Although “Patriot Games” does not live up to its predecessor, the resulting film feels very different from the get-go when you have a completely different director and lead actor take hold of the series. “Patriot Games” is a sequel to John McTiernan’s “The Hunt for Red October”, which featured Alec Baldwin as Ryan. When Jack has everything to lose, the two men, like a foil from different worlds, put their best skills to use as they each take the CIA and IRA toward war. When one of those members, Sean Miller, loses his younger brother to Ryan in self-defense, a spy game of retaliation and revenge begins when Miller escapes custody and targets Ryan’s family. The film loosely adapts Tom Clancy’s original novel of the same title, which features the consequences of Ryan’s actions for intervening in a terrorist attack committed by rogue Irish Republican Army members. Originally released on June 5, 1992, “Patriot Games” was directed by Philip Noyce and starred Harrison Ford as CIA Analyst Jack Ryan. This year marks the 30th anniversary of Tom Clancy’s “Patriot Games” and the perfect time to revisit one of Jack Ryan’s earlier film entries. But before it arrives, there is plenty more Jack Ryan content for those interested beyond the TV Show. Since its 2018 release, “Jack Ryan” has become one of the most popular streamed shows on Amazon Prime, and fans are patiently waiting for season three, which is scheduled for release this year. It is currently available to stream on Hulu.
