DVD Reviews of Angel - Season Four (Slim Set)
DVD Review: Intense season
Summary: 5 Stars
After almost five years I'm still sad the show ended. Why!? Because of a season like 4. Sure, David was not getting any younger, but two more season would have been great. Well... yep. Cordelia is back... it is a Whedon show, huh? But she do not remember anything. Angel has to deal with the fact his actual romantic interest do not remember him (I Will Remember You much???). More, she end up with someone flesh of his flesh (Angel has to be careful about his children and his woman... he should learn that). The season progress for us to see Angelus save the world... sort of. We have a reformed Faith in action again in a wonderful set of episodes, in which we can know more about the woman under the Slayer, her pain and gratitude to Angel. What is Orpheus? Angel x Angelus has to be one of the best moments in the Bangelverse. He finally has the chance to beat his demon... literally. It is also the beginning of the big mistake made in the curse of the show: the end of Cordelia as we knew. They could handle things differently, found another master for the beast, maybe had left Cordy as a Higher Power, or something, but... Overall, it is an intense season, with a sad end. Angel had again to give up something important to him for the greater good (first Buffy and now his son).DVD Review: wicked good
Summary: 5 Stars
excellent show. i spent the better part of a year watching all 7 seasons of Buffy & all 5 seasons of Angel. DVD Review: This is the worst season of any show I've ever managed to finish, and that's not an exaggeration
Summary: 1 Stars
I got into Angel as a Buffy fan, I imagine that's true of most people. I watched seasons 1-3 and liked them well enough to buy and start season 4.
The problem is, season 4 is terrible. Its all about Connor and Angel, probably the 2 weakest characters and definately the weakest relationship in either series. Darla is gone. Cordelia is gone. Lorne and Gunn play increased rolls, badly. Wesley is alienated from the others, minimizing the strongest character on the show. Every single episode for an entire season is just Angel and Connor fighting, and everyone else being pissed at Wesley. I know that sounds impossible, but its true
The whole thing, from start to finish, is a disaster. The only reason I finished it, and I mean ONLY, was that my brother made it through and said season 5 was a million times better, which is is. Even with that encouragement it took me several months to make it through this set. By comparison, I finished seasons 1-3 in less than a month, combined
Honestly, unless you're the biggest Angel fan around, there is absolutely no reason to watch season 4 of this show. Its like the worst episode of any other season, stretched out to be a whole season long. If I had not already invested 10 seasons worth of watching, between Buffy and Angel, and if I hadn't foolishly bought Season 4 before I realized how terrible it was, I never would have finished it
This season alone is enough reason to stay away from the entire series. Unlike Buffy, where seasons 2-4 are the best and the first half of 5 is ok, then the 2nd half of 6 and all of 7 are terrible, with Angel, the first season is rocky, 2 and 3 are ok, 4 is beyond bad, and 5 is great. And its just not worth wading through all that to get to the great part at the end. With Buffy you get the good right up front and that's easier to justify, but I would honestly reccomend that no one even bother with the entire series Angel, because season 4 is so incredibly awful.
Joss basically admits it himself because season 5 has absolutely no Connor in it, and next to no Lorne in it. Plus they bring Spike and throw out the idea that Angel can't be happy or he turns evil, revamp Fred's character, bring back the best bad guy the show ever had, etc
All the is Joss's way of saying "yeah, i know it was terrible, please forgive me" about the previous season. He did the exact same thing in Buffy, trying to bribe you into forgetting about season 6 by completely changing everything in season 7, bringing Giles and Faith back, etc. In both cases it was too little, too late
Anyway, I know this is a little disjointed as reviews go, but the bottom line is that you should avoid this at absolutely all costs. If you just absolutely love Angel, skip this season and go straight to season 5. I promise you it will hardly even matter, there's next to no reference to the events of season 4 during season 5 anyway
DVD Review: Typical Joss - he ruins a once great show
Summary: 2 Stars
Although a once hard-core BtVS / AtS fan, I gave up on Buffy in Season 6 and Angel in Season 4. Typical Joss Whedon - he makes great characters and then can't resist ruining them by introducing more and more plot contrivances and less and less subtlety, in what I assume is an ongoing effort to one-up himself.
This season of Angel, though well-written and well-acted, takes the downward turn in plot that started in Season 3 (Connor, the Cordy ascension, the icky and ham-fisted Cordy/Angel 'romance'), and plunges even further into utter crap. The entire Cordy storyline is out of left field and a real character assassination, and the 'Big Bad' of the season is ridiculous and more annoying even than Holtz.
Honestly, I guess this season is worth a watch if you're a fan of the show, but it certainly isn't worth buying.
DVD Review: Great DVD for Angel Fans
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this DVD for my girlfriend for Christmas as a surprise (also bought her Season Three) and she was thrilled to receive it. If you like the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series or the Angel series then you will love this DVD.
Description of Angel - Season Four (Slim Set)
With both Angel and Cordelia still missing, Fred, Gunn and Connor try to keep Angel Investigations running while they search for their friends. Ironically, the man who everyone believes betrayed Angel is the one who finally comes to Angel's rescue. Then Cordelia mysteriously reappears with no memory of her life or her friends. Confused, she chooses to take refuge with Connor?setting into motion events that will alter their lives forever.As the fourth season of Angel starts, everything is still as we left it: Angel has been sunk to the bottom of the sea in an iron box by his inexplicable and vindictive son Connor and Cordelia has been summoned to higher realms to await orders. Gunn and Fred are left in the Hyperion Hotel, unsure about what has happened to their friends, and Lilah is working hard to seduce Wesley to the dark side. In the first few episodes, some of this is resolved but it's almost immediately replaced by far worse crises: prophesies of doom accumulate more rapidly even than usual in this wonderfully gloomy show and a horned rock-like beast rains fire on Los Angeles. This last year is Angel's most tightly dramatic season yet--with a story arc of surprising intensity punctuated by the show's usual wit and sexiness.
Season 4 is presented on DVD in Dolby 2.0 Surround Sound and anamorphic widescreen. It comes with insightful, and often hilarious, commentaries on seven of the 22 episodes as well as featurettes--a series overview, profiles of the characters of Jasmine and the Beast, a farewell to the Hyperion Hotel (the characters' base for three seasons), and a discussion of the apocalypse that Angel has to deal with from episode 7 onwards). --Roz Kaveney
