Tom Cruise is Jack Reacher - a stoic, ice-cool drifter and former military investigator engrossed in a case involving an army-trained assassin. Co-stars Rosamund Pike, Robert Duvall and Werner Herzog as Reacher's nemesis. Based on Lee Child’s novel One Shot, from writer/director Christopher McQuarrie (The Usual Suspects).
When a sniper takes five lives with six shots, all evidence points to the suspect in custody. On interrogation, the suspect claims his innocence and offers up a single note: "Get Jack Reacher." So begins a chase for the truth, pitting the ruthless Reacher - teamed with a young defense lawyer (Pike) - against an unexpected enemy with a skill for violence and a secret to keep.

Variety
Variety"A superior thriller, with Cruise and McQuarrie slotting together like a bullet in a clip. Like Reacher on the firing range, the aim isn’t always true – but the misses are fractional."

Total Film
Total Film"The self-confident, supercompetent Reacher is a character Mr. Cruise could play in his sleep, which is pretty much what he does."
