DVD Reviews of 24 - Season Four
DVD Review: Didn't hold my attention
Summary: 3 Stars
I can honestly say I'm HOOKED on this series. I found it just within the last month and loved it so much I ordered EVERY season off Amazon.com right away. I had just watched all of Season 2 but had not received Season 3 yet so I jumped to Season 4. It just didn't hold my attention. Way too many soap opera moments for this to be an action series. I couldn't get through the second DVD before I gave up. I haven't given up on the series though and I've enjoyed all the other seasons I've watched.DVD Review: stupendous
Summary: 5 Stars
Just when it seemed that 24 couldn't get any better, it did. A lot better.
Season Four introduces the usual agonizing plot twists but adds several exceptional new players: 'Edgar', Chloe's geeky (and ample) sidekick, Secretary of Defense Joseph Heller, his daughter Audrey, and the steely, purposeful terrorist Marwan.
Jack Bauer continues as the show's pivot: preternaturally principled in defense of his country, tactically beyond the pale, always on the edge of love but never quite achieving it.
The show is riveting, compelling, addictive. Superlatives need not apply, we've already got most of the available ones on salary and hard at work.
Good grief, this is excellent television, a periodic DVD treat that's right up there with fried scrapple, my mother's macaroni and cheese, and just one or two other really good things.
DVD Review: All About Relationships
Summary: 5 Stars
Just like the previous three seasons of "24", Season Four will take you on a 24-hour thrill-ride, with mind-blowing action, drama, and twists and turns in every episode. Though the basic formula of the show is the same (CTU is still fighting terrorism, Jack Bauer is still really intense, etc.), the writers/producers are still able to produce some fantastic dramatic scenes, not exactly an easy feat after three years.
However, what really sets this season apart from the previous three is its focus on the relationship between characters. First, there is the relationship between Bauer and Audrey Raines, who is pulled into the terrorism when her father, the Secretary of Defense, is abducted early in the day. Her relationship with Jack is tested in nearly every episode, and that pairing ultimately provides the most drama of the entire season.
Also, agent Michelle Dessler is back, this time as head of CTU, and her rocky relationship with former CTU agent Tony Almeida is showcased throughout the season. Though I won't give away all of Tony's involvement in this fourth season, I will say that he at least plays a part in the day's activities.
So far, after watching the first four seasons of "24", each season has had a certain plot or character "thread" that really made the show come alive for me. In Season One it was the confliction of President David Palmer. In Season Two it was the all-out intensity of Jack Bauer. In Season Three it was the downright horrors of biological terrorism. Thus, in Season Four, the "thread" I enjoyed the most was the relationships between many of the main characters. The terrorism-stopping plots were still interesting, and the action scenes were still intense, but (at least to me) this season really was all about the relationships.
I am very interested to see what "thread" will hook me in Season Five!
DVD Review: 24 Season 4
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought it for my brother and his g.f. for Christmas. They're addicted to the series and they love it. DVD Review: primetime pro-torture fun for the family
Summary: 1 Stars
Ohh those darn bureaucrats! Releasing a known terrorist BEFORE he could be properly tortured. Well at least they KNEW, like had real metaphysical certitude it was a bonified evil doer. Often in the real world part of the problem is they don't know. But we're not dealing with reality here folks. Oh, I'm sorry, does that bother any fans out there? Just moments before they can do what in "24" always must be done to save the day, guess who shows up to mess up everything? You probably guessed it: a liberal. Well a guy that is a sort of talk radio Fox news sterotype of a liberal -- a lawyer from an organization called -get this- "Amnesty Global". Lol, For those not familiar, there is something in the real world called Amnesty International. It is an "international non-governmental organization which defines its mission as 'to undertake research and action focused on preventing and ending abuses of the rights to physical and mental integrity, freedom of conscience and expression, and freedom from discrimination, within the context of its work to promote all human rights'". Amnesty International does wonderful work throughout the world. But back to the show, so like this weasel lawyer spouts off a bunch of stuff about the Geneva Conventions and millions of people almost die because of it! Luckily lonestar Jack Bauer (J.B. are popular initials for super-agents) does the right thing, quiting the Terrorist Unit, Counter Terrorist Unit, becomes a private citizen and then is free to break the suspect's fingers. I was reading about an event sponsored by the ultra-rightwing Heritage Foundation at which "24"'s producers along with three cast members appeared with Homeland Security Chief Michael Chertoff. A discussion was moderated by Rush Limbaugh about the public image of US terrorism policy.
"24" repeatedly made the argument that torture works. "24" put forward to the American television viewing public the "ticking time bomb" case for torture: we must torture a suspect, or else thousands, maybe millions will die soon. Probably within the next hour. There has never been a ticking time bomb case but lone super-agent Jack Bauer faces them all the time. Yea it's just a TV show, but it's funny how TV has always both reflected and shaped the attitudes and views of the American public ain't it? Funny too how many of those who would shout the loudest it's just a TV show and unconcerned with violence and torture, are also often those more bothered by a naughty word or "wardrobe malfunction". "24" is the ultimate Bush post 9-11 America War On Terra TV series. Time for Bauer to retire.
Description of 24 - Season Four
Emmy nominated for Best Drama series, 24 Season 4 is considered by fans and critics to be the best season yet. Starring Keifer Sutherland in his Emmy nominated role as Jack Bauer, 24 Season 4 received the highest broadcast ratings of the series' 4 year history.The loaded 7-disk set includes a ground-breaking extra, shot on location during Season 5 production, which bridges Season 4 with Season 5 and gives clues about what is to come. 24 Season 4 on DVD is the only place to follow every moment of suspense, mystery and action of this worldwide smash hit television show!
Oh boy. Here we go again! Just another exciting day in the life of 24 super-agent Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland). The season kicks off with a deadly terrorist strike resulting in the kidnapping of his new boss, the U.S. Secretary of Defense James Heller (William Devane). Although a fired, ex-employee of the Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU), it is no surprise who is going to shift into full gear to bring the terrorists to justice. However, it doesn't take the super-agent long to discover the kidnapping of his boss is part of a much larger plan, master-minded by Habib Marvan (Arnold Vosloh) the middle eastern terrorist cell leader the US government has been trying to track down for years. Considered by many to be the best season of the first four, 24 - Season 4 is a definite departure from the first three seasons. First, the cast is almost entirely new. Second, the pacing of each episode does not seem as frantic. There appears to be a shift from the reliance on plot-shifting cliff hangers (which in some ways dragged down the quality of Season 3), to a focus on complex, over-arcing, multiple storylines, albeit very violent. What may be missing in superficial action clich?s is definitely compensated for in a richer plot. That's not to say the show has slowed down; it's still amped up beyond anything else on TV, but compared to the previous seasons, 24 has gotten a lot smarter, and in turn, better. --Rob Bracco
