- Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2014One of my Top 3 all-time fav shows. Peta Wilson (Nikita) and Roy Dupuis (Michael) put on a clinic in how to speak with body language instead of words. They have incredible chemistry on-screen. Peta is gorgeous in this show and you quickly discover that she's not just a pretty face (and body), she is a legit actress who took this role to the next level. Roy was so good that they made him a regular on the show when he was only supposed to be on for a handful of eps. The show is really about them and their unrequited love, it just so happens to also be about a secret society of spies who fight international terrorism. This was pre-9/11. Looking back on the plots and stories they did, it makes me shiver at how viable some of them were. The viewer gets quickly invested in Nikita's personal journey as she's forced into this do-or-die secret society and her struggle to fight to maintain her sense of self in the process.
Rounded out with even more great cast who play equal parts bad and good. You end up understanding why they are who they are and even rooting for them along the way. It's a mind-bender at times but one thing is for certain...nothing is ever what it seems in Section One. The only drawback to watching it now is that they didn't have a huge budget for graphics and explosions so those are a bit hoaky but only a small part of the show as it is mostly drama. Others have played the role of Nikita before and since, but Peta made Nikita so uniquely her own with emotion, physicality, and transformation that she will forever be Nikita to me.
LFN would also be good for aspiring actors/actresses and tv writers to watch to glean insight on the great performances, structure of many of the stories, and how a great show can be done with limited resources and still be very interesting.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2011This series is killer! In the day, I would always clear Sunday nights to be home to watch it. Every role was cast and played to perfection. Operations was the cold-hearted bureaucrat who inevitably got results. Madeline was the quiet, beautiful but ruthless chief-of-staff slightly past her prime. Walter was the biker rebel weapons expert with a semi-soft heart. Berkhardt was the techie wiz who could run a Hammond filter and an FFT on a terrorist's video signal, deduce everything about their organization from it, and radio Michael or Nikita, who had infiltrated the hide-out and were hacking into the terrrorist's computer, the Unix commands to find and abort the rogue program that was going to trigger the explosion that would destroy the free world. Michael was the deadly enigmatic anti-hero who piled layers of stone over his agonized humanity. And Nikita? Ah, Nikita! She was truly lovely. She was truly loveable. But she was truly fearsome. The action was gripping. The musical score pushed right up to the cutting edge. The cinematography was awesome - those cold, stark, snowy vistas both set and fit the mood perfectly! And the tone was unremittingly amoralistic, violent, and ambivalent. Evil scumbags were sure to be relentlessly hunted down and unsparingly terminated. Yet everyone from Section involved would feel at least a twinge of conscience, whether they admitted it - or even realized it - or not. Had to love it. My only concern about this product is that the binding that holds the leaves containing the disc trays to the package cover is weak. Handle them carefully. I had to glue one back in within the first week I had it. But a little cautious handling is a small price to pay for the thrill of this set. Get it!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2013This is currently my favorite action/thriller series from television. The casting, writing and directing were excellent and the actors are wonderful in their roles. I compare all actors in other versions of Nikita to the cast in LaFemme Nikita. I wish this series had run longer than 4 1/2 seasons (season five is really only a half season.) The same people who created and produced "24" and "Homeland" are responsible for this version of Nikita.
I have viewed a more recent series that started in 2010 titled "Nikita" which starred Maggie Q and it simply cannot compare to the quality of this earlier production and Peta Wilson's Nikita. The movie starring Bridgett Fonda in the role of Nikita was well done for a movie, but I prefer the unfolding of the story lines and character development possible with a series that runs for a season.
I bought all episodes of LaFemme Nikita and viewed them in sequence (without commercials) and now this is my preferred way of viewing television shows. I have given seasons of this series to four people who love action/thrillers for Christmas this year. I love LaFemme Nikita and recommend it highly!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2011I bought this item from another seller Anchor*Media. Some of the pictures on the cover and dvds are not Peta Wilson. Cover case for each season is very good. There are minor glitches in some episodes but did not affect those episodes too much. Overall I am satisfied with the set.
It was so good to watch Michael and Nikita again after all these years. I had been indecisive for a couple of years to purchase the dvds. When "Nikita" starring Maggie Q first screened in my country I had to get La Femme Nikita. La Femme Nikita is the best series ever. The soundtracks, storylines, the characters, everything about this show surpasses Maggie Q's version.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2025I love this show and decided I wanted to buy the whole series. Every disc is in great shape...

5.0 out of 5 stars Great seller and totally recommended
La serie siempre me encantó. Y aunque sea en V.O., los subtítulos en español ayudan si pierdes alguna frase. Grandísimo vendedor. Buen envío y antes de la fecha prevista.Más que recomendable. Perfecta compra
- Van OosterwijckReviewed in the United Kingdom on May 24, 2014
5.0 out of 5 stars Just what the doctor prescribed!
i watched these episodes several years back on tv, but afterwards in Belgium only the first season was released on dvd .
So now I bought all US released seasons, unfortunately enough the first season I bought wasn't compatible with my european decoded dvd reader...
luckily enough it had no problems reading the other, never-released-in-Belgium-seasons... and I already owned the first-in-Belgium-released-season soooo... all is well in the end!
the amazon advert said: "dvd's are in used condition..." well, three of the five dvd-boxes were still wrapped in the original plastic, so in the end it was a bargain according to me.
