The Terminal List - Die Abschussliste

The Terminal List is an action packed thriller that will keep you at the edge of your seat throughout the entire series. It's absolutely loaded with star power led by Chris Pratt and also has incredible performances by the rest of this great cast including Taylor Kitsch, Riley Keough, Jai Courtney, Constance Wu, JD Pardo and Jeanine Tripplehorn just name a few. You don't get that kind of star power (especially Pratt) for a tv show unless you have a good show on your hands. This show is full of action but it's not a mindless action show, it has a good story that keeps you entertained throughout the show.

James Reece (Pratt) is a commander of a Navy Seals platoon that's wiped out except for him and his buddy. He gets a concussion and when explains to his bosses what happened they tell him he's wrong and have their own story of what actually happened. They keep telling him he's wrong and the trauma is why he's not remembering but it's much deeper than that. The only who who believes him is his buddy (Kitsch). Turns out he is right and the US Gov't has an agenda and are against Reece, who's a decorated and respected soldier. What is the Gov't trying to protect? Again, it's a great action show that will absolutely keep you entertained!

Awesome production value, cinematography, acting, writing, dialogue, and action sequences. I can't see any weak aspects, but I gave it a 9 just to be restrained. Could very easily been a 10! Maybe an actual specops person would be more critical, but that's not me. Loved every second of it! Sad it ever had to end!

Don't worry, there are no politics here left or right. You'll definitely feel a bit conflicted about the protaganist at times, and wonder if he is going too far. There is particularly one scene on a beach that gives you pause. Its an engrossing thriller about a man that has nothing left to lose.

I'm usually not a Chris Pratt fan. I hated the idiotically named "Tomorrow War". But The Terminal List absolutely delivers. It's gritty and tense, violent and engaging. It rings ever so slightly like a Jack Ryan movie with threads of the Manchurian Candidate. It keeps you thinking and keeps you watching. Perfect weekend binge.

Seen some of this before, but the execution was very well done.

Chris, when he's not restrained by Jurassic Park crud. Has pretty decent range of emotions for a modern actor. I'd like to see him take on some very heavy subjects that are not just action.

He could pull off a great role in the right type of indie horror film from A24 productions.

Much more respect to him after this series.

I won't go into plot, but it's Chris's show. He executive produced and obviously had a lot of say in this. Not making it politically biased like so many films are now.

Great escapism for 7hr It's shot well and the military aspects seem well researched so a squad moves tactically and they shoot properly. Not John wick style.

I think I saw 1 score votes purely for being too dark in some scenes..... adjust your tv.... far out people. Contrast and brightness are changeable....
