Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan Season 3 - Official Trailer | Prime Video
Prime Video
It's a pretty good action thriller. Not as smooth as I would like, but it definitely sucked us in - we watched the first three episodes tonight. We start with group of special forces guys accompanying Jack on a raid on a commercial freighter in the Black Sea. Rumor has it's carrying a nuclear weapon and their job is to verify this rumor. They drive up in a Zodiac while the ship is underway and using lines and grappling hooks climb up the side of the ship. They must have motorized line haulers because they just walk up the side of the ship. They manage to evade the ship's crew while they search the ship. They don't find anything nuclear, but they find a 'scientist' hiding in a container. They take him with them as they exit the ship and just before the last of them are over the side, crewmen show up with guns and start shooting at them. Why are there armed men on board this ship? Jack's crew is leaving, why is the crew shooting at them? Something doesn't add up. Could this 'scientist' be a plant? I dunno, maybe the crew on Russian ships are armed. It was still a good bit of action, and the questions it raises, well that's just a foretaste of how the whole show goes.
Like all good espionage flicks, we get to visit a bunch of places. In the first three episodes we've been to Rome, Budapest, Vienna, Moscow, Prague, Athens and Santorini, Greece. Some of the buildings are just fabulous.

I gave it up in about the third episode season one when he goes on a secret mission and picks up a girl in a bar and takes her back to his hotel room. Surprise surprise she turns out to be a spy
