DVD Reviews of 24: Redemption
DVD Review: A Good Filler Between Seasons
Summary: 4 Stars
This two hour movie is long overdue for 24 fans. As last season was cancelled totally due to the writer's strike, it seems like it has been forever since Jack Bauer was doing his thing.
The movie itself is ok. It has some pretty good action. There is not much of a storyline, but it is only two hours.
Jack is terrific as always. He is helping a friend out at an orphanage he runs in Africa. There is a civil war in progress and the children are targeted. Enter Jack Bauer and watch out bad guys.
Any fan of 24 should probably watch this movie to help bridge to season seven. Presumably there are some parts in this that will help one understand the new season better when it starts in January.
DVD Review: Jack Bauer in full form!
Summary: 4 Stars
If you like Jack Bauer you will most likely like 24:Redemption. This 2 hour special served it's purpose of setting up for season 7, which will allow season 7 to jump right into the action. Yes it was light on story and heavy on action, but that's what 24 is all about. Jack Bauer may have missed a season due to the writer's strike, but he looks prepared to come back in full form!DVD Review: Get it, but not for the extras
Summary: 4 Stars
24 Redemption is a great 'movie', it's 24 at it's best. I definitely recommend it, but not for the extras. The 'extended version' is a few extra seconds here and there, and other than that it's just an extra 6-8 minutes of credits. Not much of the other stuff on the dvd is really worth watching, except the main feature, of course. And don't fall for the "2 hour event" promo. It's 87 minutes.
But anyway, any 24 fan should have it.
DVD Review: Money maker for Fox
Summary: 1 Stars
24: Redemption This is the sorriest 24 movie to date. It was advertized as 2 hours, it was 86 minutes. It had a broadcast version and an extended version. The only difference was the extended version had an introductory segment of season 7. The actual movie on both versions was identical. This was a huge Fox ripoff and is the last Fox movie I will ever buy. If you're smart, you would bypass this one!DVD Review: why but this now??
Summary: 4 Stars
I watched this when it was live on TV, and when I saw the commercial that this was being released on DVD, the only thought I had was: Why buy this now when it will more than likely be included in the Season Seven boxset when it is released?? If it isn't I can buy it then and without having to worry about paying for the same thing twice.
