Rating: - poor quality they need to recall Blu-ray
The movie is good but don't waste your money on this blue ray version there is a pixial problem flashes of light and ghosting images throughout the movie. Terrible picture quality! I exchanged the one I had at target only to get another one of the same poor quality with the same image problems -don't buy it until they fix the problem. I see another person is noting this problem in their reviews here as well. There is no contact number on the DVD box and the email to Paramount pic. goes no where. Target 800 # customer refunds went no where and they were rude on top of it. I had hoped they could give me a contact number to get a replacement. Hopefully there will be enough omplaints that a contact ... Read More

Rating: - Visually Disappointing But Audibly Exciting on Blu ray
In typical studio fashion, Paramount has transfered this exact same master that was temporarily released on HD DVD early this year which was a mixed bag and not what these films, the fans of the films, or high def owners deserve.

I really enjoy the first 3 Jack Ryan films, the 4th not so much because of Ben Affleck and because it's just too out of sync with the previous trilogy. The first 3 are classic political thrillers that do a great job of bringing Tom Clancy's books to the big screen. His vision and Jack Ryan character are for the most part, executed very well on these films. Many have their preferences as the stronger and better of the bunch but I like Hunt for Red October, Patriot ... Read More

Rating: - Good Flick, Terrible Blu-Ray
Though I really like the movie, this might be the worst looking blu-ray movie I've seen, and I own about 50. There is all kinds of light colored pixelization in the darker parts of the film that pulsates and distracts. I tried to find a feedback system on Paramount's web page, but no such thing seems to exist.

Very disappointing.

Rating: - Patriot Games - Solid Action Adventure With Powerful Leading Man
Patriot Games is one of the best action adventure movies out there based off the book by Tom Clancy (one of the most entertaining writers for this genre).

The movie starts as former CIA agent Jack Ryan intercepts a mission by a rogue group of IRA operatives while in London. As a result of the failed mission by the operatives Jack is given a reward and is thanked by the government. This is only the beginning, however, because during the operation one of the terrorist's brother was killed and he's out for revenge.

I think what makes this story so engaging is the fact that it forces us to think about how we'd respond in the situation Jack himself is put into. With your family in ... Read More

Rating: - Decent Flick
It's a good movie. If you like excitement and a little intrigue.

I'm a little confused by the reviews, as I don't think the movie makes "Irish people" look bad. I think a lot of people have no clue about the PIRA, or any other paramillitary/terror group operating in Northern Ireland (LVF, UVF, etc.). The fact is, the IRA today is not Michael Collins IRA, in fact, Collins fought a civil war with these people. The movie doesn't place Irish people in a bad light. It places a rogue army in a bad light, and in truth, they should be placed in a bad light, along with any army, Protestant or Catholic, that sells contraband, targets unarmed men and women and accepts blood money from drug dealers and ...
