"Reacher 4"

★★★ (3 out of 4)

If you’re like me and got hooked on Season 1 of “Reacher” on Prime Video and then drifted away in Season 2 when the show began losing its connection to the Jack Reacher books by Lee Child, you’re in luck. Season 4 brings the mojo back, as does Alan Ritchson in the role of Jack Reacher, a former U.S. Army Military Police Major who left active service and now lives as a drifter, traveling across the country with almost no possessions—just a folding toothbrush, an ATM card, and a passport.
