Okay okay the way he pushes Red Route One faster than expected or comfortable is so fucking wild until you realize he's right and the tension keeps building

As much as I don't like Clancy's politics and have severe reservations on the continued books written by other people who retcon the hell out of stuff, HFRO shows how well he captured the military as it is/was and how it believes itself to be.

"Relax, Jonesy, you sold me." Is emblematic of why I never played a captain lol. THIS CAST Y'ALL.

Connery and Neill / Ramius and Borodin hit my Star Trek RPG heart so squarely. It's not easy to be a first officer, the weight you carry that is different from the captain's...maybe less maybe more, it's perspective

Jonesy working away at tapes, a dinner and argument among officers, GAH, the tension kills me.

Baldwin brings a much clearer "I'm a smart person who doesn't want to be here fucking around with guns" vibe, while Ford is like cool street smart and sometimes scared but more instinctive into the action. Both are aspects of the character on the page, but Baldwin looks like I imagine.

The gears in Jack's head whirling in the briefing is so very true to book Ryan, a fantastic thing to watch.

I am a military brat who came to awareness of politics and military machinations during the Cold War and lived in Germany when the Wall fell. This movie HITS for me.

Not if we stay in his baffles....this is my forever movie quote. The mere word baffled brings it front of mind.

Also, imagine this as your intro to Tim Curry, which I'm pretty sure it was for me...Serious character actor shiz here.

The way this movie info dumps technical things in a way that drives tension is incredible
