    The first seasons were pretty slow but the two last are without a doubt a hell of a ride.The character's shows who they really are,the story is more interesting and the final 3 episodes of the final season were all amazing.

    Overrall, one of the best shows on Television. The third and fourth season were the low points for the show, but Sons went out with a bang. I tip my hat off to Mr. Sutter.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. SOA S7 comes to an end, and what an end it was. Jax has given the MC the best change its has had in a LONG time at reaching the goals he and his Father wanted for there Club. I'm surprised that there are so many haters "hating" on the show, and with that Said, I feel that those people really didn't understand the idea behind the show in the 1st place and should maybe go watch day of our lives or something to that nature. Kurt has managed to do something a lot of other directors cant. He made you both love and hate (at the same time) the people within the show. He made you question your own values! Made you reach into the dark little part of your sole that you don't want to acknowledge is there. The Team at SOA have made this show an interesting ride. Sex Drugs Death and Redemption is what this show was about and it give it to us in ACES. If I had one thing I would have like to see, is a snap shot of the club a few years down the track without JAX, and all the chaos. I but I guess that is up to us and how we want them to be! To all the haters? I'm surprised you know enough about the show to be able to write such detailed information. You must have very boring and unfilled lives! why did you watch it at all? I'm sure Kurt wouldn't come to your place of work and slap the slushed out of your hand! In truth the show pushed us (as fans) to the limits, and as Fans we wanted to be push to the edge and look over into the abyss which was SOA. there will never be another show like SONS for years to come! Well played Kurt, Well played. Expand

    Sons of Anarchy is a great show with an amazing story line. Sons of Anarchy Season 7 did a great job rapping everything up. I wouldn't consider season 7 to be a ten compared to the rest of the seasons but it sure was exciting. I could never leave my seat watching this nail biting thriller. The longer you watch this show the better it gets.

    The substance/character development have long ago left town. I'm sticking with it until the end though since I've already committed to the first 6 seasons. However, if I had a dollar for how many people are/will be dying this season I could probably retire already...a bit over the top.

    The varying criticisms of this show are basically one-note. "It's a soap opera for dudes, it's too violent." Etc etc. The show has been consistently what it is from the beginning.

Etc etc. The show has been consistently what it is from the beginning. Even if the premise is far-fetched, its been always been well written, and each season has a distinct and engaging conflict. I think some have tired over its run because the show doesn't flinch in what it has chosen to depict. I think some people were holding on that somehow their hopes would be fulfilled for Jax getting out of the crime life. Its been a tragedy from the start. I can see if some people can't handle the brutality anymore, but it's not a relevant criticism for the show to me, at least when speaking to the quality. That is just admitting that the show isn't for you. In the writing and acting department, this show delivers, and has always delivered. I trust Kurt Sutter, which is hard to say about very many other writers on television. From an emotional standpoint, however, it does grow taxing to watch so much **** hit the fan for 7 seasons. But it delivers top notch drama. Expand

    I don't consider the 7th season to be a 10, but since I see too much 0-2 ratings, I decided to put 10. SoA, as always, is a great show. I must say that this season is much darker and more serious than others. At some moments it seems too much(I mean, how many people can you kill, ffs). All in all, it's still a great show. I hope the prequel is going to happen. Thank you, Kurt.

    Sons of Anarchy was like fine red wine: it just got better with age. Unfortunately, in this, its final season, it appears we're now past the expiration date. You never want your favorite series to end, especially one that that hooks you with drama as edgy as it has been, you want it to continue as long as it STAYS good.

    Sons of Anarchy was like fine red wine: it just got better with age. Unfortunately, in this, its final season, it appears we're now past the expiration date. You never want your favorite series to end, especially one that that hooks you with drama as edgy as it has been, you want it to continue as long as it STAYS good.

    The show has always been about Jax, the protagonist in a modern-day retelling of a classic Shakespearean tragedy. And part of the allure has been the connection the audience has with Jax, an anti-hero we root for as he strives to keep his moral compass as injustice after injustice pounds on his soul. His son. Opie. Now Tara.

    In the final scene of the season premiere, while epic in execution, we lose that connection as he executes some patsy fingered by the real killer. The emotional resonance we've felt in the past regardless of what gruesome deed he is doing just isn't there anymore, as he tortures and kills this poor guy. That being said, the montage of scenes set to a cover of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody is film-making at its best.

    Show-runner Kurt Sutter's original music selection continues to a show highlight. In the season's second episode, he overlays "Till its Gone" by Yelawolf for the episode's ending montage which adds significant emotional gravitas to intertwined scenes. It's worth just to see these ending montages "until its gone."

    Sorry to see it end. Is a fabulous show with great acting and production crew. The writing by Sutter is awesome, they guy has a crazy sick mind!

    Looking forward to the prequel. Thanks to all of the cast and crew for putting out an awesome show for 7 great seasons!

    Just watched the finale of season 7. I enjoyed the entire Sons of Anarchy. It was entertaining, actors were all good, the story line was great. I only hope..that if there is a sequel to the Sons...they change Abel. He was the 'worse' actor they could have chosen.. Sorry Abel lovers.. I know there are better out there. Everyone else was just fine. Thank you for the entertainment.

    The show ends well. With the except of a few small things, the shows wraps up everything and is consistently enjoyable. My only major complaint about this season is the unfortunate downright laughable cgi that ruins the final shot.

    Creator Kurt Sutter has found fewer openings to lighten the show as the story has darkened, and that continues to be the case. Still, we want to know what’s going to happen, even if the odds of anything good are about the same as the odds of the show ever winning the Emmys it deserves.

    While it will be interesting to see the way Sons tackles loose ends, in terms of how the series explores shades of gray, it looks like it’s all over but the shooting.
