In these days I rewatched the show, and I am newly amazed how fantastic movie it is. I have two thoughts about 24 to tell.

Firstly, it is an action movie, but with a very strange, acentric structure: there is an endless line of adventures, there are at least three stunning turns in each episodes. In most of the seasons act several antagonists, too: when Jack killes one of them, immediately appears a new one. There is a new secret behind each secret, there is an evil behind each evil. The show is full of mistery, violence, sacrifice, changes of identity, upliftong, poignant and horroistic moments. Because these treats 24 seems to me being a modern Arabian Nights, a magical world, an inexhaustable array of miracles.

Second speciality of 24 is that in this show each character has strong personality, identity, even thoses who appear on the screen just for some moments. Just one example. In episode 9. Of season 1. Jack takes a woman hostige. This hostige is a totally insignificant character, but you know surprisingly much about her: she has to stand trial for drunk driving, she has to nurse her desparately ill sister, therefore her husband left her. These lively, developed and interesting characters make the show more magic. Its world seems to be real, full of exciting details, it is worth to be discovered.
