Review of Patriot Games (1992) by Steve G — 23 Dec 2015

"Patriot Games" is a superb action film of 1992. The plot to "Patriot Games" is about a man named "Jack Ryan" portrayed by "Harrison Ford" who stops a local act of terrorism only metres away from his wife and daughter, later "Jack" kills one of the terrorists.

A terrorist named "Sean Miller" portrayed by "Sean Bean" swears to get revenge on "Jack Ryan's" family. And "Jack Ryan" must do everything he can to protect his loved ones.

The opening to this movie shows "Jack Ryan" being a typical family man. The scene is good and shows how the audience should realise how "Jack" is a good person. The middle of the movie is quite intense; some scenes could've been better.

The movie's climax is good, the setting feels real but the setting could've been changed. The ending to this movie was dumb it basically said "Screw You" to the audience. The plot to the movie is great, the movie feels real and is exciting.

The acting in this movie is superb, "Harrison Ford" is an incredible actor and in "Patriot Games" he does a stunning job. "Sean Bean" is another stunning actor in "Patriot Games".

The music in this movie is suspenseful and thrilling at the right moments. "James Horner" who composed the music for "Patriot Games" did a splendid job at creating suspense and thrill.

"Patriot Games" is filmed very well; the action scenes are filmed well but could've been shot better. Back in 1992 C.G.I. was a newly introduced topic and most movies used this new concept, the special effects in this movie are terrific; there are no scenes that C.

G.I. is present. "Phillip Noyce" did a splendid job at using special effects. If you are a person who enjoys "Tom Clancy's" stories then I recommend you watch "Patriot Games" as it has superb acting, thrilling music and great visuals.

Although the movie is not perfect it has some issues, which are shots being done better, and a much better ending. I give 1992's "Patriot Games" an 8/10.
