You know it is a good show when the elitist leftist critics hate it. They can't stand a show where the men do not wear make up and dresses.

Forget the critics this series is a winner. It's very tense and action packed. Chris's Pratt delivers a great acting performance. It's in 4K HDR10+ so it looks great.

Too many unrealistic scenes. But it's still good story-telling and entertaining even if it's not believable. Better than 98% of scripts that are usually hastily put together and rushed to production.

Chris Pratt was quite committed to the role, of that I have no doubt, but if this story had been sold to me as a two-hour movie, I would have had no objection.

The series is violent and entertaining enough as far as the action genre isChris Pratt was quite committed to the role, of that I have no doubt, but if this story had been sold to me as a two-hour movie, I would have had no objection.

The series is violent and entertaining enough as far as the action genre is concerned, which is its 100% focus. There is no deceit in that regard, but other than that it offers nothing of real plot value, not even in terms of criticizing the exploitative policies to which the Marines and the military in general are exposed by the government. In this case using them as guinea pigs to test drugs.

Overall, in this story you could basically intersperse the protagonist played by Pratt with Frank Castle, The Punisher and maybe it would be a little more believable, because there comes a point where the character becomes a sort of super-soldier who survives basically everything in his quest for revenge.
Logistically and financially sustainable with only his own talents gets to look ridiculous after a while.

I understand why it did well in terms of viewership, but overall it has no new attributes that would make it stand out from a lot of similar projects.

It's more than fine as entertainment for a weekend, just keep in mind that the whole thing will demand a little more than 8 hours of your time.… Expand

So I'm not one of those support the troops and support the troops while supporting the troops type of guys, but I do think those in our military deserve to be treated with respect and be given due credit for their heroic actions. This showSo I'm not one of those support the troops and support the troops while supporting the troops type of guys, but I do think those in our military deserve to be treated with respect and be given due credit for their heroic actions. This show was generally a good flashback to classic military actions movies I grew up watching. The plot is a pretty straightforward revenge story with a few twists thrown in as you go along. The action is well choreographed and the combat feels tense and authentic. Of course the protagonist pulls off some pretty impossible feats and is an all around badass, but honestly I missed characters like that. I realized watching this how long it's been since I watched a good action movie and how little of modern day entertainment is worth your time to watch.

The acting was generally pretty good Chris Pratt did a really great job in this one and I think some of the flack he's taken is by people who can't seem him in a serious role and are stuck thinking he's Star Lord or his character from Parks and Rec.

I guess some people labelled this show as right wing because its so pro-military and that's why its getting all the hate, but I could point out the show takes a pretty anti-corporate angle in parts. Some of it is it might be seen as revenge porn or pro-conspiracy and its now "harmful" to watch stuff like that. To those people I say it's far less harmful than something trying to indoctrinate me into a woke cult. I guess some people (critics) are just mad that for once a show didn't shove lame ideology down the viewer's throat.… Expand

The underlying tragedy of special forces troops driven to breaking is well covered here, and it is no surprise that the powers seek even more insidious ways to turn men into machines. The struggle of Commander Reece is impressive, forging himself from incredible personal tragedy to a single-minded purpose of revenge and justice, using sheer willpower to overcome physical and tactical challenges with ease. Taylor Kitsch adds a much-appreciated sidekick role, quite different from his usual chaotic performances. The cast is well selected and drives the story forward. This 8 part series packs a wallop, and during tension-filled sequences I found myself laughing out loud in relief, or grimacing in anger. Pratt has demonstrated versatility, and his moments of reflection on loss are very touching. I am just amazed at the complaints from mainstream media. There is no agenda in this show, let alone a whiff of woke, and that is how it should be - a show based on the merits of fantastic storytelling and great action, regardless of gender or origin.… Expand

The sometimes dark and brutal story, it is truly male cinema worth watching. Don't know why some poorly written stories have better Metascore maybe because of a lack of "the message" but in the difference of SheHulk, this series is really good.

I'm a great fan of the books of Jack Carr, and when I heard about an upcoming tv show, I was really looking forward to see who was going to land the lead role. I got to say when I saw it was Chris Pratt I was a little worried, because II'm a great fan of the books of Jack Carr, and when I heard about an upcoming tv show, I was really looking forward to see who was going to land the lead role. I got to say when I saw it was Chris Pratt I was a little worried, because I didn't think he would be able to deliver the emotional depth to portray James Reece. And I couldn't have been more wrong. Chris Pratt delivers the performance of his career thus far. He easily carries the show, and is the glue that holds everything together. The flashbacks and visions are crucial moments where we feel the pain and determination of the character. It was great to see Pratt take on this role and prove that he's wasting his time on movies like Jurassic Park. The show is truly amazing and a must see. It perfectly shows the reality that the military live with. Not just how much it's sacrificed so people can enjoy and sometimes abuse the freedom they take for granted, but also the problems those same military face coming home. The PTSD and the suicide rate. This show not only salutes the men and women that give their lives for their nation, but it's also a critic to the corruption that can be found in basically almost every branch of the government. It also serves to remind people that the narrative in the news is not necessarily the truth. It shows how easily heroes are made into villains and the villains get away at being heroes, because many of those that call themselves journalists no longer do their job and search for the truth. And how seeking for the truth can many times demand everything a person has. This is a show that anyone that isn't suck on political ideologies can enjoy from beginning to end. It's correctly paced, it has the necessary dose of everything to keep the viewer fully immersed, with some twists that only those paying a lot of attention to every detail will see them coming. The Terminal List is a lesson on what people want to see and how a show is correctly made. Which given the number of shows that this year alone have fail completely to deliver, or are an utter disappointment, it's always refreshing to see that there are a few exceptions.… Expand
