Saw it last night and wasn't impressed. Film did not focus on Reacher the man but more on Tom Cruise beating up guys half his age.

And to get around the age thing, the movie states Reacher attended West Point and retired from the Army which would make him about 42 when he retired. As I recall from the books, he only spent 10 years in the Army then resigned. Hmmm.
