Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit by Kenneth Branagh, 2014 (PG-13)
with Chris Pine (Star Trek Into Darkness, Unstoppable, This Means War, People Like Us), Kevin Costner (The Company Men, Man of Steel, The Bodyguard), Kenneth Branagh, Keira Knightley (Seeking a Friend for the End of the world, Anna Karenina, A Dangerous Method, Never Let Me Go, Love Actually)
From the director of Thor and Sleuth
CIA analyst Jack Ryan tries to thwart a terrorist plot to bring down the U.S. economy in this action-thriller helmed by Kenneth Branagh. Chris Pine plays the title character alongside an all-star cast that includes Kevin Costner and Keira Knightley.
For some reason, the enemy being is Russia is back in fashion in Hollywood, but anyway, the actors are so good you get into the story, it flows well, the story is catchy, and that makes up for a good spy movie of the good old days (of course Tom Clancy's book is probably helping the script to be solid). And even if Kenneth Branagh evolved from Hamlet to Thor (!?!), this one at least doesn't feel like a joke.
