| 24 SERIES FIVE DVD REVIEW
It's not often that a popular and critically acclaimed series manages to top itself after four solid years, but this is pitch-perfect programming from start to finish. The fifth season of real-time drama 24 was arguably the bravest yet. From its opening ten minutes, the show seemed prepared to take risks by dispensing with two of its most popular characters. |
Pros
- Great story.
- Keeps you guessing.
Cons
- Too many deaths.

DVD REVIEW:
As if it weren't painfully obvious by now, 24 on DVD is about as irresistible as the medium gets. This fifth season is perhaps the finest yet, boasting strong performances, tight direction and enough suspense to satisfy the most hardened action junkies. The DVD presentation by Fox Home Entertainment supports the series perfectly, boasting a top-notch technical presentation and a solid assortment of bonus material. Those new to the world of 24 are strongly encouraged to start from the beginning, but everyone else should consider this release a no-brainer.
Before this series of 24, I didn't believe that the programme makers could bring us another series on a par with Series 1, or even anywhere close to it. This series blew that theory out of the water. |
