Editorial Reviews: Bringing together the final thirteen episodes from its maiden series, Lost: Series One Part Two answers some of the key questions left from Series One Part One, and in the true style of the show, manages to pose a whole lot more.

Continuing the compelling marriage of tense, edgy narrative with meaty flashbacks, the episodes here deliver some of the finest moments of the season. Without giving the game away, they cover more of the build up to the doomed flight, and the increasingly fractured relationships between the reluctant inhabitants of the deserted island.

Yet if anything, it’s the island itself that takes centre stage more here. As more of its secrets begin to become uncovered, the drama intersperses key twists and character development to compelling effect. And if there are moments where the momentum sags a little--certainly there are a couple of slower episodes in the set--then it’s all adequately compensated for by the time the credits on the final episode roll.

In all, a strong second half to the first season of an already-essential TV show. Bring on season two…--Simon Brew

Summary: Everyone's talking about lost
Comment: As soon as I saw lost advertised I new I wanted to watch it, and so far I have not been disapointed. Lost is a great show filled with drama, comedy and a lot of suspense. The way that each episode has been put together is excellent. In the first series you learned things about each of the characters but not everything as that would ruin the point of the show.
Many people criticise the show for dragging out to long but that in my opinion is what makes the show so great, it keeps you guessing week after week. what other show can you think of that has kept us hanging on this long, and been just as popular as when it first started? The answer is none.
I agree that sometimes certain events may be dragged out but as for the show itself I think that is the secret behind its success.

Summary: GET THE COMPLETE BOX SET IF YOU CAN - IT'S NOW OUT IN THE UK
Comment: I was slightly disappointed with Lost when it first started being aired in UK. I didn't think it deserved the praise it was receiving but I'm glad to say the second half of Lost Season 1 is a lot better than the first half - things really pick up and get exciting. I'm now actually really looking forward to the second season! I think the first half of season one develops the characters, mainly their back stories, whereas in part 2 things really start to happen on the island. And there's plenty to keep the viewer guessing until season 2 comes out over here.
If you are thinking of buying Lost on DVD and don't own the first half already, I would opt for the complete box set as it's now out in the UK (despite Americans having it months before UK - none of this part 1 and part 2 stuff over there). That's why this only gets 3 stars.
Lost has developed into a clever, well written show with humour, mystery and excitement. And from what I've heard the second season is 10 times better!

Summary: Best part of the season
Comment: Lost is a great series, with a number of genres that will appeal to a wide audience. There's action, there's horror, there's the supernatural, there's drama, there's romance, there's mystery, there's even 'When Wild Boars Go Bad' if that's what interests you.

In some ways, this is similar to Alias, due to a lot of cliffhangers and plot twist. But the show has a unique flavour of its own. Each episode, you don't really know which character is going to survive, what their background is, or even where they are. Perceptions are constantly challenged, until the last episode, you feel you know every character...but have the distinct feeling that there is still more we don't know about.

This part of the season is arguably the most gripping, as the charcters are now settled on the island, allowing the focus to shift to the island's mysteries. You'll be continuously surprised, saddened and confused as you are led to the season finale, an impressively complex 3 parter that will ensure that you watch season 2!

I could tell you more about what happens, but if you really want to enjoy the series, remain spoiler free and open to LOST's surprises.

The DVD set itself is excellent, with plenty of extras and commentaries to keep viewer's busy long after the last episode. My only complaint is that they could have made the DVD case a little prettier, as you are just given basic slimline cases for the DVDS.

***Warning*** Try to watch part 1 before attempting this set, or you'll just leave confused!

Summary: Huge letdown after "part one"
Comment: Having seen the final episodes on C4, I can only say what a crashing disappointment its been.

I remember when I first starting Lost, how gripping and tightly plotted it was. The first few episodes were fantastic - What the hell is it that's knocking down trees? What is the meaning of the distress signal? Who exactly is Locke? Can Kate be trusted? Why is a polar bear on the island?

Then at some point I found myself being more irritated than intrigued (probably around the same point I realised the writers knew the answers no more than I did). I love character based drama, but I couldn't really care about most of the cookie-cutter types on display here (the excellent Terry O'Quinn as Locke aside) and their personal demons. Most of their back-stories ran their course in the first half of the series. That coupled with the lack of any real direction to the plot has resulted in a series that's been content to meander along for too long.

I give the whole series an average of 3 stars; though if I was rating each half independently it would be 4 stars for part one, and 2 for part two. If the writers had written Lost as a 13 part one-off and thought a bit more about where they wanted the show to go they'd have had something far, far better on their hands. Shame.

Summary: I'm Lost in Lost!
Comment: Everybody I know was raving about Lost and I didn't have the feintest idea what it was about, so I tuned in one Wednesday night and saw Locke and Boone trying to open the hatch with a trebuchet. I was hooked. I decided to stop watching after that one episode and I didn't want to spoil it for myself. So, I decided to buy the DVD, but I didn't know they were in two different parts. I bought it and it came and that day I watched the first four episodes, absolutely amazing! When I had watched all twelve I realised that the episode I watched on the television wasn't in the first half. Then an advert on the TV said that the finale was in a weeks time. I didn't watch it and I am itching to know what happens in the second half of the first season. I can't wait. I will write a review on that too! All I can say is well done ABC and well done J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof! Thanks!
