Alan Ritchson is *_perfect_* as Jack Reacher. In the books, Reacher is 6' 5" and 250 lbs. Whoever cast Tom Cruise, at 5' 7", as Reacher clearly never read the books. They might as well have cast one of the Munchkins. Maybe one of the Lollipop Guild.
Can't wait for S3 :) EVERYONE I've told about Reacher that has actually watched has binged it all. The writing is good but Alan IS Reacher and nails it perfectly.
The actor opening his mouth and getting political really hurt the series and his reputation. The guy stands his ground and argues hes become a Christian at the end of Season 1 and gained a lot of respect. Then season 2 goes on a drink the media kool-aid leftist rant bashing Trump ignoring the obvious remarks by E Jean Carroll constantly changes her accusations and she literally so bat crazy that she told Anderson Cooper that , "Most women think ( R ) is sexy". Ignored that Trump was not allowed to defend himself and was deemed guilty. That really hurt the show IMO.
The actor playing the cop (Domenick Lombardozzi) is really talented. He fits the "hard-man" detective character perfectly. He's in another movie called Reptile and plays that role really well too.
reacher saw in his eyes that he doesnt mess around and reacher also felt that this guy means business when he called him a dirty cop.....reacher understood that he can fight especialy when reacher provoked his pride as a good cop that he is
@@bill2953 And what exactly did you describe by that? How a movie is made. Do you think you're surrounded by morons who can't differentiate between reality and fiction? The script is good.

And you come waltzing in "yeah duh, because it's a movie" You're not better than people throwing the word "fake" around like they are lobotomized.
I don’t like that wacko Cruise, but he’s definitely a better actor. But, Alan is so intimidating with his bulk, it makes up for the lesser acting skills.
@@soupdragonuk RIGHT! Reacher could give him one of his famous head butts that would instantly knock curly to the floor in a daze! This man is stronger than 3 large men!
Like many people said here, I don't think he would expect the head butt, BUT Reacher wouldn't pull that if they did go outside and square up; the detective sure looks like he can take a punch, just the efficient joint manipulation/quick submission Reacher skills overwhelm.
SPOILER: I liked detective Russo, obviously experienced and have been through alot, he had the balls to stand up to Reacher. Even if they fought, i don't think he will be a pushover at the hands of Reacher. I didn't like it when he was killed, i was hoping to see more of him in upcoming seasons.
I wanted these two to go at it. Of course Reacher would have had to win, but it would be nice to show he’s not invincible. “Perfect” heroes are boring.
The only reason why Tom Cruise was cast to play the role of Reacher is because he would be the one putting butts in the movie theater seats. But I do agree that Alan Ritchson is perfect as Reacher. Never read the book, but I’ve watched the series and loved his character. 😊
Me too! I even watch the same episodes from the beginning! I love the episode where he was standing behind a lady at an ATM machine who was withdrawing money to hand over to a kidnapper in the driver's seat of her car with her little boy in the back seat when suddenly Reacher realized what was happening and walked over to the car, smashed out the window, snatched the kidnapper out of the vehicle onto the street! That was funny as all get out! I can't stop laughing every time I watch it!
Yes, I have not read the books so I don't have any hangups about height and size, etc. Both actors are good, Tom has more name recognition for the theaters. Both played their parts convincingly. Just because Tom isn't 6'5", short people can kick ass too.
I’m sure I’m not the only one that was supper pissed when Tom Cruise played reacher , the audacity, reacher literally was the opposite of who Tom cruise was. Alan Richardson is absolutely PERFECT! Finally someone got it right
Printer didn't print the page due to unfinished job in the queue because of low ink. Then how did his handwritten note get on the paper? (From a former printer geek)
This is a stumper for you? The print was pulled out of Franz's printer with a handwritten note from Sanchez. Pretty obvious that Sanchez originally printed it, made the note, then scanned it and sent it to Franz.
While Tom Cruise is a good actor, in our minds he could never be Jack Reacher. After reading nearly thirty books in the series, the Jack Reacher we've come to know and love has to be larger than life. Alan Ritchson is probably as close as they are going to get. Can you think of any other actors who could pull it off? And please don't say the Rock...
Damn I watched both seasons and they know how to pick the best damn people to play the parts so well good job better the Tom cruse in not sorry but this guy put this in to a good show
@@bewmdogg Not sure if you're being sarcastic, or agreeing with me, so I'll spell it out. The printer was out of ink, they had to use the memory chip to print it. That means the deceased never got to print it before he died, or took it with him, because it wasn't there when Reacher searched, so how did his handwriting get on it.
@@jerrybobteasdale I know but the cartridge would have been put in after he died by the detective, if he had done it before he died, the printed page would have been there for Reacher to find. Reacher already said they searched and didn't find it.
OK; at one point curly was bleeped in this video...; WHY? This aired as is on TV without ant bleeps! Why does it need to be bleeped on TH-cam? Who died and deemed TH-cam as our moral mother? TH-cam; get over yourself and stop blocking what you don't agree with! Free speech is just that without you! Get it!
You have no clue what free speech actually means, LOL. It's a private platform they can do what they want and if you don't like it, there's the door ---->
@@pigxstix Truth. The people whining about free speech have no idea what that means. If someone wants to kick me out of their restaurant for wearing a shirt they don't like, they can do that. It's their restaurant.
It's almost like they developed different cuffs. But as we know with humans, we never, in our entire history, have ever upgraded our technology. So I'm with you on this, it must have been technologically impossible in every single way. Making bigger cuffs? No human could achieve that.

