The Jack Ryan franchise arguably reached its peak with it's first two offerings in the early 90s. Sean Connery, Alec Baldwin, James Earl Jones, and of course Harrison Ford ensure that Tom Clancy's more technical stories get a healthy dose of humanity in these John McTiernan and Phillip Noyce films. Jason and Ryan celebrate the characterization, the espionage, and the thrills, all while contemplating the difference a few decades makes in the genre.
