      Critics Consensus

      Jack Ryan's second season is both more refined and more predictable, doubling down on its espionage set-pieces while toning down its titular character's moral complexities to create a more straight-forward spy show. Read critic reviews

      Audience Reviews for Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan: Season 2

      • Apr 18, 2023
        Cenário de guerra e de espionagem perfeitas! Mas o que estragou foi o contexto venezuelano.
      • Apr 05, 2023
        Love Krasinski in the Office. He sucks in this.
      • Apr 01, 2023
        Somewhat interesting at moments but not really Jack Ryan. You know it's bad when Jack Ryan shoots into a street with civilians around trying to hit the bad guy. Not Jack Ryan at all
      • Mar 19, 2023
        A solid season with superb acting. I didn't rate this season as high as the first season because of personal preference. I like the plot of the first season more than this one but it's still very good.
      • Feb 24, 2023
        Still very exciting and entertaining, except with a bit of stupid decisions being made by Jack.
      • Feb 12, 2023
        Pacing was ok, but the story was a little predictable. But I still liked the main characters. What happened to the girlfriendfrom Season 1?
      • Jan 12, 2023
        First season was good but second season really step it up with a lot more action and really good story.
      • Jan 10, 2023
        Not as good as the first season but brought its own strengths and still worthy of a watch.
      • Jan 08, 2023
        Bareable. So disappointing after S1 was decent.
      • Jan 07, 2023
        On first watch this was an enjoyable continuation of the Jack Ryan series, with a refreshing location and interesting storyline. However as time has passed and watching the show from a more critical view, there are a few issues that prevent the second series from coming even with or eclipsing the first. The location is refreshing with some added travel to other locations, however a few of the plot points and set pieces in Venezuela do leave me wondering if I've accidentally switched over to Netflix's Narcos at some point - That probably isn't helped by actor overlap (Gen Ubarri). The main villain Reyes is believably evil and corrupt, however Max Schenkel feels like something ripped out of the Bourne universe and plopped in here, not to mention Jost and Bastos serving as added ‘henchmen' style villains with generic traits and patterns. I'm not convinced that Max wouldn't have just cut and run once he realised how badly the CIA was onto the whole scheme. The addition of Harri was welcome but in light of S3 not featuring her as a returning character, it feels like the show runners should avoid Jack having almost ‘Bond girl' esc accomplices who he romances with for one season never to be seen again. Jack again feels realistically vulnerable in this series, as does Greer and the SAD team members, though it was sad to see Matice leave. However I'll accept that in the interest of keeping the stakes real and allowing the addition of Mike's character, who starts off as the typical COS before showing a more complex side (good to see him return for S3). One of the biggest shames in this series is the ending and lack of real stakes in the villain's plan. The ‘super weapon' mining radar was extremely underwhelming and conclusion of the plot all being about mining resources feels spectacularly reserved for a series which begun on international terror plots. It almost feels as though they could have feasibly achieved their goal without blowing up a US senator and drawing even more attention to themselves. I never felt as though Jack had really uncovered the plot, more stumbled across it thanks to a series of coincidences and help. Greer's heart condition added some development to his character, however this seems to have been completely stricken from the record in season 3 with little lasting impact - leaving a rewatch of this season having him wheezing and collapsing (slowing down the story) for seemingly little consequence. Krasinski's performance is once again one of the standout good parts of the show, with real depth to his emotional arc and showing Jack as both vulnerable and intensely loyal. Near the end he becomes almost a man possessed, showing grit and intention season 1 teased, which carries through to season 3 nicely for character development. Overall I'd give it a watch, but mainly as a continuation of the story of Jack to get through to further seasons rather than for the plot alone.
