Australian director Phillip Noyce (Dead Calm) made his Hollywood debut with this smashing thriller which is also the best of the Tom Clancy novel adaptations. Harrison Ford stars as Jack Ryan who on a leave from his CIA duties in London runs into IRA terrorists by saving a member of the Royal family that puts him and his family as a target for the feared terrorists before Al Qaeda replaced them. Noyce keeps the pace going with breath taking action sequences where Ryan and his nemesis played by Sean Bean wage war on each other. The excellent supporting cast includes Anne Archer, James Earl Jones, Richard Harris, Polly Walker and Samuel L. Jackson amongst others. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
