The second in the Jack Ryan series. Enjoyable, but definitely not as good as Red October. I did enjoy Harrison Fords portrayal a lot more, enjoyed that there was more focus on Ryan being an analyst, but I feel like the last chapter was somewhat weak. The pay off wasn't very good, and it got stupidly hollywood in the last 10 minutes which I thought was a big shame.
There was also a lot more suspension of disbelief needed in this one, it was nowhere near as groundedÂ
I'm glad I've seen it though - I watched the start of it years ago and never got around to coming back forit. |
