Movie Review: Experience Four Days in the life of Jack Bauer
Summary: 5 Stars
First off every season starts out in a way that will get you tuning in for the whole season. This show has its own way of getting you hooked. You watch an episode then a cliffhanger occurs always around a certain time lets say around the very last minute of the hour. The show keeps on keeping you tuned in to the very very last minute of the whole day. Expect all the twists and turns and everything else around these four days of what would be called Jack Bauer's longest day of his life (or days). The show is a complete phenomenon and is probably one of the most suspenceful shows in my opinion. The Jack Bauer character almost fits perfectly to Kiefer Sutherland. Every day has its own story and every day has its own price.
A thing the show could at least include is a date. If your good at math you could add up all the years that pass by between seasons and see what year the show takes place in now. But what year was it when season one occured? Maybe 2001 or so? Every season has its own price as I said before including casualties. Every day there are lots of unexpected things happening. One of the most common seasons in which this occurs is season four. The Counter Terrorist Unit investigates what caused the train bombing and afterwards at 8 am the secretary of defense and his daughter are kidnapped. After they are rescued nuclear plants begin to meltdown and once this ends Air Force One is shot down and terrorists get access to a nuclear warhead. And if you are still watching the show you would know that there are lots of crazy things happening.
The DVD features are a good add on to the show. Unfortunately season one's box set could only pack an alternate ending and Kiefer Sutherland introducing you to Season two. The show rocks but once you watch it you cant get your eyes of of it.
Movie Review: Fox's 24 - Kiefer Sutherland - Seasons 1-4 Review
Summary: 5 Stars
Look. I'm 34 years old. I've had the misfortune of being tortured by Kiefer Sutherland's horrific acting from the late 80's through the 90's (except for Stand by Me). I must also tell you to ignore all the over-publicized hype (commercials, constant re-runs on A&E, press, etc.). Give Kiefer a second change neglecting his past. Judge this for yourself as I have.
I have to tell you that despite all the above, this is likely the most fabulously exciting, leave-them-guessing, sitting on the edge of your pants, can't live until the next episode, best cast thriller of a TV show you'll ever watch. Wow. Almost enough said. I had the misfortune of not seeing this show from seasons I. I was home a few days last year and caught a few reruns on A&E. Believe it or not, I hadn't even heard about the show (and I watch a good amount of TV). I was hooked instantly. This series (all 4 seasons) is worse than a bad crack habit if you're the slightest thriller/police/intelligence fan. I started watching Season I in late November in a vain attempt to catch all 4 seasons before January's Season V debut. I also tried to keep a family together, keep a job, and possibly get some sleep while doing so. Sleep lost out bigtime. There were nights I couldn't pop in the next DVD and watch 5 hours straight. I'd walk into work like the living dead. It was all worth it.
Look, yes there are the ocassional story lines which leave you guessing in the end. Yes, there are some technical boo-boos for the nit-picky crowd. Yes, there is the infrequent imperfect actor or two. But no show is perfect. The stories and format (24 hours) are what get me. Again, this is perhaps the best TV I've ever watched. It's more than worth every penny I paid for the set.
You will not be disappointed.
Movie Review: "I'm federal agent Jack Bauer, and these four days are the longest days of my life."
Summary: 5 Stars
With a great show like 24 you don't know what to expect. The things I expect with this show is suspence, action, an intence fast paced roller coaster, plot twists, and thrills. Fortunately I get all five in this hit show. But what isn't expected in these intence four rounds of 24 hours? The kind of suspence, action, the type of intence fast paced roller coaster, the types of plot twists and thrills. Unfortunately for Jack Bauer once the clock starts to tick his 24 hour nightmare begins. 24 is a hard hitting show. TV ads and sneak peaks into the new episode keep me waiting for the next hour of suspence, action, plot twists and thrills. A question I would want to ask is would a day like these days go by slow? As slow as the whole season goes? Jack Bauer did say in season one "this is the longest day of my life" which I'm sure it was when his wife and daughter were kiddnapped while the same people responsible attempt to assasinate a senator running for president, and in between investigating about a traitor inside CTU. What also lies in store for 24 is the sacrifices made. All four seasons of this hit show are must haves for new and long time fans.Movie Review: My favorite show of all, and I like alot of shows...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of only two shows that keeps my attention from beginning to end (this, and BTVS). I have to watch them on DVD because I hate waiting through commercials and/or waiting until next week, sitting at the edge of my seat....
I'm not sure what it is, I just love the formula. You can't trust anybody, you can't fully predict what's to come, and with the dark cloud of mass destruction always present, the intensity level just increases with every ticking second on the clock. I can't help but love it. And Jack Bauer will do ANYTHING he needs to get the job done, and save lives. President Palmer is a leader that will also go the limits to protect his people. No matter what happens, they never forget the bottom line... It's just an incredible show.
I agree though, with the other person about the spoiler photos before the episode begins. That's just WRONG.
Movie Review: AH-mazing!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
For 5 years my father has been trying to get me to watch this show...I just never remembered or had the time to sit down and catch an episode and from what I gathered it wasn't a show you could pick up in the middle of the season.
I joined Blockbuster.com to get the DVDs in the mail and decided to rent the 1st season. Half-way through, I bought all 4 seasons from Amazon.com because I couldn't stand waiting for the next DVD to come in the mail!
My wife and I are hooked. Border-line obsessed, actually. It's killing us watching the new 5th season on TV...the 1st 4 seasons were watched back-to-back...now we have to wait 7 days in between episodes...it's killing us.
Highly recommend! Such an incredible show! You won't be disappointed if you like intense, highly suspenseful thriller/action movies.
Cheers!
