Editorial/Description:Product Description: Nikita a girl accused of murder and sentenced to life prison has been taken away to a secret organization called Section One where she has been codenamed Josephine and made a secret top agent. Her job is to follow the instructions of her bosses and try to survive. In the final season Nikita continues to fight terrorist threats uncover the mole inside Section One and eventually become Section One's leader.Running Time: 354 min.System Requirements:Run Time: 354 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 012569801813 Manufacturer No: 80181 Amazon.com: The fans brought Peta Wilson's sultry operative back for one last, brief season of La Femme Nikita, and while they remain divided on the quality and impact of its eight episodes, few will disagree that this three-disc set of the cult series' last gasp is a welcome addition to their collections. At the core of the fifth season is an attempt to answer the nagging questions posited throughout the series: Why was Nikita recruited to serve with Section One? The answer lies in the form of Mr. Jones (well-played by veteran actor Edward Woodward of The Equalizer fame), a shadowy figure with a connection to Nikita's past. Meanwhile, a holographic replica of the deceased Madeline (Alberta Watson) is developed to replace her advisory talents ("The Girl Who Wasn't There"), and Section must ferret out a mole (with suspects ranging from Operations and newcomer Walter (Don Francks) to the still-missing Michael (Roy Dupuis), in "The Evil That Men Do") within the organization that's been placed by The Collective, which by the season's conclusion (the gripping "A Time for Every Purpose"), has come very close to toppling Section One. All this, plus the future of Nikita's relationship with Michael, comes to an explosive head in this series finale set. Supplemental features are surprisingly light in the fifth-season set; extras are limited to three deleted (or "canceled") scenes, and the teaser trailer (directed by series helmer John Cassar, and featuring some nudity) used to promote the season's debut on the Internet (It is notable for being one of the first television promotions to be filmed and aired exclusively for that format). A featurette, Season 5: Declassified, offers opinions and reminiscences on the show's conclusion from some of its behind-the-scenes personnel as well as select members of the cast. -- Paul Gaita

Consistent Quality
May 31, 2008
This fifth season continues the mystery and intrigue but also answers a lot of questions and wraps up the stellar series by the creators of 48. Of course, even if I wasn't correct in this rating, you couldn't go wrong having a DVD set with the lovely Peta Wilson could you?
If you bought the first four, go ahead

There are no English subtitles, but there is English closed captioning, which PowerDVD handles well.
I grew tired of the plot of the series by now (internal undermining worse than all the terrorists in the world, etc), but this season answers some important questions and is a much better ending than S4.
IN THE END, IT IS ALL ABOUT POWER
March 14, 2008
While not as gripping as the last half of Season Four or Season One, the producers and writers take the viewer on a wonderful ride into the land of POWER. With twists and turns that were intriguing, the rather subliminal truth of interactions and relationships found in the first four seasons, is now the core of this "second" ending of Le Femme Nikita.
As I never watched the show on television, I am unable to really say if the Fifth Season provides what fans at the time wanted or not. However, I do think that further episodes were needed. For me, Season Five ended just as things were getting even more interesting, and, as such, is yet another example of how Warner Brothers (WB) really does not care about their viewers. While they may have "provided" these eight episodes, if WB was really listening they would have ensured the show went on.
Lastly, I would like to comment on DVDs by Warner Brothers: they are long on promise of special features, formate, etc., but short on delivering. AND why is there not a single commentary on any episode in the five years by Peta Wilson?
La Femme Nikita The 5th Season
December 18, 2007
If you are a fan of La Femme Nikita, you will love this season too. Our Nikita is still struggling with her good and evil side. She finds out who she really is and why Section is a part of who she is.
