Movie Reviews of A Touch of Frost Season 13: Endangered Species
Movie Review: OK ... but ...
Summary: 3 Stars
OK everyone has said it before that there is only one episode and it is a pretty silly episode at that. Trouble is David Jason is always watchable!
The reason for this comment is to clear up a few misunderstandings. This isn't the last of Frost - a new series of 3 episodes is currently showing on UK TV:
Season 14, Episode 1: Mind Games
Original Air Date--12 October 2008
Season 14, Episode 2: Dead End
Original Air Date--19 October 2008
Season 14, Episode 3: In the Public Interest
Original Air Date--26 October 2008
and is being released in the UK on DVD in late October.
What is even stranger is that in the UK there is no season 13 at all! Endangered Species was first of all released on a single DVD but is listed (along with the earlier story "Near Death Experience" as season 12. Hence in the UK we have seasons 1-12, an extra disc also labelled series 12 and now series 14 is being released.
I suspect in the US Endangered Species was released as season 13 to avoid a confusing gap (but then they just added to the confusion by having 2 seasons that were effectively single episodes!)
Movie Review: Season 13 is very poor: Avoid!
Summary: 1 Stars
I've been a follower of Frost since the series first started. I have also read the books and I own all the released DVDs. I was sorry I bought season 13.
Firstly, it's just one episode, and secondly the story was just plain weak by Frost standards. Even ignoring such crass adds such as the car chase and weapons usage, the main problem is that the character behavior was as if the storywriter/director had neither seen previous episodes nor understood the characters (Mullett and Frost working hand-in-hand without acrimony!). In addition, the sub-plot of an advanced relationship between Frost and a young fitness instructor is ridulous and detracts, not adds, to the storyline. If you own the previous series don't bother with this one. If you don't own the previous Seasons, buy them over this, especially Seasons 1-10.
Movie Review: the last frosty touch of a great series.
Summary: 5 Stars
This was the last episode filmed of the touch of frost series.
There are no more so they can't put another one on this set.
If you love this series, which was one of the greatest cop shows ever to come out of the u.k. then you must see or own this dvd in order to see the last episode. I did feel that they should have put this last episode on the last boxset but at least we finally have the entire series out on dvd in our region. They have been out in region 2 for years. However you can't complain that there is only one episode because there are no more. And If they make another it would be season 14 on a dvd release. But it's been a while since they made this series so this is probably the last episode ever. So if you want to see a well acted tv show that is engaging and worth your time then watch this series and yes get this one too to complete your collection.
Movie Review: READ the description!
Summary: 3 Stars
Come on, if you read the description, you would find that it says "the story", not stories, and it says 95 minutes running time. Is that enough of a clue??!! Also, Amazon did not decide it was a "season", the producer(s) of the cover decided that. Give Amazon a break! If you like Jack Frost, you'll buy it; if not, you won't.Movie Review: Another winner in a long-running series
Summary: 5 Stars
Another entertaining entry in the series that dates back more than a decade, but continues to offer characters and story lines that intrigue and satisfy the viewer.
