Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014) by Filmgrinder S — 20 Jul 2014
Technically strong and stylish with a good performance from Costner, although the plot is poorly developed and the detective work is improbable and almost entirely based on lucky guesses. Because of this, I really felt cheated out of half the suspense and it did nothing to give the impression that Jack Ryan was a particularly talented analyst.
The film is fun, near-mindless action, but really is not worthy of the Jack Ryan franchise.
