A commentary on the second season of the Prime Video series 'The Terminal List'

A few days ago, I finished watching the second season of "The Terminal List," an excellent series released in 2022 by Amazon Prime Video.

'The Terminal List: Dark Wolf,' an action series not suitable for antisemites
'The Terminal List': an excellent series that has brought wokes to the brink of hysteria

This new season picks up the action where the first one left off, while also incorporating elements from the prequel "The Terminal List: Dark Wolf," released by Prime Video last year. Once again, Chris Pratt stars as James Reece, an officer from Navy SEAL Team 7—the U.S. Navy’s special operations unit—who finds himself embroiled in a well-crafted plot, further enhanced by a strong soundtrack and excellent cinematography. These elements carry over into the new season, with the addition of new components that make it all the more compelling.

Part of the action centers on a real-world event: the Russian invasion of Ukraine. I must say that this aspect was not my favorite part of the season; some scenes struck me as frankly unrealistic (I won’t go into details, so as not to spoil the story for those who haven’t seen it yet) and seemed tailored specifically for a U.S. audience—a demographic where, unfortunately, the perception of this war has become distorted by a heavy dose of pro-Russian narrative. All in all, I believe the series has not lost any quality, despite having effectively run for three seasons now (including the aforementioned prequel).

It should be noted that the series includes some rather intense scenes, much like the previous two seasons—so it is not suitable for children or highly sensitive individuals. Personally, I enjoyed it and look forward to what comes next, as the season ends on an open note. Here is the trailer:
