Poster for the upcoming movie, based on the Tom Clancy Jack Ryanverse novel of the same title, starring Michael B. Jordan, to be released on Friday, April 30, 2021:
What timeframe in the Ryanverse? Could Krasinski make a cameo?

Liev Schreiber portrayed Clark in the "Sum of All Fears", which as a movie, was a total disaster, mainly due to Ben Affleck. Nonetheless, Clark had a significant role and took care of the bad guy in the end.The book didn't involve Ryan. It is a origin story of John Clark. Well mostly it w as a revenge story showing the complete badassery of John Clark that, IMO, has never really been well displayed in the films. The closest was Clear and Present Danger but even that felt off the mark. Clark is a legit don't fuck with this guy badass in the books.

Thank God this was a free movie
It was ok, but it seemed to jump around a lot
I wouldnt watch it again
This^
Though I might watch again to see if I could get it better
Yeah this.Maybe I was just nostalgic for the book, but I was pretty disappointed in this. The book had its great parts and its bad parts, but the movie didn't do much to capture any of the source material ideas in any meaningful way. Changing it up for the modern era is a cool move, but what they did with it wasn't real impressive and not real meaningful, I thought. A lot of it didn't seem particularly realistic, either, but I won't go into any spoiler material here. I'd call it 4/10, at the most.
As bad as it was, it was infinitely better than a Bruce Willis one I watched called Breach. I still have a foul taste in my mouth from that one.
I almost watched that last night... I clicked on, "play" and went 30 seconds into the opening credits and turned off. Guess I am glad I didn't watch it huh?
I still smell the stink in my recroom.
