    8.2 Great

    Only Part 2 RevieW!!! hide show

    Plot Details/Objective -» Part 2 of the Season finale, with all the players in position, things had the obligatorily to be interesting and exciting. What I Like/Disliked -» It is hard to say what I didn´t like. This episode was more than another setup, we had good actions scenes, finally Kemy died, and We had another Dharma Initiative video explanation. Jack, Kate, Sayid and Hurley are in the Helicopter, Sawyer jumped to save them, this was nice.

    Overall:

    Presentation -» (7/10). This seemed the replay of season 3 finale, however this time we had a information, which is – 3 years are passed, so it seems that in the Island the same happened, which is interesting thing to see in season 5.

    Complication Phase -» (8/10). Jack and Locke had another conversation, which explains why Jack had to lie. There was good action there

    Ending -» (8/10). The great thing here is that Kemy is dead and now things will be more complicated.
    Flash Forward´s -» (5/10). Weak this time, another setup for this Bentham, which only can be one of the main Cast characters.

    Time and Scenes Management -» (8/10). Great management, but I could notice scenes that was there only to buy more time to put something to the episode finale.

    Dialogues -» (8/10). As usual the dialogues is something that Lost don´t lose in quality. Jack and Locke even repetitive was nice. The conversation regarding Bentham was lost typical, to hide something that will be shocking. Was nice to see that Sun recognize that Michael is there to help them

    Action /Adventure -» (10/10). Every sequence of action in Lost is something good to see.

    Drama/Emotions -» (7/10). I think here the writers had some difficulty, since making something good and exaggerate it on the screen so that all people can feel something is very difficult, mainly because this is not the last episode. Only Sawyer jump can be touching, other than that, you may feel very happy for the fact that Kemy is dead or is going to die very soon.

    Suspense/Tension -» (5/10). Didn´t notice any scene that was successful In doing that.

    Mystery/Curiosity/Doubts/Hints -» (9/10). Another Hatch and is exactly what you can expect, another mystery, another revelation. Who is Bentham is the Big mystery here. What happened to cause only six to escape is something only the next episode can answer.

    Surprise/Twists -» (7/10). Another video about another Station was something nice.

    Expected more, you have a good scene with action, nice reunions, one or two conversation, a big mystery to be solved and all the necessary setup of complications to be solved in the last episode. I gave this rate, since this episode is only part 2, and the payoff is in the part 3.

    Nobody does season finales like Lost. Nobody. hide show

    If you can get over the fact that Lost may never be able to top the game-changing "Through the Looking Glass" of last season, there is still enough amazing moments here to keep their perfect finale streak alive.

    Jack learns the Claire is his sister.
    Sayid and Keamy have the best fight the show has done yet! Locke takes over the Others. The conspiracy of Kate's "son" Aaron begins. Michael makes up for his guilt. Sayid is reunited with lost love Nadia. Ben avenges his daughter, but at the price of killing people on the boat, including Jin- where Yujin Kim gives her best performance to date. And of course, the big ones: Desmond is Reunited with Penny, and Ben moves the island, and Locke is revealed to be dead in the coffin. Now they have to go back! Incredible incredible stuff! So many questions were answered, yet so many more have been asked (as usual)! Can't wait for the new season!

    Jack and sawyer find Hugo and Locke. We see Walt has travelled with his Grandmother to see Hurley. Kate Sayid and Frank are all at the helicopter when Sawyer, Jack and Hurley turn up. And so they all prepare to leave the island one last time. Hugo reminds Jack that Claire is still missing. One of the army men, who we all thought was dead, is still alive. And we learn that he's weird thing we strapped up to his arm, is connected to the C4 on the boat and if his heart stops beating it will blow up the boat. Ben attacks him and the machine starts flashing and Locke says u just killed everyone on that boat and Ben simply replies "So". The helicopter has a fuel leak. Sawyer looks at Kate and whispers something to her and kisses her and then jumps off of the helicopter. (Due to the weight needed to be lost). Everyone looks in shock. He survives and swims back to the island.

    An Oceanic Six-centric episode. hide show

    All things considered, the episodes for the three part season four finale are definitely some of the most exciting episodes ever of Lost. I absolutely loved this episode! The flash forwards of the Oceanic Six after they get of the island were great. I thought that they were very well done. This episode had some very interesting revelations such as the comment that makes it seem like Charlotte was on the island before, left the island and then came back. I really want to know more about Charlotte's past. The more they show Charlotte and Daniel on Lost, the more I like their characters and the more I become interested in Charlotte and Daniel. In closing, I thought that this was an extremely well written, well acted and well made episode of Lost, and I can't wait to watch part three of the season four finale of Lost.

    Jack: There's no such thing as miracles.
    Locke: Well... we'll just have to see which one of us is right. []

Allusions

  • Jeremy Bentham: The pseudonym used in this episode refers to the British philosopher and economist (1748-1832) who advocated the concept of utilitarianism, which basically states that the moral worth of an action depends on the greatest good for the greatest amount of people. His work was very influential among the utopian socialists, who sought to build the perfect community.

    Jeremy Bentham was a philosopher heavily influenced by the work of the real John Locke (also a philosopher). He came up with the concept of the 'panopticon,' a circular prison where the inmates could be observed by a central observatory without them ever being able to tell if they're being watched or not. This would create a "sentiment of an invisible omniscience" that Bentham claimed would create "a new mode of obtaining power of mind over mind, in a quantity hitherto without example."
    A simplified diagram of Bentham's concept looks very much like the symbol of the DHARMA Initiative. []
