Okay, I'll admit to having watched it and my initial impression was "Tom Clancy movie"

Plenty of action even if the storyline was predictable but still watchable if not just for the special effects and CGI as well as the totally opposing characters in the plot.

Those who watch it will no doubt be reminded of Hunt for Red October but the lasting impression for me was the bluff and counter bluff as well as the tense standoff near the end and also the realisation our perceived enemies are often no different to ourselves.
