Synopsis:
The third installment in the cinematic incarnation of Tom Clancy's CIA analyst Jack Ryan and the second starring Harrison Ford, this follow-up to Patriot Games is a more complex, rewarding, and bolder film than its predecessor. Ford returns as Ryan, this time embroiled in a failed White House buy to wipe out a Colombian drug cartel and cover up the mess. The script, by Clancy and John Milius (Red Dawn), has an air of true adventure about it as Ryan places himself in harm's way to extract covert soldiers abandoned in a Latin American jungle. There are a couple of remarkable set pieces expertly handled by Patriot Games director Phillip Noyce, especially a shocking scene involving an ambush on Ryan's car in an alley. The supporting cast is superb, including Willem Dafoe as the soldiers' leader, Henry Czerny as Ryan's enemy at the CIA, Joaquim de Almeida as a smooth-talking villain, Ann Magnuson as an unwitting confederate in international crime, and James Earl Jones as Ryan's dying boss.This thriller is chock full of action, intrigue, double-dealing and much more, with Jack Ryan battling bad men inside the U.S. government who seem to have tenuous ties to the Cali drug cartel. Ryan gets hoodwinked by very important members of the President's inner circle and finds himself in the middle of covert U.S. military operations that he swore under oath would never take place. The President wants to get even with the drug people who wipe out a close friend and his family and attempts to seize millions in drug profits, which is very un-presidential. The film's plot is complicated but also full of exciting twists and turns involving political maneuvering, murders, computer theft, surveillance, assassination attempts and botched rescue missions. The entire cast is solid, with Harrison Ford as the stalwart CIA operative who heroically tries to right the wrongs of his own government. Joaquim de Almeida is great as the legal advisor to the Cali hoods, and Henry Czerny is chilling as the compromised CIA Deputy Director. Willem Dafoe, with his barracuda smile, is also good in a brief role as a Colombian-based CIA contact.
