The Terminal List (2022)
Man oh man!
I'm an avid fan of "The Terminal List," and I can't get enough of it. This series is a masterclass in military authenticity, from the meticulous details to the crisp, impactful dialogue. It's a captivating experience that's elevated by the impeccable portrayal of operatives.
First, let's talk about the details. The commitment to military integrity, from uniforms to tactics, is remarkable. It's evident that the creators spared no effort in getting it right, which adds an extra layer of immersion for viewers like me who appreciate authenticity.
The dialogue in "The Terminal List" is sharp and meaningful. It reflects the discipline and precision you'd expect from military professionals. The exchanges are not just words; they carry weight and significance, which makes the narrative all the more compelling.
And then there's Chris Pratt, who shines as James Reece. His performance is nothing short of exceptional. He embodies the character's complexities, from the combat-hardened warrior to the man grappling with personal demons. Pratt's portrayal is a standout in the series.
What truly sets "The Terminal List" apart is how the operatives behave. It's not about flashy heroics; it's about the unwavering dedication and the sacrifices they make in the line of duty. This authenticity resonates deeply and adds emotional depth to the show.
Now, as for why they should make many more seasons, the answer is clear. "The Terminal List" has established itself as a gripping military thriller with an audience hungry for more. James Reece's journey is far from over, and there are countless directions the narrative can explore. Viewers like me crave to see what challenges and missions lie ahead for this complex character.
In conclusion, "The Terminal List" is a military masterpiece that sets the bar high for authenticity, dialogue, and character portrayal. Chris Pratt's performance is a testament to the show's caliber. With its dedicated fan base and limitless storytelling potential, the series should undoubtedly continue to deliver many more seasons of intense and gripping drama.
Jack Ryan (2018)
Hated the russian seasons. It's too easy, but...
I'm absolutely hooked on the "Jack Ryan" series. It's a heart-pounding journey that gets all the details right. From the authentic dialogue to the spot-on portrayal of agents, this show keeps me glued to the screen.
The attention to detail in "Jack Ryan" is commendable. It's clear the creators did their homework to make the world of espionage feel real. It's this realism that draws me in and keeps me engaged.
The dialogue is sharp and natural, making the characters feel like genuine intelligence professionals. John Krasinski as Jack Ryan and Wendell Pierce as James Greer deliver performances that are nothing short of captivating.
What I love most is how they show us, how the movie operatives behave. They're not flashy heroes; they're dedicated individuals doing a tough job, and it shows. Their professionalism and the challenges they face add depth to the series.
As a fan, I can't get enough of "Jack Ryan." It's a standout in the espionage genre. And should they make more? Absolutely! John Krasinski's take on the character is a winner, and I'm eagerly awaiting the next mission in this thrilling world of international intrigue.
13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (2016)
13 Hours into a series please
I'm a huge fan of "13 Hours," and I believe it has the potential to make an engaging series. The movie's gripping narrative, authentic portrayal of events, and strong performances by actors like John Krasinski and James Badge Dale set a solid foundation for an extended storytelling experience.
Expanding "13 Hours" into a series would allow for a more in-depth exploration of the characters, their backgrounds, and the complexities of the Benghazi attack. It could provide a broader perspective by incorporating diplomatic and political angles, adding depth and complexity to the narrative.
The series format could maintain the high level of realism and attention to detail that made the movie so compelling. It would also keep the story relevant to a contemporary audience interested in real-life military and espionage dramas.
In conclusion, while "13 Hours" is an outstanding film, the potential for a series lies in its ability to further explore the characters and intricacies of the events, providing a more comprehensive and immersive storytelling experience.
SEAL Team: Phantom Pattern (2022)
Why the new gun stock?
I've noticed that the team's weapons' stocks, has got a new gun stock.
Why? Doesn't it get stuck - no pun intended - into their gear? I mean, there's a reason why it didn't have it in the first place... plus, it's much mor sturdy when it's supported by other "beams" from the stock.
The best way to NOT get stuck in stuff, your harness, straps, branches and stuff, is to have a weapon that doesn't stick out in the open. So to have a weapon that has a stock, that gets stuck in these mentioned things, is stupid. Or is this the newest edition to the special operation units equipment now?'
Shouldn't it be more streamlined and "aerodynamic" to the operator?
SEAL Team: Trust, But Verify: Part 1 (2021)
Strategic matters
No face-camo on the soldiers when inserting?
And this amount of light in a bunker? Come on dudes! Don't get stupid series on us! Otherwise: nice episode!
Fact:
Face-camo is a HUGE part of insertion in enemy area. I know.
We Own This City (2022)
Besides Jon Bernthal - then...
It went too to far too fast. Slow the BLEEP down man!
Story is okay. Seems legit on the environment.
Unknown actors: good. Good to have new faces on series.

The Book of Boba Fett (2021)
Holy JEEPERS this is boring and fantasy-lost
Bad acting. He is NOT a good actor. He doesn't know acting.
Bad costumes. Looks like 80s movie set.
Bad story. Wtf?!?
Bad soundtrack. They try too hard to be like Mandalorian, which is GREAT!
Bad acting... did I mention that before? Okay, but it is!!! REALLY bad acting.
They try too hard to be like Mandalorian. But fail misarably because Mandalorian has:
good actors
good lines
good directing
good costumes/environment
... just better.
I have watched 1½ episode. The first one, and half of the second. And they really are just... bad.

Outside the Wire (2021)
This sucks - really
Boring.
Bad script.
Bad acting.
Everything is so damn clean. The streets. The weapons. The uniforms. Looks like a goddamn amateur hour at an airsoft game.
Military view on it:
The tactics they use are just stupid and not what spec ops are using in combat.
The GUMPS? JEEZ! Talk about bad shooters! They are ROBOTS!!! In a movie like this, they OUGHT to think, aim, shoot. Repeat. And hit ALMOST every shot. But no.
