Jack Ryan Season 1 [DVD] [2019]

This is crafted with a level of attention to detail I have never seen before. Most wonderful and unexpectedly impressive! The depth and numberr of of characters is wonderful. The dialogue is clever, the plots credible, complex, huge in scope. Many neat twists, engaging human issues done with feeling, neat action, human villains. The writers display great imagination in every nook and cranny of their work here. (Everyone likes the helicopter scene). There is no 'Deus Ex Machina' (cheats), it is all worked through and done carefully and coherently. Every win is earned, good and bad. The characters' intelligence is obvious and we follow their logical steps, laid out clearly.One criticism I understand is the Greer character. Not at all Clancy's admiral. Not someone you could imaging one day ever going on to be a CIA 'director of Operations' or NSA. A new gung-ho creation of an aging Jwmes Bond reluctantly consigned to a desk, happy to leave High Value prisoners (to escape) while he goes to join in a Special forces gun fight. Still his is a good character whose more realistic views balance Ryan's boy-scout naivety.Next-gen spy drama without any sci-fi. On steroids. Hugely entertainingHIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Got for my grandad birthday gift. He loves it. One happy grandad

Thoroughly enjoyed the Jack Ryan series. Brought up to date from the books it works well. John Krasinski is superb as Jack Ryan. The script is well written and gripping. We binge watched the whole series start to finish having decided initially to only watch part 1 we couldn't tear our eyes away from the screen. The books are brilliant and I can honestly say the series is too. If you are a fan of Tom Clancy this is definitely worth watching. We were initially worried it would be trash in the same way a lot of series coming out of American are at the moment, but this was excellent.

Bought as a gift, but I have been watching it, only a couple of episodes into it, but so far so good.

the dvd is very well done,well recommend.

Having previously read and enjoyed all of Tom Clancy’s ‘Jack Ryan’ series of books, I was naturally drawn to this made-for-TV production. I have to say, despite only viewing two thirds of the set, I haven’t been disappointed. Although Ryan is here portrayed more as a field operative than an analyst, the plot line is well-paced and believable with sufficient action sequences. Looking forward to the second series.

Arrived in prompt time on pre order. Observed other notable Tom clancy movies like clear present danger. Heard promising write ups which induced me to buy the series. Fine cast that where tailor-made for there roles,well acted. Little Gritty detects a hint of cinema budget quality. Very satisfsctory and had the making of a first class series. Keeping my eyes open looking forward to probable new season.

This is what an action series is all about - really enjoyed it and a great 'binge'! It was fast-paced and exciting but also had time to develop characters and their relationships - and motivations which gave the piece a more sophisticated feel to it, rather than just being an excuse for shootings and explosions. Looking forward to season 2.

Love the Jack Ryan movies
