I just grew tired of watching Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) go after terrorists while being chased by the government as well. I got irritated whenever I hear CTU’s phone ring. But when I saw the 24: Redemption DVD, I can’t help but put it in the player.

24-redemption

Redemption takes place in between Day Six and Seven. We find Jack helping his friend Carl (Robert Carlyle) run an orphanage in Africa. Jack has been served with a subpoena from the US State Department but he declined to honor it. To make things worse, the country is suddenly on the verge of a coup and Americans were asked to evacuate the country.

This movie is a redemption of sorts of the series for me. We see Jack Bauer again in the wrong place at the wrong time. It’s not his fight but in the end he managed to secure the safety of the orphanage’s children. But there’s one thing from the series that I really love but is missing in Redemption, Kim Bauer.

If you’re not a fan of the show then skip 24: Redemption. The movie was made to give the fans some sort of compensation for a forgettable Day Six of the series. Now that I’ve seen Redemption, I need to watch Day Seven. Anyone got the full season seven of 24 that I can borrow? Hehe.
