2.0 out of 5 stars
overpriced!!!, September 10, 2007
This review is from: Smallville - The Complete First Five Seasons (DVD)
I give this two stars instead of one because I really love the show, but check out the prices, people! At the time of this writing, you can get each of the first five seasons for $24 a piece ($24 x 5 = $120) or you can buy this set of the first five seasons for $200. Hmmmmm.

Meh... It's alright I guess.., April 29, 2007
This review is from: Smallville - The Complete First Five Seasons (DVD)
After spending a good 4 months on and off watching this show inbetween everything else that came in its way (I guess i was looking for excuses to stop) I found this show to be pretty good, just the annoying frequency on some characters got to me after a while.
I'm in the fifth season and I have to say the pragmatic "death" that happens in this season ( i wont spoil it for you, but if you've seen it you will know what im on about) is done with what is probably the best character this show had to offer, dispite their annoying habits on the screen too.
I shall probably buy season six and finish off the series, only because of the time I commited so far. I like how the writers have managed to expand on whats classically seen as background characters (and introduced new ones) but the script was pretty weak for dialouge, almost like you can tell they are reading off script prompters at some points! However, there were some golden points, dont get me wrong. I just found them outshined by the amount of crap involved. But then again, this might just be me being jaded.
Worth it if you are into the mindless drabble or teen dramas. Good in the large scheme of the overral story.
Did anyone notice the price hike on amazon for these five seasons? I think I bought it off here several months back for $150 (US)? Certainly not as expensive as its become!

Smallville review, January 11, 2007
This review is from: Smallville - The Complete First Five Seasons (DVD)
In my opinion this is the only way to watch the Smallville series. Each week adds to the ongoing sub-plot, if you watch this series out of sequence or leave a long time between episodes, you lose somthing of the whole (in my opinion)
I highly recommended getting the entire series 1-5 and watch it in sequence.
