Our take
This big-screen Jack Ryan outing keeps the Prime Video series' M edge and is rated M for violence and language. Executions, throat-slitting, headshots, car bombs and dozens of deaths span London and beyond. Strong profanity runs through nearly every tense scene, while sex and nudity stay off-screen. Teens who know the show may recognise the tone, but the body count and bleak spy-war themes suit mature viewers only.
Uplifting themes
Loyalty, teamwork and standing up to corruption appear, although the tone stays cynical about institutions Ryan and Greer try to act with conscience, although the mission still rewards lethal force and secrecy Touches on intelligence oversight and post-9/11 covert history, mostly as thriller backdrop
Story (may spoil tone)
Jack Ryan is reluctantly pulled back into espionage when an international covert mission unravels a deadly conspiracy. Racing against time, he joins CIA allies Mike November & James Greer and sharp MI6 officer Emma Marlowe to battle a rogue black-ops unit in a high-stakes, deeply personal fight.
