The Terminal List 2022

Chris Pratt is not that good... but I like this kind of show with a modern setting and the atmosphere. It lacks impactful characters tho even if I love Taylor Kitsch (Texas Forever) and some clichés (Middle East bad people, all military with PTSD, etc.).

There's nothing in this show saying middle East people are bad. At all. All the antagonists are domestic. Watching the first episode and making assumptions about it doesn't qualify you to review something.

@dandudesan I watched it all, it just funny how we find normal that kind of secondary things like they are saving the world from terrorists and such. Without even questioning it :)

@orphan ?? are you denying that american soldiers try to kill people they think are terrorists?? generally movies try to be realistic. also by definition of classifying him as a terrorist don't you think that indicates he is a unique middle eastern person (i.e. not all middle easterns are terrorists (i.e. not all middle easterns are bad)) ???

also, no, every military person did not have ptsd. in fact i'm pretty sure there was not a single person with PTSD. the main character had a brain tumor, not PTSD

@unambi Who defines these categories? Kurds were allies with the US then when they were not useful, they got betrayed. Same thing with the Mujahideen. These things aren't black and white. They are just pawns according to the interests of the US. They have literary Nazis who tried to make a coup, so don't come to me patronizing me. Look at the big picture ;)
