AMAZE AMAZE AMAZE!!!!

Bar the absolute dogwater, godawful, terrible, stinky poo poo S3 I’ve been a big fan of the Krasinski run of Jack Ryan and this has been no different. Solid acting, espionage and some pretty superb action carry this through its weaker parts. I also really liked how so much of this was the Michael Kelly show as I’ve always considered him one of the most underrated actors working. Sienna Miller is always a delight as well and she kills it…
