THE LOW DOWN 

In this fifth and final season, beautiful and deadly Nikita - wrongly accused of murder and sentenced to life in prison only to be enlisted as a top secret agent by a clandestine government organization known as Section One - uncovers the mole inside Section One and also discovers why she was enlisted as an assassin. The three-disc collector’s set contains all final eight episodes from the fifth season of this cult hit TV show plus never-before-seen a bonus featurette and unaired scenes. 

THE VERDICT

Based on the characters created for Luc Besson’s film of the same name, La Femme Nikita was rated as the number-one drama for adults on USA network during its five year run. From acclaimed producers/writers Joel Surnow and Robert Cochran (currently working on TV’s hit action drama 24), the sleek, chic and powerful adventures of the agent codenamed Josephine conclude in this fifth and final season of the intrigued-filled series. 

Surnow and Cochran are still currently riding high as the brains behind 24 but La Femme Nikita is head and shoulders above that show, it's pacy, exciting and Peta Wilson is just brilliant in the lead. 

What is excellent about this particular season is that it plays out like a mini-series and you do get to find out who the mole is and why Nikita is doing what she is doing so unusually for an American action series there is a degree of closure. 

 

A must have for fans of the series and also stands up well to casual viewers with it's serial structure.

THE EXTRAS

Unaired scenes from select episodes; Season 5 Internet teaser and “Declassified” – a lowdown on Season 5 as the creative minds behind the series and select cast members discuss the show’s last 8 episodes.
