Wow. Now I really want to see this. Looks like a great flick and the start of a new franchise for Mr. Cruise.

Agreed. Looks great. Cruise divides a lot of people but I am one that doesn't really care about his beliefs or whatever. He's a great movie star with an incredible track record...looking forward to this.

Tom Cruise stars in Tom Cruise.

Tagline: Yep, it's another generic PG-13 star vehicle.

I like Cruise, but I'm bored of his action films, I'd rather watch Born on the Fourth of July or Eyes Wide Shut again than see him shoehorned into a role that doesn't suit him.

I also can't help laughing at how ridiculously miscast he is in this.

Called me a philistine but I havent read any of the Jack Reacher novels and for someone going in cold I really dont get what all the fuss is about with this film..!? I totally agree with Legion on this. It all looks completely run of mill, see it all before, 'Renegade', 'One Man' will do it his way to get justice. Sounds and looks like it could be a Steven Seagal film.. Am I alone in this?? Plus Tom looks no more 'in character' than any other film he's done recently. Not sure what people are getting excited about...

lee childs jack reacher is a man mountain with a certain look and build, at 50 cruise is the right age but he in my mind and many others is he is not jack reacher.the film looks good and from the trailer alone i would go and see it,the rumors are that it could be a franchise. i would of gone for tom hardy who would age well with the character and films

Casting Tom Cruise as "Jack Reacher" is a big mistake, how about Jim Caviezel (currently in "Person of Interest", CBS Thur.) he is 6'2' solid build, has the classic Reacher look and can act. Move over Cruise before you get your "Best actor of the current generation", ass kicked.

Wicked trailer, more interesting then the first one. Cool that Jai Courtney plays the bad guy. I agree that Jim Caviezel would fit the part nicely aswell cmtu1942. But I think this movie will be cool

Film looks like it could be quite good just a shame that Cruise has been cast as Reacher! Makes me want to laugh at how ridiculous he looks in the role everytime he's on screen. Poor poor casting and a sell out by Lee Child to get the film made!

I'll defo watch this as I'm a fan of Cruise, no he's not the person you image when you read the desription of Reacher but he puts everything he has into his roles and I'm looking forward to this immensly, do hope it's not 12a rated though, Taken 2 suffers due to that rating I feel.

Many suggest that Cruise is no Reacher. This trailer proves otherwise.
Looks to be an awesome thriller action.

Tom Cruise? As Jack Reacher? Have they read the books? All these thoughts went away when I saw the first trailer. TC (I hope) IS Reacher, even if he is about a foot short in all directions. I cannot wait to see this ...........

Ok being a fan of the books I'll admit I wasn't entirely impressed with the casting of Tom Cruise.But after seeing the first trailer I got of it,upon seeing the new,trailer I am now convinced that even the Cruiser's draw will not do anything help this pile of s*@t.Why do I react so badly you may think well without spoiling the film,there is a,major plot point revealed in the trailer that is vital to the story which changes the whole agenda of the story.Why do Hollywood insist on dumbing down these thrillers.If I was Lee Child I would distance myself from the project as far as I could!

Can't believe anyone thinks this looks even watchable. For a reacher story, there seems to be little actual action in the trailer, which suggests to me this is gonna be a toned down, family friendly action flick. Worse yet Tom Cruise is TERRIBLE as Reacher, not the slightest bit convincing as an utter badass. And the "I'm not a hero line"? Yes, it's factually correct, but Reacher would never say something like that, fuck it, he hardly says anything unless it's necessary.

This is gonna be a flick to avoid, which is a shame, cos i like Cruise usually. Ah well, guess i'll go back and rewatch Taken, looks like it's gonna be the closest I'll get to a Reacher flick.
