I read a review about sleeper cell in a newspaper and they rated it better than 24. I on the other hand would not go that far. I did think that sleeper cell was gripping and tense but didn't have the twists and turns that 24 presents. Even though i say it isn't as good as 24, it is one of those dramas that has you reaching for the DVD remote to watch the next episode straight away.
Sleeper cell follows the story of a muslim undercover FBI agent who infiltrates a terrorist cell that is planning a major attack in America. The actors all give excellent performances and really make the program enjoyable to watch and the fact that the members of the cell are not all middle eastern is quite refreshing because it doesn't stereotype Arab muslims as terrorists, it shows that anybody from any walk of life can be influenced by others.
To cut a long story short i enjoyed it and it was well worth the money at the price. Sleeper cell consists of 8 one hour episodes and a two hour series finale.
Special features include commentaries, a documentary featurette "know your enemy" and a making of the series finale: a production diary. Well worth a punt at the price. I actually paid £21.99 off play.com but you can now get it for £13.99 from the same site.
