A Clear Attack On The US Constitution

1.0

By Pro2ndAmendment, Feb 21, 2013

The "Hookman" episode was nothing more that an attack on the Second Amendment of the Constitution. When Scott Caan entered the gun store a berated the innocent owner he (CBS) showed their complete disregard for our civil rights. CBS should be ashamed of themselves. My family and I will no longer watch any CBS programing. I have e-mailed everyone I know and asked them to boycott CBS also. So far everyone is on board with me. Who needs CBS anyway? We have Blockbuster, Net Flix, Red Box and many other choices for entertainment. When Bank of America decided to hit their customers with senseless fees they revolted. Perhaps this is the start of people telling Hollywood to leave our rights under the Constitution alone!

Five-0 hunts for a maimed ex-convict who is seeking revenge on the police officers responsible for his injuries and incarceration.

7.0

"Hookman" was not the best episode I have ever seen, but it was entertaining to say the least. Peter Weller makes a very good villain as he did on "24". Though he was only on screen for a short time, it was good to see Masi Oka back on the show after a rather lengthy absence. The one problem I had with this episode is that it seemed to move a little too fast. It seemed the writers tried to squeze too much into this episode. However this is made up for to a certain degree by an exciting climactic shoot out sequence. In the end, I hope that remaking episodes from the original series does not become a habit. "Hawaii Five-0" should focus on its own ideas instead of recycling old ones.moreless

Thank you for your cooperation!

A recycled episode for a recycled series is a new one on me, but since I don't get paid, I'm the loser! Anyway, a sniper blames the cops for his missing arms even though he was robbing a bank and it was his explosives. So when he gets out of jail, he goes after the cops (and his kid). If you wanted to know, this was closely based on S6E1 of the original series. And finally the title of my review is based on the movie Robocop because Peter Weller's character Murphy had his arms and legs replaced by mechanical ones.moreless

Okay if this is a remake of the Original Series, i cant remember that far back in time, especially if we're talking over 30 Years. I thought it was a fantastic episode & in 3 years the only one to have a english title, always love to hear Nine Inch Nails. CBS you should put out a CD of your TV Shows, because 9 of your shows i'm currently watching has fantastic music in them.moreless

TRIVIA (2)
ADD TRIVIA
- This episode is a remake of" Hookman", the sixth-season premiere of the original Hawaii Five-O (first broadcast September 11, 1973). In tribute, the episode's title and guest stars are featured in the same yellow typeface as the original series. This also makes it the first episode of the new series to display the episode title, and the first episode to have a non-Hawaiian language title.
  EDIT SHARE
- Goof: When McKinney shows up to meet Stoner to buy the gun, he starts out by asking him, "Are you a cop?". He then says that it's the law that Stoner must tell him if he asks if he is a cop. This is an age old myth in TV cop shows. There never has been any such law. If there was, it would be impossible for the police to ever do undercover work.
