The first 30 minutes could be summarized in around 5 minutes max. Quite disappointing story all in all. I enjoyed the book quite a lot, but this movie is hardly worth the tag of "tom clancy". It doesnt reach the level of complexity anywhere, not even close or by a long shot. Also not a fan of this woke black washing. John Kelly at least is played by someone with a strong appearance. Especially Greer is a weak character and the whole person does not make any sense either. Not as a black woman military commander in the place of an iconic role as Greer. Ok, at least they changed her name to Karen, but still..... nope. Plus illogical to sent such a high ranking person on a special forces mission to a country where they famously dislike colored people.
Overal this movie is a 6 out of 10 max. And that is being very kind. Predictable and a bit too easy of making CIA the stupid bad guys (which of course is portrayed by a white guy). The whole plane crash scene makes very little sense and... well.. too many things make little sense. This movie just seems to lean heavily on being woke and just use the title of a tom clancy book to attract viewers.
