Jack Reacher: Never Go Back is directed by Edward Zwick and features Tom Cruise returning to the Jack Reacher role, and teams up with Cobie Smulders to clear their names.
I like the first Jack Reacher, it's a fun action thriller with some good action scenes, a great car chase, a very powerful opening scene and a plot to hold it together. Never Go Back was fun while I was watching it but, just like The Magnificent Seven remake, it is very forgettable. I can't tell you the plot, the villain and what happens in the middle of the film.
Tom Cruise is good as always, but his characters unlikableness, something which I liked about the first one, is toned down here. Partially because of the writing, but also because of a side plot about a girl who may or may not be his daughter.
In Short: JR:NGB is enjoyable at the time but completely forgettable.
