Commitment

I loved this show but to end it like this with so many unanswered questions and unresolved storylines?

Seriously...what the hell?

The Last Ship was sailing smoothly in season 1,2 and 3 but in season 4 the things got escalated. The war for the hunt of Mexican War Lord takes and drastic turn. In the final battle once, the battleship almost destroyed the Nathen James and she was sinking, her main engines were destroyed, the navigation system went dark and her propulsion was out of order; and suddenly we saw the sinking vessel started moving at high speed and went straight in to the battleship and destroying it thereby sinking both the ships was a complete fluke. As the navigator and the engine operator both said that the ship is sinking then how come? It started moving was not understood. In a complete destruction of both ships, the captain mercilessly surfaced and was saved. It seems that the TNT was low on budget in the season finale and just hosh poshed the series in the end.

I never heard how an Iowa-class battleship (only 4 in existence) came to be in the possession of the enemy forces. They are all museum ships-2 in the Pacific and 2 on the East Coast. Did I miss a part of the plot??

Please, tell me that this is not how they finished this show... What the hell? So many unresolved storylines and the fact that they didn't include Rhona Mitra for a final cameo is such let-down.

The Last Ship Episode 5.10 (4 out of 5 stars).

The season finale does deliver an epic battle on the beach. Chandler's team invading on the beach. Taking down Tavo's military. It was an all out exciting battle. There are some losses. Nathan James going on a battleship fight with another ship. Which has been haunting Chandler all throughout this season has finally met its end.

Overall, The Last Ship season 5 has been fair. I would rate the overall season 3 out of 5 stars. It had an uneven tone. The villain was weak. The story was forced and thin. This season stuck out compared to the previous four seasons. Feeling like it was poorly planned. The script and direction was horrible. There are a few action sequences to make it entertaining. The conclusion may not be the best. It does wrap some character arcs like Tom Chandler. And a few others.
