Movie Reviews of The Closer - The Complete Second Season

Movie Review: Just as good as the first season
Summary: 5 Stars

Season 2
1-Blue Blood (the murder of a cop also reveals a sticky paternity situation involving his partner's sick son; aka "Be Careful What You Blog About")
2-Mom Duty (a juror, the wife of a prominent doctor, is murdered and her mother-in-law is anything but sorry)
3-Slippin' (an SUV is riddled with bullets in the middle of gang territory, but none of the college victims in the SUV were members of a gang; aka "Be Careful Who Valets Your SUV"; one of the best episodes of the season with plenty of twists)
4-Aftertaste (the wife of a famous chef is murdered and everyone given a set of Dennis Dutton's exclusive knives is suspect, even the food critic)
5-To Protect and To Serve (Lt. Provenza and Lt. Flynn are on their way to a baseball game when a dead woman shows up in Provenza's garage, but they take photos and leave the body to go to the game anyway, and the body gets mutilated and moved in the meantime)
6-Out of Focus (the death of a paparazzo reveals a nasty ex-wife and a rush to get photos of an actor with his male lover)
7-Head Over Heels (a porn star with HIV ends up dead, and in pieces, when his head is found in a dumpster; one of the best of the season and the confession is priceless)
8-Critical Missing (a Japanese mother and her four year-old daughter are found drowned in what looks like ritual suicide, but the husband has a history of dead wives and kids; excellent episode, one of the very best)
9-Heroic Measures (a teen dies in surgery and the mother, a med student, conducts her own autopsy; hated this one and the ending is not satisfying)
10-The Other Woman (a young meth addict who causes her family nothing but grief disappears and the female criminal hiding out in her home is murdered; meanwhile, Pope's ex-wife Estelle deposes Brenda in their custody battle and things get messy)
11-Borderline (coyotes who smuggle Mexicans across the border are murdered and Brenda uses the help of a nasty traffic cop to find the real culprit; love Detective Sanchez in this one)
12-No Good Deed (a love triangle between an inmate on death row, a lovesick high school girl, and a lovestruck high school boy ends in the boy's death; very sad episode, but the confession is clever; aka "Butterface" episode)
13-Overkill (a mob informant's wife is murdered and the FBI is bickering with LAPD over jurisdiction; turns out she had an abortion and her husband was a "family man"; a shooting in the squad room ends in Brenda's suspension)
14-Serving the King, Pt. 1 (the death of a young Arab-American boy involves the CIA, who recruits Brenda to solve it, since she's on suspension from the LAPD)
15-Serving the King, Pt. 2

Episodes 3, 7, 8, and 12 were the best of the season (in my opinion).
There are a few unaired scenes (not much) on discs 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Summary of The Closer - The Complete Second Season

Brenda's back. Finally accepted by her LAPD homicide team after a year of hard-won victories Deputy Police Chief Brenda Johnson spends less time fighting her co-workers and more time fighting the bad guys - like whoever left a body in Provenza's garage or dropped a porn star's head in a dumpster or offed a drug-addicted heiress. And there's almost as much happening on the domestic scene as the crime scene: Gabriel and Daniels kindle a romance and Brenda and Fritz put the flame under theirs when Fritz moves in. Kyra Sedgwick reprises her acclaimed role of Brenda and makes her the brilliant complex flawed funny and totally irresistible heart of this crime-series powerhouse. Clue yourself in!Running Time: 694 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 085391113171 Manufacturer No: 111317
Deputy Police Chief Brenda Johnson may have put in a year already with the Los Angeles police department, but that doesn't mean the transplanted Southerner fits in yet. In the second season of the TNT drama The Closer, Brenda is less a fish out of water, but she's still not completely at home with her brash colleagues--some of whom resent her potent mixture of brains and beauty. All 15 episodes from the 2006-2007 are included in this four-disc box set. And aside from a couple episodes where viewers are able to correctly guess the ending about 20 minutes into the show, the cases are taut, provocative, and highly watchable. Much of the show's success is due to Kyra Sedgwick (The Woodsman, Something to Talk About), an actress who seemed poised for movie stardom before she took time off to raise a family with husband Kevin Bacon. As bull-headed as she is soft-hearted, Brenda has a wry sense of humor and delivers her punch lines with a gentle drawl. But don't mistake gentility for gullibility: Cross her and you've made an enemy for life. Even when she's stuck in sitcom-like situations--such as trying to hide from her mother that she's living with her boyfriend--Brenda brings believability to her situation. From the first episode (dealing with the investigation of a brutally murdered police officer) to the last (Brenda's attempt to bring down a terrorist organization), Sedgwick is riveting; no wonder, then, that the Golden Globes honored her in 2007 as best actress in a TV drama. Rounding out the cast are J.K. Simmons (The Spider-Man franchise) as Assistant Chief Will Pope, Jon Tenney (Fools Rush In) as her boyfriend Fritz, and Anthony John Denison (Wild Things) as hard-nosed Detective Andy Flynn. --Jae-Ha Kim
