Movie Reviews of 24: Season Five
Movie Review: The Best Season So Far
Summary: 5 Stars
The shocking opening moments of the fifth season of 24 literally blew away everything that we've come to know about the show. Alliances are challenged, close friends are lost--all the while Jack Bauer tries to keep his sanity and find out who the real culprit is behind one of the most trying days in American history.
The cast is perfect, the storyline is compelling, and the action is never ceasing. This season had by far the most suspense as well as the most cliff hangers. After I finished watching an episode, I usually wanted to go right to the next and watch it right away! There is, however, a big plot hole in the season. The fate of Evelyn Martin and her daughter was never covered, and I found that unfair; an entire episode depicted their plight, and I feel it should have been resolved, whether she was killed or left alive by Henderson.
Any show that can make a person sympathize with someone while viciously rooting against them (i.e. Logan) is a stupendous show. 24 delivers all of that and more, with its best season to date.
9/10
Movie Review: The Best Show Ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not just saying it. It is the best show ever on TV! This show sure should be a guide to hollywood on how to make drama/thriller/suspense movies. I mean, come on! Nothing I've seen this year compares to this show except maybe United 93 and Mi:III. Still, this show is better than those two. From the first episode where the shocking twists and turns of the fates of our favorite characters all the way to the Russians stealing nerve gas and attacking CTU all the way to the traitorship of President Charles Logan and awesome finale, this show was right on the money. Even though Mi:3 was good, 24 keeps the action and suspense up all the way from start to finish. Season 4 was great and tense but this year's season and may I mention the EMMY AWARD WINNING SEASON OF 2006, blew my socks off as what to expect. No one is safe. If you love 24, especially from the beginning, get this DVD release of 24 on December 5th. Also check out fox.com/24 for the season 6 trailer. Seeing it will only want you to get this and get ready for 24 in January. This show Rocks! No other show on tv comes close!Movie Review: It's 24, what do you expect
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been watching 24 since it first aired back when I was a freshmen in college. I have watched it weekly every year since it first began. I can say that I have been hooked since the first season. I am not a picky viewer, so it would be expected that I would give this season 5 stars just like every other season. This season really starts out with a bang and never lets up. The acting is absolutly superb. Gregory Itzin and Jean Smart as simply brilliant actors. If you have been living under a rock and have never seen 24, buy season 1 and I promise you will end up buying the rest of the DVD's. If you are a fair weather fan, buy this DVD. It's got tons of extras, it's a great season with lots of action, and trust me, in 10 years, it would be a great show to revisit. Some people may be picky and say this show has it's plot holes, weak tangent story lines, and isn't very likely. But lets be honest, this is tv, it's not suppost to be real life. If you like great acting, superb action, and a story that will keep you wanting more, but this season and every season before it. Enjoy!Movie Review: Modern days' Job
Summary: 5 Stars
It seems like things cannot get worse than they are before the dawn of day 5; the tragedies and catastrophes Jack has suffered from throughout the previous seasons would have been unbearable to most human beings - but Jack endured.
Comes day 5 to demonstrate that things cannot always get better - as Jack comes back from the presumed-dead to face an immense loss and immediately continue to save a nation from formidable new enemies - foreign and domestic.
At its fifth season the show is interesting, vibrant, energetic and possibly better than previous seasons; "24" is still in its development phase - it appears that there's a lot more to do and tell in the future - and it's admirable to be able to say that about a series at the point where most other TV shows are long beyond their glory days.
The series itself and Kiefer Sutherland as its leading actor finally won the Emmy they deserved this year. It came in a good time - when TV modern days' Job and probably ultimate hero show how to get over, move on and get the job done.
Movie Review: It just gets better...
Summary: 5 Stars
......the first time I was exposed to 24 was during the season premiere of Season Five. I was at a friends house and he was flipping through the channels and this was on. I loved the show from then on, but knew I would have to get caught up to know what was going on. I never watched an episode again for a long time (because I always worked when it was on). Recently one of my friends was telling me how great a show 24 is, and a store had the Seasons 1-4 on sale for $16, so I decided, why the hell not. I bought Seasons 1-3, then four and now 5. This is by far the best TV show I have ever watched. You will litteraly get hooked on it, as you will want to know what is going to happen next. It's full of plot twists and will not put you to sleep, it is very good. Season 5 resumes a few months after Season 4. This one is non-stop all the way. Jack is forced to come out of hiding after...well if I told you it would spoil it so you will have to watch. This one takes a turn to where you would never expect. Do yourself a favor and check it out. It will not disappoint.
