Yes they copy that shot from Once Upon A Time In The West. And of course the 'bullet proof vest' from A Fistfull Of Dollars. Better hope he doesn't go for a head shot!

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

Re-watching this right now before hitting the cinema later tonight for the sequel ...
Never read the books but I know Reacher is supposed to be more like The Rock than The Scientologist, but I really enjoyed this when I saw it first time round.
Rosamund Pike never looked more beautiful either

Adventures of Sherlock Holmes With Jeremy Brett as the man. and will now always be that man, such was his performances. David Burk does a very good Watson too although I preferred Edward Hardwicke . Just the dvd versions, not as shown, the BluRay
