Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan

Jack Ryan was even better than I was hoping. Now that I just finished this last season I can say it's just as good as the first three and has a satisfying ending. Like many here have already said the best past of the show is John Krasinski. He is terrific as Jack Ryan. Who knew when he was on The Office that he would be able able to pull off being an action hero? Here he plays Ryan as an up and comer with the CIA. This a smart, believable show that will keep you engaged every episode. If you're looking for a great spy thriller than keep you hooked and wanting to binge as quickly as possible then give this a try. You won't be disappointed!

You cannot go wrong with something based on Tom Clancy's stuff. I am also an avid fan of Reacher. So the premise for this series and the main plot points are super entertaining, everything has great pace, beautiful establishing shots all around the world.

My only big problem is the silly little decisions that constantly challenge our suspension of disbelief. I will just give vague references without mentioning seasons, episodes or characters so you will not be able to see them coming if you watch the show.

But I find it preposterous that they expect us to swallow somebody snapping a neck from a rear naked choke. Or a father trying to reestablish a bond with his son taking him "on the field" when the father knows for a fact his life is in danger. Or the bad guys missing their first shots when they have the element of surprise. I understand you need to get to a shoot out, but they should have set up the situations better.

Other than these details, AWESOME stuff.

But I do not get why they had to bring up the annoyingly whimsy drone pilot.

That is the only chringe path, everything else is awesome. The plots aren't hard to understand, but they aren't built for morons like in most series nowadays.

And you maybe have to check twice the Executive Producer Michael Bay is really THE Michael Bay of fame, because it is definitly not overloaded with explosions and lame gags.

Some people dislike the second season and I'm not one of them. It is different, but the continuity of the main story is great and imo spans flawless between season one and two.

I am a huge fan of all the Jack Ryan movies and Krasinski is without doubt level with Harrison Ford.

Jack Ryan is an action packed thriller that will keep you entertained throughout the entire series and wanting more! John Krasinski has become such an amazing actor and is GREAT (as usual) as Jack Ryan! There have been a few actors that have already portrayed Jack Ryan and I have to say Krasinski is earth best so far. He really is such an underrated actor. Most people think of him as Jim from The Office but he's done so much more since then from action, drama, comedy, etc.! Even though some seasons were a little stronger than others, they're all definitely worth watching. I have really enjoyed the entire series and going to miss it now that it's gone.

I bought the final season of Jack Ryan on DVD. It is quite good.

However the aspect ratio is wrong and nothing I could do with my aspect control on my TV or player could fix it. Even after binge watching every episode the aspect was still annoying.

Having watched every season before I could predict what was going to happen next, but that was OK. I am glad to see that my cast favorites survived and was satisfied that the evil ones paid a price. The scenery/locations were superb. Casting was well done. I recommend this as great viewing.

I will attempt to buy again on Blu-ray and hope that the aspect ratio have been corrected.
