Clear and Present Danger

To say you dislike a film like Clear and Present Danger because it lacks substance is like saying you don't like The Lion king because it has Lions in it . It's a Tom Clancy novel and that's what you should expect from something he wrote , so just sit back and enjoys and that's exactly what I did .

Harrison Ford plays CIA Analyst Jack Ryan who is drawn into an illegal war fought by the US government against a Colombian drug cartel.

Despite its many faults , I enjoyed this film . It's ram packed full of action , including massive explosions and a death toll that would rival a small war . Harrison for does what Harrison for does well . He pulls faces to suit the scene without breaking much of a sweat and that's what the public likes about him in the eighties and nineties and still do to a certain extent .

It has dated quite badly . The IT is hilarious and the fashions are a little cringeworthy but I have to say I had a fun two hours watching this .
