DVD Quick Take Patriot Games is the second Tom Clancy novel to be turned into a movie. This time out, we have Harrison Ford playing Jack Ryan, who we originally met in The Hunt for Red October. In this story, Dr. Ryan gets tangled up with radical IRA terrorists. And Ford turns in his usual excellent performance. Movies that were produced before DVDs were even in existence often make for darned mediocre transfers. This disc is a very pleasant exception though. We wish the picture were widescreen enhanced, but the letterboxed image you get is quite excellent. Likewise for the audio. Be sure to select the Dolby Digital 5.1 track if your theater is so equipped as it is NOT the default on this DVD. If you do, you'll get some very lively sound. Overall, if you're a Clancy or Harrison Ford fan, this DVD belongs in your collection along with Clear and Present Danger. - Billy Bob Add this DVD to your collection
