Where it truly excels is in showing the emotional costs paid by the super soldiers doing their jobs and by the witnesses and/or victims of all the mayhem.

If it were just a collection of well-choreographed explosions and gunfire, it would still be an entertaining watch. But there's a genuine effort made to show the impact of all this mayhem on both the men perpetuating it and the people who are witnesses and/or victims to it.

[The clichés of the counterterrorism action-thriller genre] cohere into something with enough surface plausibility to be more entertaining than insulting.

The insanely intense action drama opens its final season tonight. Scenes of quiet only serve to bridge action sequences.

Its hasty pace frequently muddles precisely who's who where, when or why. Even the zippy sex scenes play like another gratuitous burst of firepower.

Gratuitous elements aside, Strike Back is a decent enough cops 'n' terrorists drama.

A show that knows what it wants to be and knows the audience it's targeting. More shows today could learn a thing from Strike Back. It's a really good military drama with action scenes that could rival those found in John Wick or the newer James Bond in everything except CGI.

Strike back is the best TV series. I love and enjoyed watching this movie. Anyway, why is Scott and Michael isn't in the season 7. These two are my favorite characters.
