On paper, I should be more excited for Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit.

I really love Chris Pine as Kirk in the new Star Trek films, I’ve always had a lil' crush on Kiera Knightley, I enjoy the direction and acting of Kenneth Branaugh, but besides the clear large scale of the film from the trailer, something leaves me cold.

I’ll give the film a look for its second trailer, but right now, in a stacked Christmas moviegoing season, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit really needs something greater to keep my interest.

What say you?
