The Final Break

So I'm picking up a copy of The Final Break today after work, watching it, and reviewing it later tonight/tomorrow. If you have seen it or watching it tonight as well please post your comments here.

Firstly, enjoy! It's pretty intense.

I liked it, but thought that Michaels death was somewhat avoidable (surely there was another way to hold the wires together?!)
Having said that, it was still damn exciting, depressing, uplifting, terrifying, nerve-wracking, enlightening, educational and fascinating all at the same time.
So 10/10 from me!

I loved it and I hated it at the same time.

I hated it because A) Once again Michael is still dead and yes I agree there could have been another way to hold the wires i.e. high voltage gloves. B) This could have easily been made into a whole extra season of Prison Break.

I guess in a way it was actually a good thing the whole scenario played out in just two episodes and not having cliff hanger after cliff hanger for a whole season.

I loved it because I really thought it was the best 2 episodes of Prison Break (outside of season 1). It was very exciting, depressing, uplifting, and everything Costellomusic listed above.

Fitting everything into just two episodes really made the Final Break extremely intense with more on the line for Michael then ever before.

What I really liked is that there was no set time to break out Sara, it had to be done without time. Every minute Sara was in person was a minute she was lucky to still be live. The guards are against her, there is a bounty set on her, the warden is against her, she is being poisoned and beaten, and there is no way out.

Not only does Michael have to rush to get her out of prison the government is watching his every step. I guess it could make sense that he didn't even think about bringing high voltage gloves when he's got so many other things to worry about.

Overall, great way to end the series. 9/10 from me... only because I'm still bitter about Michael's death.
