Amazon.co.uk Review Accepting that by the time people get to season seven they tend to know the formula of 24 inside out, the creative minds behind the show respond here by emptying out every cupboard to throw everything they can at you. The core of the show remains the adventures of Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer, as he battles to save the world from yet another terrorist threat. With the action taking place in real time, we get 24 episodes set across a single day, and it’s one filled with twists, turns, action and surprise. That much we’re expecting.
Surprise number one in 24 - Season 7 though arrives within 20 minutes of the season starting, as the character of Tony Almeida seemingly returns from the dead. So what’s happened? Has Tony turned? What kind of threat is brewing? Ah, it’s these and many questions that are resolved at the show’s usual breakneck pace.
24 - Season 7 also wisely gets on board a roster of enviable acting talent. Cherry Jones ably takes on the role of President Allison Taylor, while Jon Voight makes a suitably sneery Secretary Of Defense. Add in the likes of Kurtwood Smith, Bob Gunton, Janeane Garofalo and Tony Todd, and it’s an impressive roster who put a straight face on the occasionally silly narrative.
Season 7 does find 24 inevitably lacking some of that original spark, and a few more ideas wouldn’t hurt it. But it’s still a confident season of arguably the best thriller currently on television. And, bluntly, there’s nobody who does all this quite like Jack Bauer, even if the man’s best days may be behind him⦠--Jon Foster
24:Complete Season 7March 10, 2010 Mrs. L. M. Penhallow(Burgess Hill England) Absolutely superb!
Completely gripping from the very beginning with lots of twists and turns in the plot.
Cliffhanging endings to episodes leaves you wanting to watch 'just one more'!
This time the story is set in Washington where spies and terrorists have managed to infiltrate the White House and the FBI. Wonderful shots of the city too.
Very nice to see some of the old characters back.
Can't wait for Season 8 to be released!.
Formula becoming a bit tiredMarch 7, 2010 J. McDonald(London, UK) Struggling to imagine that I might want to devote the time to watch 24 episodes of Series 8.
7 was okay but you feel like you do after eating too much chocolate - you promise never to do it again.
One of the best and most addictive shows on TV now on Blu rayFebruary 11, 2010 A. M. Brooks(Doncaster, England) 24 is must watch television. It is one of the best and most addictive shows on tv, this action packed show comes complete with twists,turns and brilliant surprising moments that will keep you gripped.
I own all the previous seasons on dvd and was excited when i saw that season 7 was being released on blu ray. This season has a welcomed change of scenery as it is now set in Washington DC with jack helping the FBI and old colleagues from CTU which was shut down sometime between day 6 and day 7.
With this being on blu ray the image is fantastic, there are no black borders at the top and bottom of the screen like there is on most movies that are on blu ray. The only negative with the blu ray version is that some scenes are very grainy and this can get distracting, although it isn't as bad on tv's that are under 40inches, the grain only seems to occur in the background but the character and the main focus of the scene is still very high quality at the same time.
Overall this is another fantastic season of 24 only this time in amazing hi definition.
24 Season 7 is a MASSIVE Return to FormFebruary 11, 2010 A. Cox(Ireland) I have been a big fan of 24 since Season 4 (yes, sadly Season 4 was my first one) so I instantly got hooked into this series after buying the box sets to catch up, and subsequently watched Seasons 5 and 6 aswell. Season 5, in my opinion, was as strong as any series in the history of the show and while Season 6 was good overall, it lacked something and the ending was a bit of a disappointment. I have a soft spot for Season 5 because it was so strong overall, and it was the first really, properly strong series that I actually watched on TV.
So Season 7 had alot to live up to, especially as the writers brought Tony Almeida back and placed him in full view in the preview trailers before the series was aired (Tonys re-emergence as a character was their big play for this season from the very beginning, they didn't attempt to hide him as a surprise inclusion at all). I think most fans were delighted to see him back and were curious as to his role, as I was.
The story to 24 Season 7 begins with Jack in trouble for his relentless torturing of suspects over the years, when the FBI come calling for his assistance as it seems an all too familiar face is back and is plotting to take revenge against the US. For Jack, his mission is clear - take this man down. However, as the series goes on, it turns out that this terrorist attack on the US isn't quite what it seems after all...
I have to say the writers did a great job with this series. They brought in a female partner, as such, for Jack in the shape of Renee Walker. In the early part of the series, they really made Jack out to be an almost heartless killing machine, and used Renee to show him up as this type of person at several points throughout the series, then ended the series with Jacks actual humanity very much intact and playing a major part in the story as a whole. Jack and Renees partnership is a major factor of this season and both the writers and the actors did an excellent job with all aspects of their often conflicting personal ideas and opinions. The plot to Season 7 itself twists and turns its way with several REALLY good and completely unforseeable twists aswell - I know a few of them really shocked me and I have seen all the series up to now. I don't want to get too much into story details as many of you may not have seen the series but all I can conclude on is this - I have already stated my love for Season 5 which, for me at least, was a brilliant series and one of the best since the show first aired. Season 7 is right back on track with the action, drama, suspense, and sheer brilliance of storytelling that made me love 24 in the first place. It very much makes up for the minor step backwards from Season 6. This series brings back everything we love about 24 into one neat and tidy little package. At the end of every episode of Season 7, you just cannot resist moving onto the next one - an addiction which was sadly lacking in several parts of Season 6.
Highly recommended from me... this is a great series and as a 24 fan, I have to say that I very much loved it 5/5
