I like Ritchon as Reacher. He fits the character very well. I liked season one although I was very disappointed that they pulled the storyline into our timeline instead of keeping it in the nineties. No computers and no cellphones made Reacher more elusive. Season 2 went downhill very fast. I finished it but it was not good. In this season the difference in era became very apparent. In a time with computers and cellphones it is just stupid to sent a message via bankaccount. Wat was a cool trick in the pre-cellphone era, was shoehorned into the series ( just one of the examples, just as Reacher carrying a passport).

I quit watching S3E1 within 5 minutes. I'm sure people will like it but it has nothing to to with Reacher from the books. To each his own but I'll be skipping this one. What a shame!!!

Interesting story, very nicely filmed ( high contrast/ desatuarated imagery), decent acting all around, nice battlescenes but nothing you haven't seen done before ( and better done), nice looking leadactors.... but the movie is way to long... it would have benefited greatly from some sharp editing. It could have been easily 30 min shorter en much the better for it. I caught myself glanzing at my watch a couple of times ... To many unneccesary long scenes and other scenes could have benefited from from some added time

All in all ok but not great and certainly not a sensation ( even by Dutch standards)
