The Terminal List (2022)

The Terminal List is painfully slow, cliched, and violently meaningless. In spite of excellent acting from the cast, this series takes forever to go nowhere interesting. It drags the viewer along, at a painfully lethargic pace,weighed down by often cringe worthy, pro US military cliches.When it does finally go somewhere, its to a dark place, filled with ugly, empty, meaningless, violence. I really wanted to like this series, in the same way I did like Jack Reacher. That said, where Reacher was loaded down with calculated violence tempered by reason, thrills and action, this series is, for the most part, its antithesis and that's why it fails to resonate.
