Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Mark Dujsik (2,093) for Mark Reviews Movies (2,037) on 17 Jan 2014

Ryan can survive a world where any information one might need is a smartphone away but is doomed to be stuck in a Cold War mentality…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By William Bibbiani (788) for CraveOnline (813) on 17 Jan 2014

There is probably no denying that it's the worst Jack Ryan movie yet, excuses be damned…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 17 Jan 2014

While all involved talk a good game, this movie really is a bit of a toss-off, a disposable date movie to enjoy momentarily and then completely…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Eric Melin (822) for Scene-Stealers.com (667) on 17 Jan 2014

Pine brings Ryan to life as a real person -- one who gets in over his head and is actually nervous about it, instead of acting like a puffed-up…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Thegodfatherson (586) on 17 Jan 2014

Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit updates its Cold War hero for the modern world, but doesn’t give him a story original enough to warrant further…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Chris Hewitt (2,086) for St. Paul Pioneer Press (4,360) on 16 Jan 2014

Even if it does feel anonymous, it looks sleek and elegant, with glittering shots of New York and Moscow and a pace that never flags…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Matt Neal (458) for The Standard (252) on 16 Jan 2014

Does what it does reasonably well (but) it feels like dozens of other spy films and as a result is unlikely to linger long in the memory…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Dustin Putman (2,479) for TheFilmFile.com (2,314) on 16 Jan 2014

An example of exceedingly efficient filmmaking and storytelling, getting the job done in a brisk 106 minutes even as the picture isn't really…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By David Medsker (361) for Bullz-Eye.com (1,091) on 16 Jan 2014

My wife's take: This is the first Jack Ryan movie that didn't put me to sleep. She's hoping the studio will use that for the Blu-ray cover…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Kenneth Turan (2,323) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 16 Jan 2014

There is no shaking the feeling that Branagh and his cast are a kind of an espionage film B team, capable of mild diversion but nothing more…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Nell Minow (2,357) for Beliefnet (937) on 16 Jan 2014

Director Kenneth Branagh's biggest mistake was in the casting of the villain: Kenneth Branagh…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Jay Stone (286) for Canada.com (402) on 16 Jan 2014

The result is a wayward tone, fitting perhaps, for such an unformed hero. He'll probably be back, but there's no telling who might be playing him…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Jordan Adler (82) for We Got This Covered (2,391) on 16 Jan 2014

Exciting and elementary, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit is a perfunctory franchise starter that has the spirit, if not the substance, of early Clancy…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Linda Barnard (586) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 16 Jan 2014

The dialogue is quick and sharp and there are flourishes to make a spy movie lover smile: sleight-of-hand work and the exchange of a brown…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Sean O'connell (919) for CinemaBlend.com (1,378) on 16 Jan 2014

A solid-enough foundation has been laid, and pieces exist to keep Paramount and Pine in the Jack Ryan business for the immediate future…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By David Edelstein (2,124) for NPR (1,713) on 16 Jan 2014

The movie itself isn’t dull. It’s moderately stylish, moderately suspenseful, fun in patches. It hits its marks. But the setup lacks urgency…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 16 Jan 2014

This is moviemaking in a modular mode, an inspiration-free action adventure — with cheesy cinematography — that fills its modest running…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Bill Gibron (1,013) for Film Racket (579) on 16 Jan 2014

A perfectly serviceable cinematic statement…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 16 Jan 2014

A pleasingly old-fashioned piece [that] manages to deliver a couple of hours of cheekily retro, amusingly implausible spycraft…

Review of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)

By Tony Stamp (52) for Flicks.co.nz (982) on 16 Jan 2014

Endears simply by being a solidly put together thriller…
