The Hunt for Red October**
US 1990. Paramount. 134m. Panavision
In 1984 a veteran Soviet submarine commander steers his state-of-the-art vessel into dangerous waters, pursued by both the Americans and his fellow Soviets.
Solid, slightly old-fashioned all-star Cold War thriller which maintains a sense of momentum rather than suspense. Generally speaking the first and best of the Tom Clancy film adaptations.
Written by: Larry Ferguson, Donald Stewart, from the novel by Tom Clancy.
Producer: Mace Neufeld.
Director: John McTiernan.
Starring: Sean Connery, Alec Baldwin, Sam Neill, James Earl Jones, Scott Glenn, Richard Jordan, Joss Ackland, Tim Curry, Peter Firth, Jeffrey Jones, Stellan Skarsgaard.
Photography: Jan De Bont.
Music: Basil Poledouris.
Production Design: Terence Marsh.

yes, definitely the best of the adaptations.
Any idea who is going to be taking on the role of Jack Ryan in the next film?
