Jack Reacher - It's just all so wrong

Can't believe it - it's all wrong - size, prettyness (TC isn't attractive to me but JR is supposed to be rough in a Clive Owen kinda way!), voice - sounds like a little girl with a sore throat - JR is supposed to sound rough, surly and masculine.

Lee Child has IMO sold out - Clive Owen, that what his name Winchester bloke (althugh a bit young) - there must be a million other men who could make a better stab at it than La Cruise

I really can't see Tom cruise as jack reacher Sad still can't wait to see the movie though Smile

Hugh Jackman
Gerard Butler

Are both nearer the size of JR

You are right, and there have been other threads lamenting the same thing.
I have an excellent imagination, but this was a stretch too far!
Even Wikki agrees : Reacher is 6' 5" tall (1.96m) with a 50-inch chest, and weighing between 210 and 250 pounds (100?115 kg).

Oh yes, that brings TC instantly to mind.

Tom Cruise is NOT Jack Reacher. Oh God.
