JACK REACHER: NEVER GO BACK
Watchable. Intelligent entertainment without depth. The scene from the trailer in which Jack Reacher says what "two things are going to happen in the next 90 seconds" is actually the first one. From then on a riddle follows a riddle and Reacher is always one step ahead. Or if he isn't, his presumed daughter is. The action doesn't relent for a minute so it's all good fun to watch. Apart from that it's a common recently mixture of sexism and feminism: (fighting) fit Cobie Smulders is shown partly undressed, in her push-up bra, for no reason and a bit later she has a rant about how guys tried to grope her in the army or how she's been constatnly asked to look after children and the like. Danika Yarosh is excellent as a streetwise 15 year old. Tom Cruise is visibly aged on his face and neck but in great shape - really pleasing to watch minus the close-ups.
