If you just want an action movie with some plot twists, this is a fine film. Maybe worth a 6. The dialog was flat. Not sure if it was bad script or bad acting/ directing, but the characters didn't pull me in. I was not at all offended by a black John Kelly or a female spec ops commander in concept. I just didn't find these portrayals credible.
If you wanted to watch Clark's story from Tom Clancy's novels, you will have to wait. This wasn't it in any respect. Given how prominently the tie to Clancy was in the marketing, I think it's quite fair to ding them in this review for disappointing us. If you came here to watch a Tom Clancy story, especially one with as much in it as Clark's story should have, this film was a great disappointment. A four rating is overly generous in that respect. I read and agree with many of the 1 and 2 reviews.
