The first Tom Clancy adaptation to hit the big screen is still the best. This is the big-screen debut of Jack Ryan, and Sean Connery plays a rogue Soviet submarine captain who abandons orders and defects to the United States. It’s up to Ryan to bridge communications on the high seas to prevent an all-out nuclear war. A patient, highly technical thr...
A high point for stylistic genius Brian De Palma, Blow Out stars John Travolta as a sound effects expert on the trail of a political murder. It's hard to overstate the beauty of the director's compositions here.

Arguably David Cronenberg's most polished and sophisticated effort to date, Eastern Promises stars Viggo Mortensen as a Russian career criminal in London who discovers deep corruption with the help of a midwife (Naomi Watts).
