Another great, albeit shorter, chapter in the 24 Saga - ArcAngelMD
Redemption is a prologue to Season 7 and is simply another great layer to the 24 saga that has recently come to its conclusion. As usual we have a great cast here and an intense action packed story that runs at the same speed as a normal series episode.
It's not quite Jack in Africa, but we do get to see Bauer out of his element for a change, and perhaps a small look into his pre-CTU work. As a standalone this would be a great action film, as part of the 24 universe it is an even greater bonus. Definitely work the viewing.
Don't forget disc two for an extended cup (or skip right to that version). Zip It!A great in-between! - Cricri7
I was a bit disappointed with Season 6 but this movie reconciled me a bit the 24 series. The movie was a good suspense, even if it filled with cliches and follows the 24 recipe down to the last ingredient, and is good entertainment.
They have great actors in this one. Cherry Jones and our own Colm Feore are 2 actors that work frequently in the theater and hold their own against any script, even if is not the best one.
Like another reviewer said, leave disc 1 alone and zip disc 2 so you can get the extended version + the bonus features.RENT DISC 2!! - Rahnay
Don't be fooled by the fact that disc 2 is identified as "Bonus Material Only". It actually includes the entire extended version of the tv-movie.
As for the story, it may not be as gripping as previous 24 plots, but it's obvious that it's only a prologue to season 7. Recommended.
