If you are a fan of Ton Cruise in his version of Jack Reacher…you really need to watch this. They do great job of emulating the intent, however for me this series was way better. Easy to binge with an addiction of wanting to know whats coming next, that will keep you coming back to watch all episodes……trust me - see the ratings above!

It it intense, yes - Is it violent, absolutely - does it have humor, you can count on it! The cast is solid and the villains weren't as good as some other shows, but they sure did some over the top evil things.

For me this series moved at a brisk pace, right down to the final scene. It’s a tight action series and very watchable. I binged it in a day and, I'll probably do the same if they come out with a second series...

Oh and BTW…..it was great seeing a show in 2022 that's void of politics…….Enjoy!
