As of October 28, I'm behind by a dozen movie reviews so let's see how many I can get posted. This is a review for the August 3, 1994 movie "Clear and Present Danger".
Trailer
Cast
Harrison Ford - Jack Ryan
Willem Dafoe - John Clark
James Earl Jones - Adm. James Greer
Plot
After a friend of the President gets murdered, the President decides that the threat to the United States is the drug cartels of latin America. The acting director (Jack Ryan played by Ford) tries to get information regarding the situation and promises no troops will be sent to attack the cartels. However, troops are sent secretly (backed by the President to get the job done). When Ryan finds out about the troops, he tries to bring them home and let the truth be known.
Rating Criteria
0/5 – No value whatsoever. Absolute waste of time.
1/5 – Barely worth any time.
2/5 – Pathetic but has a bit of something to hold the attention a little.
3/5 – Somewhat kept the attention but could definitely have used more.
4/5 – Good, but not awe-strikingly amazing. Could have maybe used a bit more to the movie.
5/5 – Go see it! Wonderful movie all around. – characters, music, theme, story line, etc.
3/5 - I was not majorly impressed by this movie. It was interesting to see the corruption that can occur behind the scenes and it was good to view a character being lawfully good. However, the movie doesn't stick out as one to definitely recommend. A good viewing but not "go watch now".
