“Jack Reacher: Turn never back” is the sequel nobody wanted, to the movie no one really remembers anything in particular.
With it basically has Tom Cruise decided to deceive his every second-annual “Mission Impossible”-fairy tales for an escapade with Jack Reacher: Militærdetektiven as in Lee Childs books are two feet tall, blond muscle man, and as the movie is… well, Tom Cruise.
The first movie, about than small forglemmelig, was an intense and effective actionthriller, with an exciting plot, brilliant action and an immensely cool villain – played by director and cult figure of Werner Herzog.
“Repent, never to return” is his predecessor’s rake contrary: the Plot is lousy, actionscenene completely on the level and villain unlikely deaf. All this in a film that, on paper, strictly speaking, should have been better than its predecessor.
Why? Because the director this time named Edward Zwick.
Edward hvemforno’, do you think? Well: If I were to mention “Glory”, “Legends of the Fall”, “Blood Diamond”, “The last samurai” wouldn’t it just been a restatement of genuinely strong dramafilmer you by all means should see, but also the points under “experience”section of the Zwicks CV.
he walks spend their time on a film with Cruise, should be enough to salt popkornet to any film geek. The problem is just that nice little “Turn never to return” feels genuine, or, for that matter popkornvennlig.
instead the second round of the “Jack Reacher” a shockingly sentimental prune: Dialogue is clean brekningsmiddel, the action is built on the gåsehudframkallende spenningsstoffet military bureaucracy is known to be (in no time), and the film’s subsequent thematic fields of the united states superior sovereignty as the world leader of military power is at best nationalist – in the worst case directly creepy.
Jo, and the above mentioned I that all the characters are kjipe stereotypes and that the film is a total sulteforet on something borderline frivolous?
Jack Reacher is touring still the country with its nationwide detektivvirksomhet, and operates around restlessly looking for new kriminalnøtter to crack. He finally gets something to take on when he suddenly stands accused of murder, even of their former employers in the u.s. military.
down in komplottavløpet drags his major and kjæresteemne Susan Turner, who is accused of espionage by the same dark colonel who stands foremost for the inquisition against Reacher.
is not better of the bad guys in this movie, like those in the previous one, has hired a flintskallet assassin to take Reacher and the women his death. The last woman is also a 15-year-old girl, who Reacher may have a biological relationship.
Yes, it sounds perhaps a little exciting, this one here. And could even have been it, though Zwick and manuskollegene Richard poor parts and Marshall Herskovitz had told the story in a logical and interesting way. In short: They have chosen a different approach.

to have someone To root on had also been preferable. In the place are the initially humørsyke Reacher (read: Tom Cruise on autopilot) by two, for a mannemann as Reacher i.e., beyond frustrating kvinnemennesker.
the Worst is the attempt to portray a teenager: the Film’s 15-year-old alibi alternate between being tough in the face to sytete and vulnerable as soon as the voltage level exceeds the resting heart rate. The adults militærmajoren have lot of emotions and stuff like that Reacher does not understand so much of, and speaking as a wandering vervekampanje.
Why women in action movies so often be ferdigdetonerte hormonbomber?
Summary: “Repent, never back” is a two hours long inconsistent cliche of an action movie. All Edward Zwick movies do not tend to be. Combined with action scenes that do not keep the level from the last time, one begins to wonder whether or not Jack Reacher had done well to follow the advice in the own title: Never returned.
