Great author, but how could someone who conceived of a 6'5" guy who is so strong, that his muscles stop bullets, approve of the choice of Tom Cruise????? Tom Cruise is a pussy compared to say... Chris Hemsworth, the guy who played Thor??? Seriously, as a 6'6" man, I certainly identified with the character of Jack Reacher. I was even a drifter for a spell after getting out of the military, but Tom Cruise is no Jack Reacher. Poor choice!!!
@MiniGolfRocks I would take a bad actor over Tom Cruise, who on his own is the very antithesis of the Jack Reacher character. Actually, while he is only 6' tall, Mark Valley has that "Reacher look".
love the books but it makes me sick that Tom Cruse a 5 foot 7 dwarf with nothing even remotely symler to reacher is playing him in the movie Tom Hardy or Gerard butler would be a much better choice
Best books period. Awsome. Please write more, I do audiobooks, drive lots, great books, better man, dont we all wish we were a bit more like Jack, be honest guys, you know you do. Okay, I do.
@darrylsh you asked where is Lee Child from...i answered he is brirish and if you read any of Jack Reacher stories, you would seen somwhere b4 the story begins, a small article about Lee Child.....
@jenniferfoxy I didn't ask where he was from geographically you fool! I asked where "lee Child" came from. That is not his reall name. So my question is how did he come up with his fake pen name of lee child? Do you know?
You have got to be kidding. Pretty boy Ben is about 6' 1" and maybe 200. I'm 55 and I would take at shot at him anytime--The real Jack Reacher is Bill Goldberg. 6' 5" 260 pounds, mixed martial artist, extreme wrestler and certified bad ass. 6 guys in a bar fight would just be a warm up for him--He's hosted many different car shows on cable and been in 2 movies. He can definitely play the part of Reacher.
Goldberg is Jack!
Ben wouldn't last 5 seconds in a street fight with Goldberg-Game over!
@Dividog Okay description, but if I may, I disagree. Goldberg looks like a body builder gang biker. Reacher looks like a tall bum. That's it. He never excersices in any way other than walking, doesn't eat sport nutrition rich in protein meals, and takes relatively poor care of himself. Only in Tripwire he puts on weight working out with a shovel. Summing up, goldberg arms are like trees, while Reacher's are like tendons with no muscle, as described in Persuader.
I started reading the books since 3 days and am loving every word I'm reading!I usually get bored when I read books but not with Lee Child's Jack Reacher novels =)
I have read all of Lee Childs books. Fast pace and lots of action. Love the Reacher character. Looking forward to reading Nothing to Lose. Keep them coming and Thanks
this film would have been perfect for a new unknown actor to star as the big man!!

ive read all the Reacher books, some more than once, and it's safe to say he's the biggest ass-kicker in literary history