Unchaining Reacher and staring him in the eyes confidently is grounds for at least 16 free beers.
I thought you were gonna say 16 Bars lol
honestly dont know how he lug those humongous balls around without a wheel barrow
There are no free beers. Those that you pay for first. And those that you pay for later.
The man's heart was in the right place.
His integrity was solid and firm.
Only someone that clear-conscienced can stand up to Reacher.
He is a very good actor besides. The expression and reaction when he heard the memory card was intact was perfect.
I've read the entire series of books three times and still love it
I never read the books.How accurate is the series?
Love him I can watch his movies all the time is one of the best.I like his serious face,and plain talk.❤❤❤❤.

Tom Cruise bought the rights and produced the movie. He cast himself.

Love the top comment being a spoiler.
@@billthiemann7327 he was an easy guy to cut contract with or he was gonna get punched in face by big dude again at some point
Thanks for the unnanounced spoiler Bob
Tom Cruise was not Reacher. Sorry, but a 5'6" 150lb guy just ain't cutting it.
That's what makes this as successful as it is they finally found Alan to do it. Great casting all around 👍
I don’t like that wacko Cruise, but he’s definitely a better actor. But, Alan is so intimidating with his bulk, it makes up for the lesser acting skills.
Only an idiot would even believe that.
🤣🤣 nothing beats reality
Cruise is/was an awsome Reacher!
The Mob Boss from Tulsa King! Also a fantastic show.
Great show Tulsa King !!!
He was great in "The Wire" as well.

Agreed!
Agreed, Tulsa King rocks
Look, Curly...
😂😂😂
Curly is lucky things didn't end much differently with him unconscious on the floor!

Unrequited violence! I clicked to see these two big guys go at it!
Never gonna happen. It's like Chess, King can't take King.
I keep coming back to this staredown scene, easily top 3 favorite moments in both seasons
Never in any planet or any life he could beat Reacher, not even in his best dreams.
Even if he went at Reacher with Reacher being cuffed, he'd still end up a greasy smear on the floor.
Still, respect for uncuffing and facing him on principle.
@@soupdragonuk RIGHT! Reacher could give him one of his famous head butts that would instantly knock curly to the floor in a daze! This man is stronger than 3 large men!

Nice, real original, regurgitating the comment right before you.
I see it all the time, and just don’t get it.
Killed me!!😂😂😂
Yeah he's a big unit isn't he. Strong as a bull.
One of my favorite movies of all time is "Shane" . Alan Ladd was of short stature , that fight scene was hellasish!
2:05 Wow, Zoey Kruger, the psycho cop who Dexter got in his table too.
Like many people said here, I don't think he would expect the head butt, BUT Reacher wouldn't pull that if they did go outside and square up; the detective sure looks like he can take a punch, just the efficient joint manipulation/quick submission Reacher skills overwhelm.

I can't wait for the next season. Even now, the producers can get some things right.

I wanted these two to go at it. Of course Reacher would have had to win, but it would be nice to show he’s not invincible. “Perfect” heroes are boring.
Reachers strength comes from his character. That’s why he looks at Gaitano as equal
Detective Russo was once of the best parts of that season died a heros death.
Actually it comes from his 6’3, 250 lb frame.
I guess we're just 2 steps ahead of you, Sipowicz. 😃
Somebody needs to go get Simone he needs to be in on this
Andy Sipowicz would probably end up in a fist fight with Reacher, he was more aggressive with a sharper tongue.
I miss that show.

Keep it original to the books & keep the DEI & wokery out of it & it’ll continue to be a hit 👍
Now if Richardson stops with the woke shit outside of work!
I would watch a Live Action Mass Effect series if Alan Ritchson plays Commander Shepard.
Curly is on Stallone's show too!
that time when chickie meets Reacher ~ ;)
Excellent show so when does the new season start?
Not soon enough.

Only a REachAround
If you observe he can make a perfect batman both bruce wayne and batman his persinality
This is from last year
Instead of Curly. He should have called him Uncle Fester.
That's what a would-be bad guy called Mike Ehrmantraut in the parking ramp scene. He paid the price with a sore throat.
I think this guy would make a good captain America or maby blascovic from Wolfenstein
That bald guy is chickey from Tulsa King 😂😂😂 a mobster
He was also Herc on The Wire and one of the detectives in Miami Vice.
My bet is on Thad!
Reacher- perfect material for Space Marine of Warhammer 40k Universe …
Which Chapter though , I do not know…
Thanks, some great “ chutzpah “ in new Reacher stuff ……..(* a big Fella is outstanding!, in Role, & great Acting, generally,
