Just saw an advance showing of the movie here on base, and I give it 1.5 thumbs up. Although it was a good movie, as usual the book is 100 times better. The movie seemed too slow, from what I remember when I read it, the book didn't appear to be as slow. Just 1 mans opinion.

The final act of the book was really stressing, with Ryan introducing himself on the red phone. Was that well made in the movie?
Is it Harrisson Ford who plays Ryan?

I think Ben Afleck plays Jack Ryan this time around.
