An elite Navy SEAL uncovers an international conspiracy while seeking justice for the murder of his pregnant wife in Tom Clancy's Without Remorse, the explosive origin story of action hero John Clark -- one of the most popular characters in author Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan universe. When a squad of Russian soldiers kills his family in retaliation for his role in a top-secret op, Sr. Chief John Kelly (Michael B. Jordan) pursues the assassins at all costs. Joining forces with a fellow SEAL (Jodie Turner-Smith) and a shadowy CIA agent (Jamie Bell), Kelly's mission unwittingly exposes a covert plot that threatens to engulf the U.S. and Russia in an all-out war. Torn between personal honor and loyalty to his country, Kelly must fight his enemies without remorse if he hopes to avert disaster and reveal the powerful figures behind the conspiracy.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Despite a commanding performance from Michael B. Jordan, Without Remorse fails to escape its outdated patriotic tropes and forced franchise place settings.

Audience Says

As formulaic as it is implausible, Tom Clancy's Without Remorse delivers the bare minimum as an action thriller -- and will leave Clancy fans particularly disappointed.

While it's no Hunt for Red October, this stripped-down, unapologetically retro thriller still gets the job done. Go to Full Review

B-
Without Remorse follows a compelling protagonist in a path of revenge through suspenseful, intense action sequences triggered by the usual cliches and storytelling formulas of the genre. Michael B. Jordan is the star of the show. Go to Full Review

Jordan sells it all with intensity and ferocity to spare. He leaves us wanting more which is a good thing considering the mid-credits scene we get. Go to Full Review

Frans B @FransB 4d Nothing wrong with Tom Clancy's work but the way this is interpreted, well, it leaves much to be desired. This woke bolschevick is really getting out of hand, so obvious it's hilarious. They are causing themselves to be even more of a laughing stock. The almighty Hollywood, shoving shit down our throats more and more. Anywhooo ... Capable cast, writing a bit wooden and story punctured. Some characters are so out of place like a neon sign in a dark library, pity. Much ado about nothing ... See more Travis M @TMorg007 Jul 10 Boring! I know Hollywood is struggling but come on, put some effort in please. Movies like this inspire me...to go cut the grass or watch a different movie. See more Richard M @Firedick Jul 10 I will be so glad when the age of woke is over. I made it as far in the movie until the line (by CIA director) "She". Plus, black female Lt Commander of the SEALS ? Please. I have no problem with diversity in these roles, but Hollyweird is over doing it, cramming their BS down our throats. Please start making movies again where we don't have to bite our lips in disbelieve. See more Samantha L. @Samantha.Henry.Diva Jun 9 LOVE Micheal B. Jordan but the story is a little lost in translation from book to film. See more Carlos S @clshep Jun 2 This movie is based on the Tom Clancy novel Without Remorse and unfortunately Hollywood got a hold of it and decided to "go woke" on it. In the book it appears to take place be in the late 70s and that it does not take place at present date. And the fact that they had black woman playing an officer with "The Teams" was an even bigger joke. I don't know why Hollywood not stick to the original story as it really is a good story and the book itself does a great job when it comes to describing BUD/S and The Teams. See more Nathan J. @NathanDirector May 22 Rated: 5.2/10 ⭐️ Keeping my Tom Clancy binge going. Wanted to love it, but it felt like a super generic action movie to me. What Worked: • Michael B. Jordan totally carries it with his physical intensity. • The action scenes looks slick and really kept my adrenaline up. • Jodie Turner-Smith gives the story the bit of heart I honestly needed. The Friction: • Predictable plot twists really dragged the momentum down for me. • It strips away the book’s complex politics for a standard payback flick. • Clunky dialogue made connecting with the side characters tough for me. The Verdict: Watch to see MBJ be a powerhouse. Skip if you want deep espionage thrills. See more Read all reviews
