I dunno...I've read all the books, and I watched the trailer. There was not a single thing I recognized as being from the books, other than the character name (hell, Reacher's car [huh?!?] has more screen time in the trailer than Reacher).

That being said, I'll probably catch it on DVD at some point, just because Cruise is capable of good action movies. I'll just try very hard not to think about the source material and what might have been.

And if he manages to trash it...it won't be the first time a book/character I loved got raped by Hollywood. Anyone remember the Edgar-award winning book Fletch and the idiot Chevy Chase vehicle it got made into?
