Patriot Games Summary
MPAA Rating: R
Director: Phillip Noyce
Genres: Action
Rating:
In Patriot Games, Harrison_Ford plays former CIA agent Jack Ryan, taking over from Alec_Baldwin, who had played author Tom_Clancy's brainy protagonist in Hunt for Red October. This time around, Ryan foils an attempted assassination, thereby incurring the wrath of a maniacal Irish radical (Sean_Bean). After seemingly neutralizing the villains, and deciding to celebrate the occasion with his wife (Anne_Archer) and daughter (Thora_Birch), everything appears to be back to normal; then all hell breaks loose. Author Tom_Clancy himself bemoaned the liberties taken with his novel in the final sequences; the picture scored with audiences, however, and soon inspired a followup, A Clear and Present Danger (1994), also starring Ford.
