A great thriller. Even though I'd read the book years ago, this kept me on the edge of my seat -- the two hours flies by given the tight, intense plot. Of course, like all the Jack Ryan stories, the "one man saves the world" plot is kind of over the top! Yet, if you take that in stride, it's a superbly acted film. Morgan Freeman is fantastic, and Ben Affleck makes a very good "young" Ryan -- though the story would be much more believable had Ryan been older, as he was in the original novel. Those who haven't read the book may enjoy the movie more than those who have, because this film is significantly different from the original novel. There are at least 3 major plot changes -- the worst being a total displacement of the series' chronology. This becomes a PREQUEL to the other Ryan stories / films, while the original novel has this as a SEQUEL to movies like Hunt for Red October, Clear & Present Danger, etc. And at times that left me pretty confused. I still enjoyed the film, but the changes were somewhat frustrating. Overall, I'm glad to have added this to my collection. The movie is well done. It's just not a very faithful adaptation of the book.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Even though a few years passed from its release, this title still retains a lot of entertaining power. Nice and well structured plot and extremely appealing characters. Tension is created and maintained throughout the story. Right amount of action and well balanced plot development make this title a strong contender to keep you busy after dinner. Definitely a must see for this genre.

This is an overlooked gem. Filled with tension and great performances all around. Only downside is it’s slow start setting everyone up. But all in all a very good Jack Ryan film.

This Tom Clancy movie has a lot of similarities as to what is going on today in the world

The movie has great acting, great action and is down-to-the-wire exciting. Some of language is unnecessarily harsh since the movie would have been equally good without it. While all movies are never as good as the book, this one goes too far away from the book's plot. The other Tom Calncy movies follow the book more closely and are none-the-worse for that. eBay is a good place to buy movies since you can often buy them for less than the cost of a nation-wide chain movie rental store.
Enjoyed the movie, played perfectly.
