The first in the film franchise and based on the 2005 Lee Child novel One Shot, Jack Reacher stars Cruise as a former military officer investigating a homicide. Though the book series describes Reacher as 6’5” tall and weighing between 210 and 250 pounds, the role was re-imagined for the 5’7” Cruise.
“Reacher is a brawny action figure whose exploits would have been a good fit for the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger or Sylvester Stallone back in the day, but feel less fun when delegated to a leading man like Tom Cruise. The star is too charismatic to play someone so cold-blooded, and his fans likely won't appreciate the stretch.” —Peter Debruge, Variety
