Movie Reviews of Hawaii Five-O - The Complete Seventh Season
Movie Review: Continuing the grand tradition started six years earlier!
Summary: 5 Stars
Season Seven of the long-running series features the same great storytelling, locations, acting, writing, and music as its predecessors. The 24 episodes presented in this set have been restored to crisp color and sound, only adding to the enjoyment of the dramas presented...and what dramas they are.
"Hawaii 5-0" was always a series that dealt with more than just the cops and crooks theme; it dealt with the social and political issues of the day and was sometimes on the edge of issues that were just emerging. Examples of the latter would be "Diary of a Gun," a tale about the path of murder and death followed by a too-easy-to-get "Saturday Night Special," and "Computer Killer," a story of a computer "hacker" with murderous intentions.
Other outstanding installments include "I'll Kill 'Em Again," "Right Grave-Wrong Body," "The Two-Faced Corpse," "Ring of Life," the "Thelma and Louise"-like "A Woman's Work is With a Gun," "Bones of Contention," "Presenting ...in the Center Ring...Murder (featuring the return of frequent villain Wo Fat), "How to Steal a Masterpiece," "Hari-Kari: Murder" with a rare television appearance by Ossie Davis, and "Welcome to Our Branch Office," a lighter-than-usual episode with guest stars Cameron Mitchell and Frank Gorshin.
Two of the best and most tense-filled episodes are "We Hang Our Own" and "The Hostage." The former features Leslie Nielsen as a wealthy patriarch who seeks revenge after the murder of his youngest son, played by Bruce Boxleitner. Perry King also appears as the older son. "Hostage" deals with a traumatized World War II veteran, well-played by veteran Dane Clark, who holds a young girl (Linda Purl) hostage in an Hawaiian high-rise. Both episodes are well-acted and series star Jack Lord gets to show his acting mettle as well.
Even the two "weak" episodes of the season have something going for them. Boxleitner returns, as another character, in "And the Horse Jumped Over the Moon," a not-so-engaging episode that is salvaged by some stunning scenes of parachuting and the Hawaiian landscape. It's too bad the story isn't as captivating. "Small Witness, Large Crime" benefits from an early scene of a jet taking off as an assassin makes ready to hit his "target." Whether or not the plane shot was planned or just a coincidence is not important; it's still an impressive sight.
Like other season sets, the only "extras" are the episodic promos. It would've been nice if there had been some commentary from the last surviving member and longest, sans Lord, of the original cast: the late James MacArthur.
