Just have to say, this is probably my favorite movie of all time. I've seen well over 10 times, and still watch it once every few months. Don't know what it is about this show that i can't stop watching.

Also, I really liked Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger, and despite Affleck's awful acting, Sum of all fears

Great movie though.

that's the only thing that hurts the movie. it's hilarious listening to him knowing that he's supposed to be Russian but he sounds like Scotty from star trek.

I anxiously await the return of John McTiernan to the movie making world.

"When he reached the New World, Cortez burned his ships. As a result, his men were well motivated."

This is one of my favorite movies. The accent is a shame because otherwise it is a great performance by Connery. Baldwin, Jones, Glenn, Courtney Vance, Thompson, fantastic cast.

Yeah, it's probably better with the Scottich accent than if it had been an authentic Russian accent. Russian accents are quite painful to the ears of the English speaking world.

But he's not Russian. He's Lithuanian by birth, raised by his paternal grandparents.

it was 50/50 and I needed a break.

Baldwin by far the best Jack Ryan.

I heard Clancy was meh about Baldwin, hated Ford, but loved Affleck............only because he was around the right age. Whatever, Tom
