Espionage, Not Superspy December 18, 2008 B. Mccann (Balckpool, England) Tom Clancy's CIA operative Jack Ryan headlined six novels and, in 1989, was first personified by Alec Baldwin in the submarine chasing thriller The Hunt For Red October, which also starred Sean Connery. With the success of that film, plans were put forward to film the remaining Jack Ryan stories as a "James Bond for the 1990s" (the Bond films being "off air" due to legal wrangling at the time) and Philip Noyce immediately began directorial duties on Patriot Games. Alec Baldwin priced himself out of continuing as Ryan, so Harrison Ford was brought in to spearhead the projected franchise. With its IRA storyline, Patriot Games was controversial but successful. The 1995 follow up, A Clear and Present Danger, did not manage the same appeal and Ford retired from the role, much to Tom Clancy's relief as he felt Ford to be too old anyway.
Eight years later, Ben Affleck debuted as a younger Ryan in The Sum of All Fears, but hopes that this would reboot the Jack Ryan franchise proved fruitless. Plans to film the remaining novels have remained in the ideas department, though there are whisperings of a new movie featuring a new actor in the role. Here is hoping.
Read The Books Too August 8, 2008 Kerricia Marino (New Castle, DE) Well...I haven't finished all of the movies, so maybe this review is a little premature. I have enjoyed what I have watched so far. I am in the process of reading the books first and then watching the movies. Being the book lover that I am, of course I am going to say that the books are much better. I would recommend both.

This collection was exactly what my husband was looking for! He was very pleased with it. It arrived quickly. As always I am very pleased with Amazon's service.
