Wow!
farrowood22 March 2017
I'll admit, I felt like things had gotten pretty stale at firehouse 51. Too much soap opera-ish drama, not enough good, nail-biting suspense. Well, the writers clearly got a wake up call and boy are they shaking things up! The last couple of episodes have had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. The performances by the actors who play Kidd, Severide and Hermann all deserve awards, they were absolutely brilliant! If you haven't watched in a while, tune back in and give Fire another chance, you won't be disappointed.

Realistic Portrayal had me squeezing my pillow

I approached this episode with some trepidation, given my aversion to gangster movies and their tendency to glorify criminal behavior. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the depth and intensity of the storytelling, which managed to transcend the typical tropes of the genre.

The actors portraying the gang members delivered chillingly realistic performances, which added a layer of realism to the episode that I found compelling and unsettling. Their portrayal of sadistic murderers was so convincing that I found myself gripping my pillow in fear, completely absorbed.

What struck me most was the way the episode forced me to confront my own reactions and moral compass. As I watched, I found myself empathizing with the victims and feeling a visceral urge for justice. However, I had to remind myself that resorting to violence, even in the face of such brutality, is not the answer.

This episode served as a stark reminder of the importance of police training and accountability. The actors' performances were so convincing that I could easily understand how law enforcement officers could lose their moral compass when confronted with such depravity. It highlighted the need for consistent training and support for those tasked with protecting our communities.

In conclusion, while I found the subject matter and characters deeply unsettling, I must commend the actors for their stellar performances. They brought a level of realism and intensity to the episode that made it both compelling and thought-provoking.
