The Spy Who Flopped: Why Jack Ryan's Descent Continues The latest iteration of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan, Ghost War, has hit Prime Video to decidedly mixed reviews.
A 40% "rotten" score on Rotten Tomatoes marks a significant drop off from its predecessor's four season average of 80%. This decline raises questions about what went wrong and whether the franchise needs reevaluation.
The shift in tone is one possible explanation. The original series, starring John Krasinski as Jack Ryan, was praised for its cerebral approach to espionage.
