Summary: Good times...until the last 5 minutes
Comment: This was a trip down memory lane. This would be just as good as the first V mini-series if it were not for the effort to jump the shark in the last five minutes. Granted, this led to the short lived T.V. series, but the truly important part is that it answered some important questions from the first mini-series. All-in-all it is a fun ride.

Summary: Gotta get used to seeing this.
Comment: Last time I watched this was back in the day when TV were of poor quality and it's kinda weird watching this as an Adult. I love 'V' and it was a great miniseries.

Summary: Conversion chambers, lizard babies, and red dust galore!
Comment: V: THE FINAL BATTLE was the much anticipated follow-up to NBC's 1983 mega hit V THE MINISERIES, a science fiction alien invasion piece which doubled as a World War II/Holocaust allegory.

Jane Badler returns as the evil Diana along with Marc Singer as the heroic cameraman turned resistance fighter, Mike Donavan, and Faye Grant as the medical student turned leader of the resistance Juliet Parrish. In Part One, we see the climactic takeover of the Visitors' historical televised address to the world by the resistance in which Juliet Parrish personally exposes John the supreme commander on international television. Part Two shows the tortuous conversion of Julie as well as the highly anticipated birth of Robin's...twins. Part Three shows the deliverance of the miraculous "Red Dust" into the hands of the resistance and the climactic final confrontation aboard Diana's mother ship.

When one recalls the greatest television miniseries, ROOTS comes immediately to mind. So does THE WINDS OF WAR, WAR AND REMEMBRANCE, and SHOGUN. V stands apart from all of these. It was never intended to be serious drama, serious romance, or even serious science fiction for that matter. It was intended to be serious fun! And on that level it succeeded more than your average run-of-the-mill summer blockbuster.

None of the actors in this show went on to bigger and better things, and yet V: THE FINAL BATTLE (or V in general) has earned its place not only among the science fiction greats of television history but also among the great miniseries events of television history as well.

Summary: Sci-Fi Television At It's Finest!
Comment: And so we have the conclusion to the brilliant first part of the mini-series that enthralled me when I was a kid over 25 years ago and boy was it worth the wait! Who can forget Robin's childbirth of twins for example? Very few television series from my childhood age well but you can count "V" as one of them. The picture quality of this dvd is also very good although not perfect but still better than the first mini-series; the surprising thing though is that the first series dvd came with Dolby Digital Surround sound while this installment comes only in the Mono. Nevertheless, this dvd together with the first mini-series represent the best way to remember the great sci-fi drama and for me I can do without the other follow up episodes which in my opinion were very poor and do not do justice to the "V" franchise.

TV Sci-Fi at its best and a dvd version that will not disappoint although it would be nice to have future restoration done on both the picture and sound quality with good surround sound options perhaps on the Blu-ray format.
