100% As a reader of the books I just couldn’t get behind the Tom Cruise adaptations. The tv series really does it justice.

[@brendaclark5185]

Too much treble in Cruise's voice, for one.

[@brendaclark5185]

SWEET BABY JESUS, but he does that role proud!!

[@jimmisura6533]

Movies are an adaptation of the books they are based on. The Tom cruise version didn’t push the huge physical presence but rather the mysterious dark presence, mental intensity and that fact that trained combat prowess does not require someone of huge physical size to be deadly. I liked the fact that the Cruise “Reacher” could just blend in and disappear. A ghost in the system. That’s not something Ritchson could do. He will always stand out and couldn’t just easily disappear into a crowd. I liked and appreciate both adaptations for different reasons. Ritchson’s Reacher if not careful could come off a little more 2 dimensional.

I think Cruise was the producer of those films.

Cruise wasnt cast for this role. He paid for it. top exec...

[@OneTequilaTwoTequila]

I've never watched the Tom Cruise movies. He's just not believable as a tough guy. Just watched Season 1 of Reacher. Ritchson is awesome in this show! Tom Cruise can go back to his closet!

[@user-gj5gb7fd6n]

Only in novels and on tv😆

I always wondered why they used Tom Cruise for such a role... Lee Child's books always describe Reacher as being huge. Cruise may be agile, fast, but... not huge.

A capable action star for sure, but not the type that befits Jack Reacher

[@michaelgarbett7656]

I am a fan of Jack Reacher but why do people uploading stuff have to talk all the time they obviously llike the sound of their own voice

[@velkanzi]

Cut the guy a break. Was a good exposition. A person has to get there YT career started somehow.

No a brick sh*t house is a woman not a man.

Since when? Originally came from the phrase , "built like a brick shit house". Probably mostly used to describe a man, but could be used for a woman too. Equal opportunity phrase ... not one that could ever be used to describe Tom Cruise though.
