Amazon.com: Jack Bauer is having another one of his "very bad days" in the second season of the groundbreaking real-time thriller 24. Once again the hours are ticking by with more guaranteed cliffhangers than a convention of mountain climbers. Holed up in a Los Angeles condo and estranged from his daughter, Jack is no longer on the government payroll; unfortunately for him, this small fact doesn't seem to matter to President David Palmer and the NSA, who call him back in to the CTU and give him 24 hours to infiltrate a terrorist organization that is planning to detonate a dirty bomb in the city of angels. All Jack wants is to get his daughter out of the city, unfortunately Kim's new employer, the abusive father of the child she is nannying, has other ideas.
Fans of the original won't be disappointed, as there are more than enough shock moments in the first few hours to hint at the climactic build-up to come, while newcomers can quickly get involved in the lives of Jack and his family. There are some new characters to bolster the veteran cast and, interestingly (although not surprisingly), Jack's character has taken an altogether darker, more psychopathic turn. The danger the characters find themselves in also has a much more global, not to mention topical, impetus, grounded as it is in the war against terrorism. Although the territory is more familiar this time around, this second season is just as much a high-tension, taut, adrenalin-fuelled ride as the first, and one that will have you glued to your TV for the next 24 hours. --Kristen Bowditch
Very positive experience ^ I don't purchase a lot on line so I am always a bit hesitant....the product arrived in the time promised and in great shape thank you
The nuclear threat! ^ The kaleidoscopic facets behind stage are exposed with meridian objectivity in order to present us the in and outs behind the power's meaning. Envies, adulators, double crosses and pragmatism masked as opportunism, turn around the first period of Charles Palmer.
Jack Bauer will have to deal against all kind of barriers. Bureaucratic, legal and functional in order to preserve and avoid (no matter what) the possible blast of such hellish device.
There are many striking chapters like the confrontation between the President and Mike about themes such as the national security as well as issues concerned with leadership. The unexpected conflict around a normal and wealthy American family whose minor daughter falls in love with a citizen from the Middle East, as well as the multiple situations Kim will have to face, the unpleasant contradictions inside UAT and the hair raising chapter once the nuclear weapon is found.
Formidable edition process and an extraordinary script support the second saga of this successful series.
