Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan Ghost War review: John Krasinski returns in a slick but uneven action thriller

Jack Ryan: Ghost War Director: Andrew Bernstein Cast: John Krasinski, Wendell Pierce, Michael Kelly, Sienna Miller, Max Beesley Rating: ★★.5 When the fourth season of the Prime Video series wrapped up three years ago, in 2023, it felt like John Krasinski’s Jack Ryan had earned his retirement. He’d survived the global conspiracies, stopped the wars, and walked away from the CIA chaos for good. But Hollywood rarely lets a good hero rest. Jack Ryan: Ghost War pulls the character back into the field, transitioning the franchise from the small screen to a sleek, 105-minute feature film. Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan: Ghost War review: John Krasinski returns in a slick but uneven action thriller. The story The movie doesn’t waste time with a slow build. A routine surveillance operation in Dubai goes sideways, uncovering a massive conspiracy involving rogue assassins and stolen intelligence that could compromise global alliances. Before long, James Greer (Wendell Pierce) is tracking Jack down to drag him back into the fold. The old crew slowly gets back together, with Mike November (Michael …

The Running Man review: Glen Powell shines in this slick, propulsive and razor-edged crowd-pleaser

Director: Edgar Wright Cast: Glen Powell, William H. Macy, Lee Pace, Michael Cera, Colman Domingo, Josh Brolin Rating: ★★★★ Filmmaker Edgar Wright takes another swing at dystopian spectacle with his remake of The Running Man, revisiting the world first imagined by Stephen King (writing as Richard Bachman) and later turned into that wildly camp 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger vehicle. This time, Glen Powell steps into the crosshairs, armed with Edgar’s pop-slick energy and a story whose 2025 setting suddenly doesn’t feel like fiction anymore. Glen Powell in a still from The Running Man At its core, The Running Man still follows Ben Richards, an everyday American pushed to the brink by a corporate-run state. Unable to find work after speaking up about unsafe conditions and desperate to afford medicine for his young daughter, he decides to enter “the biggest show on earth,” a televised blood sport that turns human survival into prime-time entertainment. It’s simple: stay alive for 30 days while a team of state-approved assassins hunts you. Win a billion dollars. Lose, and you’re another …

Powerful winter storm dumps heavy snow, causing flight delays, slick roads and school closings | News Today News

A powerful winter storm that dumped heavy snow and glazed roads with ice across much of Texas and Oklahoma lumbered eastward into Southern US states Friday, making for dicey travel and a rare snow day for many students.

In some areas where snow tapered off, such as Memphis, the worry was that wet roads would …
