As for Cruise in the role... I haven't read the books and know nothing of Reacher, but I generally don't buy in to the author's physical description of the character unless its integral to the character. Playing the part is more about attitude, IMO.
Frankly, I don't watch any movie that portrays Tom Cruise as a tough guy. It's a joke. Watching that munchkin 1 punch KO people left and right is so far beyond believable that it turns his action films into a comedy.

He's never been believable as a tough guy except to people who don't know what tough is. He's a primped up wimp. It radiates from him.
