關於這部電影

This is the third film based on Tom Clancy's high-tech espionage potboilers starring CIA deputy director Jack Ryan. Harrison Ford, returning to the Ryan role after his first go-round in 1992's Patriot Games, is assigned to a delicate anti-drug investigation after a close friend of the President (a Reaganesque Donald Moffat) is murdered by a Colombian drug cartel. When Ryan discovers that the President's wealthy friend was in league with the cartel, the President's devious national security adviser (Harris Yulin) and an ambitious CIA deputy director (Henry Czerny) send a secret paramilitary force into Colombia to wipe out the drug lords. The force is captured and then abandoned by the President's lackeys. It falls to Ryan to enter Colombia and rescue them, aided only by a renegade operative named Clark (Willem Dafoe), with both his life and career on the line.

評分和評論

Very few movies are made like this anymore, it's actually believable! The main character is a government agent who doesn't possess parkour/ninja skills or superhuman strength. It also doesn't have over-the-top action scenes or nonsensical scripting. It's as if they actually used writers, instead of just locking special effect guys and stuntmen in a room with a sheet of paper and waiting 30 minutes. A great Movie for ADULTS.

This movie as well as patriot games was made for Harrison Ford as he shows his talent on the screen. Some of the best action sequences that I've seen and acting that can't be beat by a long shot by today's standards of movie directing. Truly a must watch!

Very much like the book. Harrison Ford took the character for his own. Not a dull moment.
