Review of by Guy B — 29 Jan 2017

Vince Flynn has managed to spend the last decade and a half of his life creating a character and book series that the world fell in love with.

It took Hollywood less than two years after his tragic death to steal his characters names. I say steal because I doubt that then late Mr. Flynn would have sat still while they took his book title and character names and then created a script that in absolutely no way resembled the plot in his loved book. It is shameful and opportunistic of Hollywood to pull these kinds of tactics. All associated with this film should hang their heads for taking advantage of a mans death to abuse his life's work. Vince Flynn was an American patriot who after medical conditions stopped him from joining the U.S. Marines used his talents to create a book series that spoke to his patriotic soul. Lets see if Hollywood at least follows that or if they use it to make a statement against our government.
