I’m not much for awards I don’t watch awards shows and never will, but in my book…Pratt wins the best actor award for The Terminal List.īut a good actor needs a supporting cast, and Pratt has that in spades. The Terminal List was Chris Pratt’s time to show he has the chops to be more than the goofball good guy or a sports-obsessed slob. Actors who play themselves have made some great and fun movies it’s just something special when one of them can get past that stereotype and make something golden. That is a hard thing to do, and so we are left with actors who play themselves playing a character, like Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds.ĭon’t get me wrong. Johnny Depp and Heath Ledger are two actors who can transcend themselves and embody the persona on-screen. There aren’t many actors who can get out of themselves and into their characters. His delivery of this character was spot on, and I believed I was watching James Reece, not Chris Pratt.
The Terminal List is one of his, if not his best, performances to date. So I’m guilty of typecasting, aren’t we all from time to time? The truth is, Chris Pratt killed it as James Reece. Oh, he’s also Andy Dwyer, basically Star-Lord without the Star or the Lord, from Parks and Recreation. You know, the cocky, smart mouth, clumsy, yet loveable buffoon from Guardians of the Galaxy. After reading the synopsis and watching The Terminal List trailer, I wasn’t convinced Chris Pratt would make this character work.
As new evidence comes to light, Reece discovers dark forces working against him, endangering not only his life but the lives of those he loves. Reece returns home to his family with conflicting memories of the event and questions about his culpability.
