Jack Reacher is back and this time on the small screen. He is also a lot taller and packed with more muscle.
This is more the Jack Reacher as described in the books rather than the more diminutive Reacher played by Tom Cruise in the movies.
The first episode sees Reacher (Alan Ritchson) getting arrested in the small town of Margrave in Georgia.
The police suspect him for the killing of a man that happened earlier in the morning. The trouble is Reacher just arrived by bus and walked to a diner. He wanted to find out more about the blues singer Blind Blake.
The story is based on Killing Floor, the debut novel by Lee Child. Ritchson gets to show his physical presence in several fight scenes in prison.
It is not all brawn as he displays to chief detective Oscar Finlay hsi deduction skills. Reacher was a former military policeman.
This is a good introductory episode. Some of the writing is perfunctory, some of it was too silly such as when female officer threatens Reacher that she could kick his butt.
By the end, this is a mystery that becomes personal to Jack Reacher.
