Jack Reacher
The law has limits. He does not.
Directed by Christopher McQuarrie
Produced by Paramount Pictures, Skydance Media
A taut crime thriller built on investigation and physical confrontation, where a lone ex-military operative uncovers conspiracy beneath a seemingly straightforward mass shooting.
One morning in an ordinary town, five people are shot dead in a seemingly random attack. All evidence points to a single suspect: an ex-military sniper who is quickly brought into custody. The interrogation yields one written note: 'Get Jack Reacher!'. Reacher, an enigmatic ex-Army investigator, believes the authorities have the right man but agrees to help the sniper's defense attorney. However, the more Reacher delves into the case, the less clear-cut it appears. So begins an extraordinary chase for the truth, pitting Jack Reacher against an unexpected enemy, with a skill for violence and a secret to keep.
