Synopsis:

This was the third movie of the Tom Clancey Jack Ryan novels (though in the novel order it is actually no 5). Jack becomes the Deputy Director of Inteligence at the CIA and stumbles across a secret (and illegal) plan by the President to send in SEAL units to destroy Columbian drugs rings. The President cuts of support, the SEAL's are stranded and only Jack can help.

One of my favourite clips is where Jack wants to hire a helicopter and pulls out a CIA business card.
