The book was different on this part. I believe if I recall correctly that Reacher shot at a tree trunk behind the target in the form of a letter. OG was like you missed the target, and Jack said look at the tree behind the target.
You may be getting it mixed up with the second book I believe. Where he is held prisoner and has a shooting competition with the head bad guy and it looks like he misses them all but on the tree behind he spells out something. In this film
@@MrCod7manhe spelled out the bad guys initials on the tree which as I recall was about another 50 yards past the target he was supposed to be shooting
This movie sucked. Wasn't anything like the second book and they did a huge crime casting 5'6 Tom Cruise as 6'5 Jack Reacher. Ruined the movie entirely for me but thankfully the TV show is now doing justice for Lee Child and the Reacher franchise.
Some good realisms here: a solid Remington 700, good optics, good shooting form. The bad: paper targets over steel backplate become absolutely shredded upon the very first shot from the bullet disintegrating & both zero hearing protection. Otherwise, not a bad scene.
@@johnnyman7709 Agreed. They were using soft foam ear plugs. You can occasionally see Cruises's in his left ear and Duval has shell casing sticking out of his, hard to see I know, that are certainly meant to indicate that that is how he is keeping his in place. More interesting is that after retrieving the target it is flipped 180 degrees so that first shot that was six inches to the right of center is now six inches to the left of center. To quote a different Reacher, "Details matter."
@@demonitecallisto that's not the problem, the problem is they keep using the same music again and again. RU-vid has thousands of no copyright sounds in their library, why not change it up a little?
I don't have a good explanation for the color changes in the paper, but the hole is on the right side in both shots, and the 9 is facing the same direction in both shots. So it looks to me like the paper is facing toward the camera rather than toward them in the last shot, which would put the hole on the correct side. Am I missing something?
For Snape, I would like to remind you of 2 things: 1 Dumbledore gave him a look. Said his name. Gave him a look, and said please. When this was done Dumbledore was not in a defensive posture. 2: when Snape said the spell, the flame (for lack of a better word) was not bright green. It was teal.
I like the way it plays in the book better. The gun range guy said he never forgets a shooting profile, ie the position the shooter lays in. I don't think he says in the movie how he recognized him.
Around our house he was just called Bobby. He portrayed Stalin in a movie my sister produced and One and Emmy award as line producer. Robert Duvall! Oh man what a career. I really enjoyed him in Young Lions
@AwesometownUSA lol dude im from Missouri. Weve been hunting from a very young age. Even shooting a bow with sights that are sighted in isnt super hard. Just line that shit up
Contrary to what majority say, TC was a good Reacher, the acting was spot on!!! He nailed the "phone" scene!!! Alan needs to up his acting, he may be PERFECT physically, but acting wise he needs to up his game!! Loved both of them though😎👍
I have read every single book in the Reacher series. Ive read most other spin off series by other authors. One of the best sideshow series is written by Karen Slaughter and her #1, first in her series and in my opinion it is her best book. Anyways back to Slaughter's work. Her first book and her "Tie In" with Jack (No Middle Name) Reacher is titled, "You Don't Know Jack"! The main character is a female fbi agent, running a small team trying to keep tabs on Reacher and make an arrest. If im remembering properly the "You Don't Know Jack " starts out around the time frame Child's Echo Burning.
@@mariaholman1407 saw one of the replies saying the acting was bad in the show. The acting was done how it needed to be because that’s how the character was in the book(s)
He did it like a human body. The triangle.. assassin style. two in the shoulders to disable and one in center mass to take out. Not sure if anyone knew that 🤘🔥
@@d3ltaohniner261 explain. Ur just mad, triggered and talking nonsense without anything else. Aka NOTHING. Maybe YOU'RE full of BS and projecting 🙄 I never said a "precision shooter" I said assassin. Read buddy 🙄🔥
Everyone complaining about the music... STOP LIKING THE CLIPS. The algorithm sees it as successful and keeps pushing it. 358k likes as of this comment is why you keep hearing that music everywhere.
Why is the cold bore shot on the right at first? Then, on the left when they are looking at it. FYI. The National rifle champs in 1953, were shooting groups this tight with iron sight M1 Garands.
@@Bullzeye1000yds 🏆. I thought so. I happen to know someone operating @ horn of africa before, back in the day. A specialist as well, retired, but still of good knowledge. Amazing stories nonetheless. Stay healthy 🍻
The only part of the scene they got right was him realizing it was Reacher, in the book he was offered warm ups and said he only needed one like a cold ass mf
After reading all Jack Reacher books,I find Lil Tommy kind-a short and not blonde. I noticed everyone in this version kind-a short,the TV series is pretty exact and not preposterous.
