Review of Tom Clancy's Without Remorse (2021) by Unclewillard — 30 Apr 2021

A boring action flick with "diversity." That's literally it. A female SEAL Team Leader? I'm not saying it can't happen, but it flies in the face of current policy. To date, there hasn't been a female service member that has made it through SEAL Training. Not to say it won't happen, I think it will eventually, but in that environment, just being on the team is an achievement, even though you would be the greenest operator. Team Lead? You need a lot of experience to achieve that in what is one of the toughest, if not the toughest, job in the military. No amount of political correctness can take the place of years of operational experience, so to push this **** totally dissipates any credibility this movie could have. The book was great. Clark is an indelible character in the Clancy universe, and to throw that out the window to create this one off action movie is a disservice to the franchise and the character. If they idea is to push for another Clancy show, like the Jack Ryan series, around the Rainbow Six books, they dropped the ball.

Edit: Jodi Turner-Smith can NOT act.
