Now I've finished it this is Strike Back with half the charm and a quarter of the action.

I quite liked Jack Ryan, but this is spot on.

This made me start rewatching Strike Back and even the british season with Armitage plays better.

This is roughly on par with the Nu! Strike Back that premiered earlier this year - by no means bad and certainly has its moments. But its got a good long ways to go before really clicking on a higher level.

God drat, I read all the pages of the thread waiting to see if anyone else noticed they straight up ripped off the ending of the movie Heat.

Both involve:
-Protagonist spotting antagonist outside large building with cops all over (Hospital vs hotel)
-Antagonist seeing the person they care for the most (Suleiman's son vs De Niro's girlfriend)
-Antagonist's loved one seeing the antagonist choose to abandon them so they can get away
-Protagonist killing antagonist at mass transit station (subway vs airplane runaway)

:psyduck:

Its almost like basic story structure or something.

Like yeah, I thought the finale was a bit of a damp fart, but still.
