Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

The second half of Angel's fourth year is a wild ride with no brakes and few stand-alone episodes. To recap, Los Angeles has fallen into perpetual night; Angel has mislaid his soul again; and something odd is going on with Cordelia, who is uncharacteristically aware of the effect of every word she utters. Wesley and Gunn are fighting over Fred; Lorne's ability to read souls is getting clouded, even when they sing karaoke; and the wounded Lilah is the only survivor of their former nemesis, the law firm of Wolfram and Hart, after a visit from the horned rock-like Beast. Things can only get worse--and, inventively and surprisingly, they do. Angel started off as an anthology show but in this season became so arc-heavy as to be almost impenetrable to the new viewer--but for the initiated it is as tense and suspenseful as 24 and even more prepared to put all of its characters in jeopardy. Things are so bad with the Beast, its hidden master and Angelus, that Faith (Eliza Dushku) breaks out of jail and back into the show to help out and Willow makes a surprise visit from Buffy. Particular praise is due to Gina Torres for her air of whimsical menace as the goddess Jasmine and to David Boreanaz for his silver-tongued devilry as Angelus and his brooding charm as Angel. --Roz Kaveney

4.0 out of 5 stars Angel at its best!, 29 Sep 2003
By J. N. Valente "jnscav" (Evora, Portugal) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
You have to watch the whole 22 episodes (video box sets 4.1 and 4.2) to truly follow the plot. Unusually for American shows(even considering The X-Files, yes.), there is scarcely an episode that doesn't fit in the major story arc. Charisma Carpenter's real life pregnancy constrains her performance and Amy Acker (the only female to get opening title credits in season 5) verges between the risible ("The House Always Wins", "Supersymmetry", "Orpheus") and the sublime - if misplaced (in "Shinny Happy People", "Magic Bullet"). J. August Richards has lots of issues with "Suppersymmetry" that are only briefly exploited later on - but he totally rules with Alexa Davalos on "Players".
Jasmine being literally a Divine Being torn between her own notions of keeping everyone happy whilst keeping Good and Evil not too clearly defined is not so much the Anti-Christ as the Christ for our millennium. Who must die, of course - but leaving the world with free will, subtly implying a much worse faith than she could have brought. Though the eating her believers bit was gruesome.
And on the shoulders of DB, AD and VK rests the dramatic, in fact epic scope of the season. I mean - "You tried to kill me now drink of my blood so you may live"? ; "I'm going to have a baby with the woman you never made love with, Dad"; "We need Angelus Back."; "I love you son, now I must kill you."
Add to that the spectacular performances of Stephanie Romanov and (too briefly) Eliza Dushku - and you have the darkest, best written and most coherent season of Angel ever.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dire, 9 Feb 2004
By A Customer
Boring. Shoddy. Pathetic. Words I never though I'd describe when thinking of the previously dependable Angel. The first half of the season was promising, but I watched in shock as it deteriorated into near parody.

The Jasmine arc is diabolical, with some of the worst dialogue I've ever heard on television; how the actors kept a straight face when working on it is beyond me. As for the "plot" itself, suffice to say that there was so much padding and so many cringeworthy moments, it was an effort to see it through to the end.

And what an ending! Apparently, the writers just totally lost it, concluding the series with an effective pilot for a "new version" of Angel, with the main event being something that would just never happen.

For the very first time, I'm not remotely looking forward to the next season of this previously exciting, intelligent and solid show. I'm sure die-hard fans will continue to heap praise on these videos, but from a more objective standpoint, it's clear that something is very, very wrong with Angel.

5.0 out of 5 stars too good for words, 8 Sep 2003
By Andrew Warke (Coleraine, Co. Londonderry United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
this has been the best season of Angel yet. i won't spoil any plots for those who have yet to see it but the final episodes in this season are simply brilliant. the only bad thing about season 4 is that the gorgeous Charisma Carpenter will not be returning next year, although Spike will be...
