Movie Reviews of 24: Season Five
Movie Review: Predictable but Addicting
Summary: 5 Stars
The more you watch 24, the more you'll realize how often the same plotlines are used over and over again. The secret to its success lies in its ability to combine those very predictable aspects in new and creative ways. 24 of course has an untouchable hero in Jack Bauer, but adds the unique twist of being willing to kill or slander pretty much any other character in the show. No one is above being blown to bits at a moment's notice or being revealed as a turncoat of the worst sort.
Every season of 24 has a couple of less engaging portions. In Season 5, I would say that it wanders a little in the beginning, and then about 15-16 hours in.
Once you get into the heart of the story line, it really IS quite addicting. I'm not spoiling anything by saying that Season 6 is definitely left wide open.
This is definitely a show to watch on DVD. I would find it very annoying to watch it week by week on television.
Movie Review: Simply wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have seen all the seasons of 24 and season 5 is my favorite yet! It is a terrific show. As others have said it is suspensful, exiting, fast paced, and full of action! I had taped season 5 off of tv when it was on and I watch it reapetadly:). I have already pre-orderd season 5. Yes it's that good! When you watch the first few episodes of 24 make sure you give it a chance. Anyway back to the review. The star of the show is Jack Bauer. If you have watched any of the 24 seasons you will know that he has had a hard life. It is amazing how 24 can get you addicted. Pretty soon you will be cheering him on when he fights terrorists and crying when somthing bad happenings to him. Make sure you watch season 6:)!
Pros:
Fast paced
Action filled
Extremly addictive
Exiting
And SO much more:)!
Cons
Defintly not a little kids show
When it comes on you will put your life on hold:)
Movie Review: So exciting!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just have gotten into 24 in the past 6-12 months, and I must admit that I am very impressed with the show! It's always got such great action and suspense, and I think the story lines are always so interesting. I've now spent the last several months getting caught up on what's going on, and I'm finally ready for the 6th season to begin on TV.
I felt the 5th season was excellent (one of, if not the best), and I think the current actors on the show really work well together. The season includes watching Jack Bauer come out of hiding in order to stop some political radicals from terrorizing Los Angeles. He continues to fight them and all the underlying groups/organizations who are helping them. You'll never believe who ends up being their supplier!
Excellent season! For anyone who enjoys action and suspense, the 5th season of 24 is a sure winner! :-)
Movie Review: Best Season of 24
Summary: 5 Stars
Everyone is now familiar with the adventures of Jack Bauer and the Los Angeles Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU), particularly how each season chronicles the events which unfold hour after hour in a single day of Jack's life.
Having watched all the seasons, I dare say that Season 5 is the most engaging and exciting. There are various plot twists and by now, the characters are very comfortable in their roles and the viewers can associate with them.
This seasons carries on from Season 4 so it is best watched only after you've understood what happened in the previous season. While you can pick things up along the way, it's more tricky without the background.
I really enjoyed Season 5 (I think Season 6 was a little silly) and hope that Jack comes back strong in Season 7.
Hope it keeps you at the edge of your seat, as it did for me!
Movie Review: 24 - Season Five review from Fred (The Netherlands)
Summary: 5 Stars
24 became known to me when I visited my nephew in Willingboro. He told me about 24 and he made me very curious about the adventures of Jack Bauer. 24 was not yet known to people in the Netherlands. So I bought season 1 to 4 in the United Stated of America. Seasaon 5 is the best season ever. Jack Bauer is back in action, after being 'dead' a few years. He comes in action when his friend David Palmer is assasinated and when trying to fly to Los Angeles for joining CTU a terrorist group takes control of the airfield. After succesfully overcoming the threat, Jack is being re-instated as a CTU operative. Now he has evidence of the White House being involved in the assasination of Palmer and the terrorist attack on the airfield. From there on it is full out action with a fantastic ending , what will certainly make season 6 one to watchout for.
