Don't stare yourself blind on the tagline "Prepare yourself for the truth!", because that's how they're marketing the final two episodes of Prison Break to the Direct-to-DVD-market. There is indeed one truth revealed in these two episodes; one which wasn't answered before. For the rest these two episodes don't add anything extra or new to the four seasons. Is it exciting and enveloping nonetheless? Yes. Are the characters we all know back? Yes. Does it have the same quality as the 22 episodes before it? No, actually it's all feels very rushed and things are done to easy. And above all else, we know how it ends because the season ended with a fast-forward to 4 years later. Knowing the end, you can only guess what you'll see in the final break.
If you ask me, this is just a way to cash in some extra money...
If you feel that the end of season 4 was satisfying, then you don't necessarily need to see "The final break". For all those that can't stand the curiosity to know with what they filled two episodes, see it.
I'm happy to have seen four seasons of Prison Break. It's finally over and the story has been completely told. Now let's start with "Fringe season 1" and "Heroes season 3"!
