The whole premise is ridiculous. Sara shouldn't be in jail for countless reasons: exoneration, self-defense (affirmative defense is not to be proved beyond reasonable doubt, but only by preponderance of evidence), the fact that the mother is officially dead, which would induce a lengthy process, so Sara would have never been sent to prison after being detained, there'd be steps to follow, giving them enough time to once again prove her innocence.
After his record, the General should have landed in a more secure facility like Supermax. There's no way he could pull the strings from such a facility.
The family subplot in the women's jail added nothing important to the plot. It was a cheap T-Bag ripoff, and nothing more.
The way they escaped prison was trivial, nothing compared to the schemes of the third season, let alone the first one. Character development was, like in season 4, not present.
It's ridiculous that Michael has a plan to virtually any situation, but can't come up with something better that using his own body to save the day.
The ending was ridiculous. They're free? No, you're not, morons. After your stunt, you're at the same spot as in the beginning of season 2. Except you don't have the $5M, and Mike is dead, unless he magically resurrects like several other characters from the show.
This renders the previous "final episode" totally useless and unrealistic. How are they all able to live that way, if they're constantly on the run? How are they able to visit Michael's tombstone, that'd be exactly where they'd be looked for.
I gave the entire show a 7/10, which is a good rating on my scale. The first two seasons were an easy 9/10, the third season was fine, but the 4th destroyed it. However, the end was good enough. They were free at last, it's what we've waited for, and Mike's dead, but it gives us the impression that he died in peace, maybe even having met his son before. But this extra ending screwed everything up.
Besides many plot holes, no character development, bad repeated story, the acting wasn't extreme too. There was no chemistry during all four seasons between Mike and Sara, and I understand that they were on the run, but at their last moment, that was nothing, just cold, and emotionless. That's not convincing. Morgan was like in the previous seasons badly acted. Alex was okay. Linc and Sucre weren't special.
Horrible ending, let's just pretend it didn't exist. It's feels like the last nail on the coffin that the 4th season was for the show. A friend recommended me Prison Break as it got better during the last season and the ending was in his words "unprecedented". That's a big claim for someone who hasn't watched many show, if any at all. Most people who rated this ending with 7-10/10: don't trust them. They probably haven't seen what a good ending looks like, and haven't watched many quality TV shows, so in their eyes it's great. It's like an Ethiopian child eating the worst food you could find: he'll love it, because he doesn't know the good stuff. Sorry for the macabre comparison, but it's the only way to make people realise how shitty this ending was, and the only way to explain those 7-10/10 ratings.
