Amazon.co.uk Review

The fifth and penultimate season of Lost isn’t, as those who have followed the series to this point might have guessed, packed full of answers. But it does nonetheless reveal more of the mysteries of the Lost island, and fleshes out dramatically some of the main players of the show.

Continuing to jump around with its time and narrative, this season also finds Lost in a more decisive mood, as some key genre decisions about the show come to fruition. And, naturally enough, it leaves things finely poised for the show’s final season, with a cliffhanger at the end of the season that, not for the first time with Lost, poses many, many questions.

So what’s so special about the Blu-ray release? The picture quality for starters, which by far transcends what you may hope and expect from a television show. Granted, Lost has rarely skimped on its production values, but the show is laden with detail, and it looks terrific in high definition. Matched toe to toe by the audio, it’s a solid upgrade from the DVD edition, and fleshes matters out with some welcome extra features too. Furthermore, there’s also an interesting, take-it-or-leave-it season play feature, that can follow just where you’re up to in the show to ensure you start back at the right place. That latter point, of course, isn’t going to sway anyone to buy the Blu-ray set. The quality of the show itself, and its presentation here, offer far more compelling arguments, however. --Jon Foster

5.0 out of 5 stars An intelligent answer to a narrative nightmare, 14 May 2009
It had seemed like the writers had backed themselves into a corner. Still so many unanswered questions lying in the past, but they had largely moved away from heavy exposition and the flashback device. Their answer was brilliant: to make some of the characters live their way through these missing pieces of the puzzle.

Time travel is an element that has been progressively introduced since Desmond's 'flashes' in season three, through to dislodged consciousness in season four, and now to physical displacement in season five. Those that have said it's been introduced out of the blue simply haven't been paying attention: it's been on the cards for a while, and neatly solves the narrative puzzle facing the writers.

The acting is to the usual high standard with some standout performances from Terry O'Quinn and Michael Emerson. The plot twists and turns, but the constant revival and resolution of previous elements (some stretching back to the first series) reassures the viewer that this rollercoaster has a sense of direction. Excellent use of sound helps cement a solid experience, and whilst the music offers nothing revolutionary, it's recurring melodies help tie the new elements back to existing themes with familiar musical cues and motifs.

What of the story itself? Characters previously mentioned only in name are now fleshed out to a satisfying level (most notably Jacob and Radzinsky). Furthermore, we begin to properly grasp the nature of the Dharma Initiative, see Ben have a chilling encounter with the monster, and watch the writers move all the pieces into place for the final series. Overall, this is gripping stuff. Just one word to the wise: the ending is perhaps the most ambiguous cliffhanger in television history (it's well executed, but it'll have you racking your brains for the next 8 months).

The episodes have been fantastic, but the one thing I can't make a comment on this early are DVD extras. This is well worth your money, and a must-buy for any fans of the mythology.

Roll on season six, and to quote Charles Widmore: 'there is a war coming'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably best season, 1 Oct 2009
By Michael Ward (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have never enjoyed Lost so much since season 1.

Finally, in season 5 we are treated with revelations about the islands history that reveal a few surprises. The relation between Ben, Charles Widmore and the Island is revealed through the various flashes. Flashbacks and flashforwards are now used in a completely different way to reveal the struggle of our Losties who have changed in many ways since the first season. The mechanism in which this is done may confuse people, but just bare in mind that this show introduced an evil pillar of smoke in the first season, that sounds like a machine and blows up trees!

Top notch acting from all concerned but Michael Emerson (Ben) and Terry O'Quinn (Locke) in particular since they, in my opinion, portray the most interesting characters. I find Kate and Jack quite boring, although they are more interesting than usual this season.

The only gripe I have with this season, is that it did not reveal much (outside of character development) about a certain organisation that I wish to know more about.

The season finale of this season is the best of of them all so far. Finally, after the events that take place, we are given a real clue to what is really going on.

My warning to newbies to Lost, treat Lost like a book, a journey! Do not watch season 5 unless you have seen all previous seasons, it will ruin the experience!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than they say, 11 Oct 2009
By Imogen Lh Lees - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This TV series is under fierce criticism saying that it has gone too far by including time travel but i say different. This series really lives up to expectation after the disappointment that was series 4. It includes the oceanic 6s attempts to return to the island to save their friends.On their return to the island some of them are taken to the present, with the new set of survivors, and hen the res are transpoted back in time to find the only survivors of the original plane crash working with the dharma initiative which leads to revelations.At the beginning most of the unknown characters are killed off and we are introduced to the young ben. The series ends with a dramatic finale where the ones in the past try to set things right with a weapon of awesome power we see earlier in the series with the help from Richard, while the people in the present set out to find jacob, which leads to the revelation of another godlike character being found out to be impersonating a character we thought to be dead. Luckily Vincnt survives and is living with Rose and Bernard who are retired. During the series, love is in the air between Sawyer and Juliet ,and the episode ends with a huge cliffhanger which leads us with no ideas for the final series airing in january. Overall this series has a plot which is totally unexpected,which is better than anything,even if it is quite far fetched. I cant wait for this to come out and totally recommend it to you
