Customer Reviews of The Prisoner: Fallout
Great Story - but cheaper in multi-episode format Listen very carefully to the standard introduction to each episode of The Prisoner, write it down, and now you know who Number 1 is.
Simple? Seems like it, but hardly anyone in the UK anticipated the twist in the tail that was "Fallout". Or if they did, they certainly didn't go public!
Contrary to a previous comment, The Prisoner is NOT about friendship and stuff. It's about ... well, just watch who The Prisoner takes home with him (or who he is taken home by?) and ESPECIALLY watch what happens to the front door on The Prisoner's London house after he goes inside.
The Prisoner is STILL one of the most unique, intriguing and enigmatic TV series ever made. And what makes it so popular all these years later? Maybe the fact that, in less bizarre form, it tells a story that we're all living?
Get the whole series, and enjoy - as a philisophical or even metaphysical metaphor, or just as rattling good, fast moving entertainment. It works so well, and on so many levels, there's something for just about everyone.
(The only reason I've marked this item down is because it's cheaper to buy the multi-episode tapes/DVDs.)
If you're looking for answers, you're still in the Village!
The Prisoner is probably the strangest, most thought-provoking TV series ever made. This last episode is the quintessence of reversal and paradox. It avoids comforting conclusions, luke-warm wrap-ups, and reassuring closure. In fact, things get so wild, the paranoia is likely going to spill over into real life! This puts a new spin on one's outlook. When this last episode was first broadcast, it provoked a riot. Apart from its philosophical musings on society, individual freedom, and identity, the entire series deals with two things, ultimately: love and friendship. This is never obvious, though, which is why the series is so powerful. And thoroughly entertaining! Fall Out is the perfect ending to a perfectly bizarre trip. Absolutely 60's, without the corniness!
So sixties, man!.
If you can remember the sixties, you weren't there - or you never saw The Prisoner. This, the final epsiode, provides an operatic climax to the hours of bizarre allegory that preceeds it. It is a very British take on the general paranoia of the time, and can be enjoyed almost as much for its evocation of the era as for its sheer entertainment value. And remember, the Village really does exist! Highly strange TV at its best. This is must be what Oliver Stone grew up on.
