Partial dichotomy

I'm very forgiving, but this was only okay. Acting not super sharp and predictable.

Pretty forgettable except for Sienna Miller, who is pretty high up on my list.

I generally love Wendell Pierce (Greer) but he was not great in this episode.



There ain't much difference in the man I want to be and the man that I really am.

Man, I seem to remember Ryan only doing stuff in The Hunt for Red October and Patriot Games. Yes, I realize it would make for boring television, but come on. There’s plenty of talented characters in the universe.

I'm a big fan of the original Tom Clancy books and movies. But I'm amazed at what how many books, movies, and shows he's done since he died. They all have Tom Clancy in large print prominently at the top and written by someone else in small print somewhere.

Forgettable leaning towards boring, but not outright terrible. Everyone from the writers and director on down to the actors was clearly just phoning it in. Probably for the best that they didn't try to stretch this out into an entire season.

5.5/10

Enjoyable, lots of car chases and shooting but not any of their best acting or scrip writing. The special effects team was working overtime on this one.

Got a solid "Meh" from me. Eminently forgetable.

My wife and I were both underwhelmed too.

If I tracked the storyline correctly, there’s this guy who was part of this black-ops anti-terrorism organization who commits acts of terrorism in order to demonstrate the need for an anti-terrorism squad.
Wait!

What?!?

I wasn't expecting much given the last couple of seasons of the series. The movie was on par with those.

I wandered off several times, walking the dog, loading dirty dishes in the washer, watching a night spider maintaining its web ... saw the ending. I think.

I vaguely remembering thinking bad guys can't shoot and are extremely unlucky, while the good guys are batting 1K. But then, that's often the case with most movies.


Did I miss anything good? I mean besides Sienna Miller.

I thought it was ok, but I am easily entertained. Had some good action scenes.
