At the start I wanted to switch it off, as it seemed like complete nonsense. It did grow on me a little, but it remains a average movie at best.
Felt like this sacrificed everything for pace and excitement. Reacher is always watchable and his character is funny. Fun to watch. Instantly forgotten when the credits roll though.
Not sure what Disney were thinking. It looks fake, the story is boring and the script, including the way its delivered, is boring and strange.

My first time at Monster Jam, which took place at Zurich’s Hallenstadion. The format consists of four events, with the audience judging the drivers through a web app. Just after the interval, there was also a motorbike event featuring plenty of airtime.
It was thoroughly entertaining, and the time flew by. Grave Digger was the overall winner, but Sparkle Smash provided the best visual moment of the day when it showered the arena with confetti.
Complimentary earplugs were provided, and the fumes weren’t particularly noticeable despite the event taking place indoors. I’m not sure whether another show would feel too similar, but it was definitely worth experiencing at least once.
