In it, Reacher, a former military police officer and current self-proclaimed fist hero, arrives in an American small town, orders a peach pie, and is arrested for murder.

Reacher presents now Alan Ritchson, a relatively unknown 190-centimeter actor. He is of a suitable age and, above all, a bundle of muscles John Cenan and Arnold Schwarzeneggerin school. Ritchson has also been written into a series of terminator-like whimsy in shifts, from which, however, he does not get the most out of it. Charisma would need more.

Willa Fitzgerald, who plays the police, is in a tight situation along with Jack Reacher.

Nick Santoran the TV series developed is still more Reacher than Cruise Reacherit.

The TV series Reacher is and now works like a book. The character is a great loner with no home or family. He does not base on credit cards or computers. There is only the motherland, the United States, which is cleansed by the one-man army with bare hands of evildoers.

Reacher brand genius is not in the stories but in the central figure, the pure hero as in the westerns sometimes. Reacher is remembered, but not the stories in which he appears. When Reacher is all in all, superiority easily turns unbelievable.

In the TV series, the contradiction has been resolved so that Reacher is the best fighter and in his observations of the new age Sherlock, but otherwise one of the crowd. It works and it doesn’t. In many places, Reacher is left out in his own series.

The actor emerges as a wedge-seeker Malcolm Goodwin as well as another police officer presented Willa Fitzgerald. On them, the series rises to the middle caste of crime series.
