affleck portrayal of jack ryan can only be describe a one of the big casting mistake in all of hollywood history . do he really think he can fill in for harrison ford or even alec baldwin . yikes . as long a the american public will shell out their hard earn dollar to see affleck and hollywood will continue to produce this kind of tripe . don not people know good act from really bad . i guess it be just as well that affleck be associate with this clunker while good actor probably know to turn the role down . after hunt for red october and patriot game and this be a miserable followup to what i understand be a great tom clancy novel . it be tedious and boring and and amazingly and full of bad language and unlike it predecessor movie . in short and it stink . the script be terrible and the plot so unbelievably stupid that it be painful to watch . the special effect be laughable cgis . i have not read the novel and but i doubt very seriously it be as asinine a this screenplay be . skip this one .
