Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit

TRUST NO ONE.

jackryanshadowrecruitYoung Afghanistan War veteran Jack Ryan (Chris Pine) is recruited by the CIA to work covertly in a Wall Street company, but suddenly the analyst is turned into an operative and sent to Moscow on a mission. A reboot of Tom Clancy’s character that tries to turn Jack Ryan into Jason Bourne. Kenneth Branagh lacks the skills to do it in an exciting way, and without a genuine interest in security politics that formed the basis of Clancy’s novels, there is no point in using the name “Jack Ryan”. Never dull, but desperately mediocre.

2014-U.S. 105 min. Color. Widescreen. Directed by Kenneth Branagh. Screenplay: Adam Cozad, David Koepp. Cast: Chris Pine (Jack Ryan), Keira Knightley (Cathy Muller), Kevin Costner (William Harper), Kenneth Branagh (Viktor Cherevin), Nonso Anozie, Colm Feore… Peter Andersson. Cameo: Mikhail Baryshnikov.

Trivia: Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale were allegedly considered as Cathy.
