Review of Reacher

Reacher (2022– )
7/10
Too explanatory, too predictable -- not too bad though

/refers to Seasons 1 and 2/

I have not read Reacher books, but I have seen different stuff on screen with this character. The thrill is always present, although the viewers should not pay too much attention on the logic of scenes or putting A and B together - the creators have definitely avoided sophistication... :)

As for performances, there are some known performers included, but I can´t say I am too impressed by the leading ones. Alan Ritchson seems too arid and one-dimensional and his non-battle scenes are ridiculous at times. But again, he is not too annoying, not hindering to watch the Season to the end, yet the outcome and the activities leading to it can be guessed hands down. Thus, Reacher is not a must-watch -- but there are much worse creations out there...
