This movie brought back fond memories of Harrison Ford before he embarked on horrible films such as "The Firewall." Before he was known for his relationship with Calista Flockhart, Ford had been a rising star who were in action-packed thrillers such... Full review

Eh... it never gets me thrilled or excited. Far too much talk to work effectively as a thriller, and it's not engrossing enough to work as a drama. Ford is fine, but he made (by far) the two weakest Jack Ryan... Full review

Of all the Jack Ryan movies, Patriot Games is quite possibly the most "Hollywood" in nature; the film is well directed and acted as well as entertaining, but the story is a typical good-guy/bad-guy revenge tale. Where Red October had Alec Baldwin playing the very James Bond-like hero but with a larger scale film, Patriot Games is simpler in story. ... Full Review

Too bad Patriot Games remains my least favorite of the four Jack Ryan films. The movie gets a bit more interesting in its second half, and the climax offers some good drama, though it goes on far too long. Dialogue came across as natural and crisp ... Full Review

At little more than ninety minutes, the first third taken up with exposition and the final ten minutes with an epilogue and closing credits, the movie is too short to do much with characterization or conflict development. The drama is real and never glamorized, and the ending, thankfully, is not sentimentalized, but the difficulties the girls encounter are not particularly intense. ... Full Review
