Looking to fulfill a promised date from Major Turner (Smulders) who has assisted on a few of his assignments, retired major Jack Reacher (Cruise), now a nomad mercenary of justice stops on the military grounds to take her out for that date only to find that she has been imprisoned. Following up on his suspicions that she was wrongly jailed he realized that the plot is thicker than being issued and that she is targeted to be murdered. So he aids in helping her escape being jailed and killed so that they can find out who is behind the corruption conspiracy and to clear her name. But they are being hunted by a relentless and merciless assassin (Heusinger), also a former soldier who learns that Reacher may have a rebellious teen daughter named Samantha (Yarosh) and he intends to use her to get to Reacher and Turner to complete his mission of murder.
Reel Talk:
This is the follow up movie to the 2012 hit that also starred Tom Cruise as the mysterious drifting former military man that crusades for justice for those who need his help. Just as the first film he is into kicking some serious bad guy booty but this time he has help with Cobie Smulders as Major Turner who may be a beautiful woman but willing to fight like a man to prove she is a military leader. Patrick Heusinger as the assassin also proves to be a worthy opponent for the normally tough Reacher. The movie is full of action and very entertaining, so it is certainly one that you can check out.
