Hated the car chase, I really wish action movies would stop doing them all the time.
Werner Herzog's German accent was really out of place, seeing as how he was supposed to be Russian...
The entire plan the bad guys thought up was probably the most ludicrous of any plan I have ever seen from a good movie.
I liked the realistic fight scenes. I love when the stunt guys don't look like they are waiting for their queue to be hit. I also like that they all seemed to be in real pain after being hit, even Jack Reacher.

huh! the car chase will never leave action movies. there has to be a chase of some sort in every action movie!
Herzog looked creepy enough for his german accent to be complained about from americans, we dont care. accent is an accent. hes german or russian, probably the bad guy mastermind...
agree on the b.a. fighting scenes though, also an important thing to have in action movies.
nowadays i rarely see action movies with poor fighting, only see it in tv anymore

i mean i understand that, because i mean a car chase is only as good as a good fighting scene. its got to have quality. and since its every action movie there has to be a unique trait about it. and i thought Jack Reacher nailed it. there may have been too much close ups of their faces while driving which i do hate, (i dont want to see their reactions i want to see some driving!) but at the end of the chase was so good to me. just gets out of the car lets it roll and the civilians hide him before he hops on the bus. i loved it
I know. But they probably figured that if we can get past a Reacher who's about 9" shorter than the character, then we'll overlook his usual inept driving ability.
