Reacher

The reviews are now in for the second season of Amazon Prime Video’s acclaimed “Reacher” which launches on Friday and so far the verdict is stellar.
The series has already seen a jump on Rotten Tomatoes from last season, the title currently sitting at a perfect 100% (8.3/10) compared to the first season’s 92% (7.3/10). The new run is based on the eleventh book “Bad Luck and Trouble” in the Lee Child novel series.
The second season will see Reacher trying to uncover who is killing members of his former U.S. Army unit, the 110th MP Special Investigations. Reacher reunites with three of his former teammates (Maria Sten, Serinda Swan and Shaun Sipos), who begin to connect the dots in a mystery where the stakes get higher at every turn.


Here’s a sampling of quotes from reviews:
“Where the first season was more grounded in some sense of reality, this season feels like a genre playground, where Reacher operates like a flawless, unstoppable deity and the show is allowed to be as gratuitous, goofy, and bloody as it needs to be.” – Kyle Fowle, TV Guide
“A brawnier, funnier, and more potently entertaining season than its inaugural outing. No wonder Season 3 has already been greenlit.” – Amon Warmann, Empire Magazine
“While the investigative work is absorbing and the badinage lively enough, it boils down to the ultraviolence, which is relentlessly inventive and overblown.” – Gabriel Tate, Daily Telegraph
“[Ritchson’s] intimidating presence (and ability to lace it with mordant humor) goes a long way toward establishing this saga as one of the best things to happen to the beat-‘em-up genre in decades.” – Nick Schager, The Daily Beast
“This series is a rollicking success with its gonzo action, tight storytelling, and game cast. On almost all production levels too, from the art direction to editing, the series comes up aces.” – Jeff York, The Establishing Shot
“Reacher isn’t just one of Prime Video’s biggest original shows; it’s also one of its very best. Ritchson is at his very best and he’s surrounded by a stellar cast and crew that go to great lengths to create the action drama TV fans miss so dearly.” – Charlie Ridgely, ComicBook.com
“Lee Child has created a thinking person’s pulpy action hero for the ages, and in Season 2, Alan Ritchson has perfected his interpretation for readers and non-readers alike, yet again delivering one of the best TV shows of the year.” – Aaron Peterson, The Hollywood Outsider
“Unlike its predecessor which took a while to establish its premise, Reacher season 2 makes it clear from the get-go that this new mission is personal.” – Ana Dumaraog, Screen Rant
“Reacher is the series that stands as the “crème de la crème” of Dad TV, and Season 2 only helps cement its status. It’s not even a guilty pleasure; it’s just good television. – Nate Richard, Collider
