Last night, I had the unique opportunity to catch an early preview of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit before its Friday release. Did I like it? Yes. (So did my movie-watchin friend Heather) And I think if you like movies like Mission Impossible or The Bourne Identity , I'm pretty confident you will too. It's a formula that continues to work; Bad Guys with an Evil Plan+Good Guys who have to stop them+Action, Suspense and maybe a sprinkle of romance=Good Movie The movie stars Chris Pine as Jack Ryan, a young marine who is recruited by the CIA. What begins as an Analyst job turns into an Operations job. While analyzing banking patterns, he uncovers a plot to bring the Depression 2.0 to the U.S. beginning with a terrorist attack. And now, he has to figure out when and where that's going to happen. Now, start the timer. I sat on the edge of my seat or clutched my armrest through a good amount of the movie. And the nice lady next to me? She read the Russian subtitles for me ...
