The Terminal List Series Review: Chris Pratt just can슬롯사이트t seem to get a win. Recently the actor has put out such lacklustre projects, that you have to look back at his career and think what went wrong. Gone are the days of Parks and Recreation and Guardians of the Galaxy (however he does have a few interesting projects coming up), and we have entered in the era of Jurassic World Dominion and The Tomorrow War. Pratt definitely needed a win. Watching The Terminal List슬롯사이트s trailer, I thought to myself that this looks like a great thriller to check out and Pratt is out of his comfort zone here. To my utter disappointment, it was just another military schlock that ended up being a boring and dull affair.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천The Tomorrow War Movie Review: Chris Pratt슬롯사이트s Sci-Fi Actioner Has a Solid Concept but Is Let Down by an Inconsistent Script (LatestLY Exclusive).
The Terminal List is written by David DiGilio and is based on the novel of the same name by Jack Carr. Following Commander James Reece (Chris Pratt), we see him lead his entire Navy SEALs platoon into an operation that turns out to be a setup. Heavily scarred by it, he returns back home with a very disjointed memory of the events that took place. As new evidence comes by, Reece realises that not everything seems like the way it is and discovers there are people after his life, and his family as well.
The Terminal List starts out with a covert operation to apprehend a high priority target. That opening scene of the show was perhaps the most entertaining part of it, after which it takes a steady nosedive. With stakes up in the air and a tense atmosphere being created, it슬롯사이트s revealed that the enemies were actually waiting for the soldiers on the other side and a massive gunfight breaks out. After Reece has many casualties take place within his team, they decide to move back and escape.
Now the reason that's the most interesting part of the show, because that was the only point where the plot moved forward at a normal pace. It was well thought out, the intrigue was present and the action was shot well too. After that though, it's just a series of watching people sit and do nothing.
Watch The Trailer:
For a thriller, The Terminal List barely delivers upon it. Every trope that you could have expected from a project like this is present over here, and it creates for such a monotonous viewing. A lot of that has to be in part of just how uninspired Chris Pratt슬롯사이트s character feels. Now don슬롯사이트t get me wrong, I love Chris Pratt, and he does his best with the material that슬롯사이트s given here, however so much of his writing feels uninspired. A military guy doing military things while trying to uncover a conspiracy. There is nothing to him aside from Pratt trying to elevate this role with his skills. Even the efforts to ground him with his family ended up being a failed attempt in trying to make the audiences sympathise with him.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Elvis Movie Review: Austin Butler슬롯사이트s Elvis Presley Biopic Is An Audacious and Exuberant Film Fueled By Baz Luhrmann슬롯사이트s Eccentric Direction (LatestLY Exclusive).
Constance Wu still manages to bring her A-game though. Playing the role of reporter Katie Buranek, she has this sense of curiosity to her that stops her from being a total bore. Perhaps the most interesting character on the show. Taylor Kitsch as Ben Edwards provides for some meaningful heartfelt moments as well, while Jai Courtney and Sean Gunn are quite enjoyable in their appearances here. Overall, the cast does try its best, but they can슬롯사이트t shake off a rather mediocre plot from underneath them.
So much of The Terminal List is not only focused on wanting to be a military drama, but also a spy thriller in which it ends up losing all its flair. There is no sense of levity or even a personality to the framing of the story here. It will have you wanting to dope out after the first episode. After James Reece슬롯사이트s umpteenth pedantic researching of what actually happened, I wondered what's the point of all this. Even the well framed action슬롯 머신 사이트 추천scenes can't save it.
The Terminal List슬롯 머신 사이트 추천feels like Zero Dark Thirty (interestingly, also starring Pratt)슬롯 머신 사이트 추천mixed in with The Bourne Identity, and that슬롯사이트s a recipe for disaster considering how different they are. Even Antoine Fuqua슬롯사이트s directing here wasn슬롯사이트t able to save this humdrum of a plot, and that man is known for making cliched stories very exciting. Interesting ideas being presented at every turn, but슬롯 머신 사이트 추천The Terminal List discards those슬롯 머신 사이트 추천for some more superfluous drama.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천The Black Phone Movie Review: Ethan Hawke and Mason Thames' Horror Film Is A Heart-Pounding Experience With A Supernatural Twist!

The Terminal List at times can even be borderline self-indulgent with how it슬롯사이트s trying to convince you that its smart. Had the plot twists actually been delivered with some proper build-up, the landing could have been stuck better, but it's just mired in layers of fluff.
Yay!

Nay!

Dull and Monotonous
Final Thoughts
The Terminal List is everything that you shouldn슬롯사이트t do while creating a thriller. From Pratt슬롯사이트s mundanely written character to a plot devoid of any levity, this is a thriller series that doesn't capitalise, well, on the슬롯 머신 사이트 추천thrills.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천The Terminal List슬롯 머신 사이트 추천premieres on Amazon Prime Video on July 1, 2022.
