“Reacher” received numerous positive reviews when it launched in February. At present, its IMDb score is as high as 8.5, and more than 30,000 people have evaluated it.
And “Reacher” has broken into the top five most viewed streaming platforms on Amazon Prime Video. (The others are “The Boys”, “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”, “Fleabag”, etc.)
Moreover, Amazon also renewed the second season of “Reacher” non-stop on the third day after the launch.
So what’s so good about “Reacher”?
First of all, I am very satisfied with the casting of the protagonist.
Before the series starred Alan Ritchson, writer Lee Child’s “Jack Reacher” was played by Tom Cruise in two films, “Reacher” and “Jack Reacher: Never Go Back”.
However, Child once said that Tom Cruise’s height cannot perfectly restore the original book. After all, Jack Reacher in the book is 6 feet 5 inches (about 1.95 meters) tall and weighs between 210 pounds and 250 pounds (95-113 kilograms).
So, Amazon’s American TV version of “Reacher” is here, and it comes with Alan Ritchson, who is 1.88 meters tall, this big man with good looks and good skills.
Moreover, Alan Ritchson lived up to expectations, showing off his body from time to time in the play, and his every step stepped on the sexy beat, as well as the hearts of the audience.
He plays Jack Reacher, who is full of tough guys and has a gentle temperament. How can people not be tempted.
Jack, alone in the small town of Margrave, Georgia. No one knew who he was and no one knew him.
However, a murder occurs in the small town, and the prominent Jack is arrested on suspicion of murder.
Jack didn’t resist, didn’t arrest him, and he was quite calm against the policemen who used guns and loud voices to hide his panic.
After arriving at the police station, Jack knew that he was caught in a murder case.
However, he still did not panic.
He peeled away and analyzed the details of the murder case for the inspector in great detail. The subtlety of his analysis of the case makes it hard to believe that this big man has such a delicate ability to reason and judge.
However, the Inspector did not easily believe him. Then, the case soon took a turn.
With clues on the victim, the police found a man named Paul.
Paul was polite, took the initiative to invite the police to his home, and told the police that he was the murderer.
However, the inspector did not choose to believe him, even though Paul repeatedly emphasized that he was the murderer, and only arrested Paul together.
In the eyes of the police, both Jack and Paul are suspects. So, the two went to jail together.
In the prison, Jack, who is 1.95 meters tall, is obviously no one dares to move and no one dares to provoke him, and Jack seems to be a frequent visitor to the prison.
The weak Paul was different. As soon as he came to prison, he was spotted by a group of hungry men.
Will Jack come to the rescue? In short, this pair of CPs has been successfully formed.
Next is Jack’s exciting action scenes.
The big Jake is quick, accurate, and ruthless, punches to the flesh, and his fighting moves are smooth. He has never made a mistake and won’t suffer.
Especially in prison, his tough guy style is full of strength, and the play is unstoppable.
A magical detective ability shrouded the big man with a light of wisdom.
With the tough-guy crime-solving style, and the rhythm of the story, “Reacher” can always pull the cool point to the extreme, which is why the audience is so excited.
“Reacher” doesn’t have much depth or complexity, but it’s cool enough. Most of the audiences are watching the drama for these exuberant pleasures.
If you are too, then you can start to get into the pit, the whole season of “Reacher” has been completed.
