More stupid attempts at being politically correct. Completely unbelievable from the outset

Not only was this a very disappointing deviation from what was a terrific book... it was also a terrible film (!!!). Poor writing, poor acting, poor production value, poor attention to detail (which is NOT what Tom Clancy is known for).

The young female light colonel on an A-team (when at most a Captain about to cycle up to higher command would be in the field) who is too small to carry an 80 pound ruck and pocket/belt weapons and ammo and comms shows its Hollywood equality on parade, killing any reality from the very beginning.
The scenes are stiff, utterly predictable and senseless with super hero one shot accuracy from the good guys and instant kills as a result. No one hides behind cover as the bad guys shoot back and miss every time. There is zero sense of risk or drama,-- a video game not reality where people die.
Overall it quickly establishes this is unreal 'drama' that doesn't ring true, adding up to a Steven Seagal 'action movie' style that is a huge turn off. I gave it a shot, but the director, writer and the players (they're not great actors) didn't give it life or any kind of new 'take' or vision. There's no sense of fear lurking underneath the humor in dangerous situations which is the hallmark of the American military (think Bill Paxton in Aliens), everyone sported a serious narcissistic grandeur like they were all sneering models walking the ramp in military drag. Yuck.
Blah, blah, blah dialog, bland and pretentious to top it off. No one with any experience would note the source of military equipment in the field -- only children call out the brand of a car -- its obvious and well known. In a fight you concentrate on tactical information and act on it constantly, little else.
This 'rerun' with its rainbow cast is what we can expect more and more from EquityWood, AlphabetLand, and BullCorn.
Lasted 2 minutes in. See how long you can 'suspend' belief.

I'm a fan of movies made from Tom Clancy novels and this one did not disappoint. Some of the negative comments seem a little too harsh and one was clearly racist. Michael B. Jordan did an Amazing job portraying a man enraged over the killing of his family and oh my goodness, it was so nice to see Lauren London in a movie after all that she has been through. Normally if a movie bores me, I'll zone out but I didn't with this one. Plenty of action! And don't get me started on Jodie Turner-Smith, perfect actress for the part. Ignore the negative comments, this movie is well worth the watch.

*** UPDATE*** Couldn't even finish the movie and Ive only done that about 5 times.

I wanted desperately to enjoy this movie, and I really like Jordan, he's just not convincing in the role. Clearly not military and he's supposed to be special ops? What a joke, bad.. horrible.. worse.... Gratuitous eye roll!

I really hope the next era of movie and series content will be crafted out of fact and realism, maybe Im naive. Watered down, non realistic, no character development, weak story.

Stupid and utterly predictable... The writers and producers have no remorse for certain. They unleashed this garbage on us all.
MBJ, shame on you. Such nonsense.

I read a couple of Tom Clancy novels, but I mostly watched the movies. I also enjoyed the Splinter Cell / Rainbow Six games from the 00's.

Good film. Prison fight was legit. Environment set pieces was on point with convincing explosions. Plot wasn't a shallow revenge film.

Acting is a bit rough on the edges, but still enjoyable. People are probably upset that it's not an all male / all white cast or something.

Predictable story line. The acting was awful. Half the decisions the characters make in this movie I can guarantee no one in real life would actually come up with because they make no sense. Here's a sense of the movie.......they are about to parachute out of a plane when it is predictably hit with a missile. Instead of jumping with their parachutes, they take them off and just stay in the plane until they crash into the water, yet somehow all of their equipment in the middle of the sea is salvaged and they can continue on the mission. This movie was a real let down. I couldn't even finish it.
