Subject: [chakram-refugees] FIN DVD review

I receive Request: the Replay Member Magazine, because I belong to
a club at Suncoast Video.  The May/June 2002 issue, p. 44, has this
review--
Xena: Warrior Princess, series finale (director's cut)
Long live berserker babes in leather bustiers!  Fantasy
buffs can't get enough of them, but perhaps the average 
American viewer can, as evidenced by this long-running
TV favorite's inevitable demise.  Still, modern folkore holds
that if you've got to go out, do so with a bang, and Xena 
upholds this maxim marvelously, providing an action-packed
finale that easily secures a position as the coup de grace for
the series.
When Yodoshi, demonic Lord of the Dark Land, threatens to
raze the land, Xena and her little sidekick Gabrielle arrive to
set things straight, promptly treating audiences to Crouching
Tiger-esque scenes of superhuman acrobatics. Good luck
finding a made-for-TV special with more ludicrous battle 
sequences--from dancing between arrows to one-against-20 
melees.  But despite the somewhat obvious climax, it's all in good
fun--a fact stressed by colorful audio commentary from stars
Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor and producer/director Robert
Tapert.  With a wealth of juicy behind-the-scenes footage, any
superfan would be remiss to overlook this package. 79
- --Scott Steinberg

The "79" is the rating,  By comparison, they rate Star Trek: The Next
Generation, Season One at 70 and Oz, The Complete First Season at 
84.
