Anyone watching Reacher?

It's good!

Yeah I liked it - replicates in TV form the disposable entertainment of the book.

Yellowjackets (Showtime) is airing on TV tonight.  Many people seem to like it a lot.  No streaming service has it in my country so linear viewing is the only solution.   Worth it ?

Friends of mine have been raving about Yellowjackets and demand that I watch it...I haven't yet.

I took-in, "The Power of the Dog" on Netflix tonight cause I saw it was nominated for an Oscar. What a waste of 2 hours. Beautiful scenery and Benedict Cumberbatch couldn't save this film with no real plot, no action, humor, or suspense. A slight kick at the end came way too late make it worth the wait. 4 Outta 10, and I'm being kind here.  :coolsmiley:

The wife and I liked Reacher. She had read the books, so she was pretty into it.

While I liked it and would recommend it....it kind of reminded me of a super-hero movie. Or, one of those old Schwarzenegger flicks. Reacher is basically a one-man army. So I found it hard to take too seriously.  I'd say 7 out of 10, my wife would go higher...but probably only because Reacher walks around without a shirt at least once in every episode.

Can you give a one sentence, elevator pitch for Reacher?

No.  Because no one is as cool as BA.

Don't watch any of Mr. T 'music' videos or you might change your mind.

Not only do I have every single copy of the Mister T and the T Force...SIGNED by the man himself, but I have the original VHS of the following that I "won" on Ebay...
