Review: I’m going to try and find some redeeming qualities to this film – truly I am. But, trust me when I say that it is no easy task.
Jack Ryan (Owen Wilson – and nothing to do with Tom Clancy’s famed presidential character) is an aimless petty criminal and drifter who happens to be good-looking as well. Funny isn’t it, how film criminals are always criminally good looking? Anyway, Jack has a decent sense of humor, especially given that he spends the occasional weekend in jail and tends to get beat up by people he’s angered. Then again, he does live on the North Shore of Oahu. That would make anyone feel good.
