait, they did do that, didn't they? :D
