[Ben Affleck's] Jack Ryan is simply impossible to take seriously, and that's something the film could probably never survive.April 29, 2009
A solid thriller with a great cast that tends to suffer from some faults...June 03, 2002

I'm not saying Affleck is in way over his head, but a scuba tank and swim fins might come in handy.January 01, 2011
Generic action film not good for kids, or anyone.June 02, 2002
Phil Alden Robinson, who directed from a script by Paul Attanasio and Daniel Pyne, is an accomplished craftsman, but his movie has been upstaged by the sum of our fears.June 10, 2002
Affleck merely creates an outline for a role he still needs to grow into, a role that Ford effortlessly filled with authority.July 20, 2002
An implausible apocalypse without depth or resonance, a cartoon of international politics presented with no James Bond-like playfulness and with all the superficial realism money can buy.June 04, 2002
A trite espionage thriller without the thrills but with a lingering measure of nausea.
