Reacher Season 2 review: Action-packed and fun-filled

"Reacher Season 2 has a heart-breaking twist, but is a must-watch for all action fans. Streaming now on Amazon Prime."

Lee Child's 2007 novel, Bad Luck and Trouble, the 11th book in the Jack Reacher series, has always held a special place in the hearts of fans. However, there is one particular reason why I have never returned to this novel. The reason for not rereading this addictive, rocket-paced thriller is the tragic death of one of the character's dogs, Maisie. When the announcement was made that Season 2 of Reacher would be based on Bad Luck and Trouble, I hoped the celluloid Maisie would make it. Spoiler alert -- she does not.

The season introduces a new storyline that quickly draws the audience in. Drifter extraordinaire and ex-MP, Jack Reacher, is minding his own business when he receives a coded message from his former master sergeant and present high-flying security consultant, Frances Neagley. The message informs him of the death of one of his former team members, Calvin Franz, and the disappearance of three others from the elite 110th MP Special Investigations unit. Reacher, along with his team, sets out to crack this mystery and bring justice to those responsible.

The action sequences are breathtaking, and the central mystery provides enough twists and turns to keep the audience engaged. However, it is the banter between the characters that adds an extra layer of enjoyment to the show. Reacher finally acts on his feelings for Dixon and rethinks his lifestyle choices, while Ritchson's portrayal of Reacher is both captivating and nuanced.

The show also features callbacks to previous novels and characters, making it a treat for die-hard Jack Reacher fans. With its compelling storyline and engaging characters, Season 2 of Reacher has everything fans could ask for in a bingeable show. Moreover, the show has already been renewed for a third season, making it an early Christmas gift for fans.

In conclusion, Reacher Season 2 is a must-watch for fans of the series. With its compelling storyline, engaging characters, and breathtaking action sequences, it is sure to keep audiences on the edge of their seats. So, grab some popcorn and get ready to enjoy the thrilling ride that is Reacher Season 2, streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
