League of Extraordinary Gentlemen/Daredaveil

Advantages: Intriguing characters and wonderful spcial effects.
Disadvantages: You are left wanting to see more.

Jack Ryan vs Harrison Ford

Advantages: All Jack Ryan stories are together and in order
Disadvantages: Jack Ryan played by different actors

Sean Connery is brilliant as usual but I found The Hunt for Red October very slow to start with, although it got exciting towards the end. *Patriot Games* Patriot Games had me hooked from start to finish. ...
...then a race to stop the terrorist whose brother he killed from killing his family. Non-stop action and suspense. *Clear and Present Danger* Clear and Present Danger had me hooked from start to finish (although slightly complicated storyline). Jack Ryan (Harrison Ford) is appointed acting CIA Deputy Director of Intelligence aqnd heads off to Colombia to investigate the murder of one of the President's friends. This film is full of action and cover ...
