The Sum of All Fears

CriticsCritics: 52
AudienceAudience: 6.3

After Russia's president dies and an unfamiliar successor takes power, American intelligence officials grow wary of the political shift. A young CIA analyst is brought in to offer insight, but when a nuclear bomb explodes in a U.S. city, suspicion quickly turns toward Russia and the crisis threatens to escalate.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like tense political thrillers about intelligence and international crises, especially Clear and Present Danger; Not for you if you prefer fast action, simple plots, or consistently believable scenarios.
