There's a reason Tom Cruise remains one of the most lucrative action stars of the day despite the bad rap he's getting for his association with the Church of Scientology: he is one of the best action stars.

The official trailer for his latest movie, “Jack Reacher,” is finally out, a couple of days after the Russian-language version leaked online.

We'll stand by our belief that this still has certain tones from Nicolas Winding Refn's “Drive” in here, particularly the muted colors and the idea of presenting a whole different side of the “hero.”

As Cruise himself says in voiceover, he (Jack Reacher, that is) is not a hero, but he is dangerous because he only wants justice and has nothing to lose.

“Jack Reacher” will be out on December 21 so check out the trailer to see if it's something you'll be looking forward to.
