Best of Ford's Jack Ryan movies: taut and tough.

Ainda que seja o exemplar mais irregular da série Jack Ryan, o filme se beneficia da vulnerabilidade (emocional, não física) com que Ford retrata o herói.

A solid government thriller, but often hard to follow. Lots of talking, but a satisfying climax.

Danger is just an overblown attempt to latch onto already-waning "Just Say No" sentiment in the U.S. (it was released in 1994). No dice.
