In this new film, Jack Ryan is reluctantly thrust back into the world of espionage when an international covert mission unravels a deadly conspiracy, forcing him to confront a rogue black-ops unit, and the clock is ticking. Operating in real time with lives on the line and the threat escalating at every turn, Jack reunites with battle-tested CIA operative Mike November (Michael Kelly) and former CIA boss James Greer (Wendell Pierce), their combined experience the only edge they have against an enemy who knows their every move. Backed by an unlikely new partner -- razor-sharp MI6 officer Emma Marlowe (Sienna Miller) -- Jack and the team navigate a treacherous web of betrayal, facing a past they thought was long put to rest -- making this the most personal, high-stakes mission any of them have ever faced.

Krasinski executive produced and co-wrote the screenplay but doesn’t seem to have been very interested in character development or meaningful dialogue.

[Krasinski] makes you care whether Ryan can get out of pickle after pickle, enough to make you wish there will be another Ryan standalone film in the future.

2/4

John Krasinski can do anything, except turn the livewire CIA operative he played for four TV seasons into something other than a pale shadow of his former self trying to pass muster in an ill-conceived two-hour movie.

The largely entertaining affair marches to a peppier beat than the show, which can become bogged down despite its seasons being relatively short in terms of episodes.

I’m a sucker for both John Krasinski and Wendell Pierce, but there’s no escaping the by-the-numbers blah-ness of Jack Ryan: Ghost War.

It’s a thriller sans a thrill.

Very boring and generally unwatchable, despite some big name actors. I found the main actor guy's speech pattern distracting as he seemed to talk with his lower teeth and it took me out of the movie. The script was poorly written.

This Jack Ryan movie was great. John Krasinski, Wendell Pierce, Sienna Miller, Michael Kelly, Max Beesley, JJ Feild, and the rest of the cast did a great job in this movie. The plot of the movie was action-packed, thrilling, and dramatic. It's about taking down an elite combat group that forms an alliance with terrorists because they were betrayed by their own government. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime.It's worth watching. Don't listen to the bad reviews this movie has gotten, those people have terrible tastes in movies.

Cannot finish. It is our second attempt. So boring and underdeveloped. The dialogue and action are incredibly trite and predictable.

This movie is written like babies first spy movie. "They predicted our every move and distracted us so we could blow up this person instead of that person" like OK so you can just blow up the most important spy in the world just because one swat team is on a mission?? That doesnt make any sense. Stupid movie with obtuse writing and dialogue hitting all the beats like it was written with the intent to have as many tropes as possible And oh my god just shoot him

I started watching John Krasinski on Jack Ryan rules from the series to movie. He handles the character well. The movie is so great as a fictional story. I hope he will continue making more Jack Ryan novel story in the movie. (It's is almost like James Bond franchise). The thrilled, the story, and the action, I Love It All. Keep the good work. 👍 Count me in if there will be new release, I am will surely will support it.

I've watched more engaging AI slop. Poor story line, poor acting, relying on the franchise for sales.
