HeroesSuperb Powerless "Tearjerker" Volume 2 finale. Wow. Why? Better than 1 Season finale. With all the hype was it worth it maybe. But i recommend people watch it just so that they can join all the dots. Best Season finale of Heroes. The writers do their best to bring this lackluster season to a finale. Atleast the finale was good. Sylar is reborn. Nikki is dead and Nathan there is a ? on if he is dead or just injured. Why keep Maya alive she is useless and boring. Plot holes everywhere. It is hard to give an honest analysis of this finale because it had so many new characters and three of which were useless.. Last season of Heroes, the show was amazing, with great pacing and character development. However, the finale was weak, under produced, and couldn't live up to the hype. This season, the writers did a better job of wrapping issues up, but I feel that it could have been better. Peter is one of the biggest problems that the writers now face. Having Sylar regain his powers with the all powerful Claire/Mohinder blood was a necessary evil, as Peter badly needs someone to match what he can do. An equal match. Perfectly balanced like ying and yang. Without someone to balance him, he is just too powerful and runs the risk of becoming another Unbeatable force. Peter just has too many powers now at his disposal that it makes everyone seem like they are inferior/powerless against him. For example, when he is breaking into the vault with Adam, he hurts himself, straining to rip the door off with his mind, when he could easily have walked through it with DL's power. Just stop time, think of what would look the coolest and then do that Peter! Rather than wasting screen time. And to destroy the virus? Destroy!!!..what did the writers make Peter do? USe his nuclear powered HANDS..to what? Atomise? the whole test tube..with his HANDS..of a virus..which is so contagious..that it could kill an entire race? He uses his hands?!????He could have caused the whole virus he did destroy it with his hands surely his powers could not have taken the strain And what happens? Obviously. Peter holds the virus now..what i wanna know is.who the hell told him how to do that? U mean..he knew that in order to destroy a virus...that was the only way?...honestly..i couldnt think of a way myself of how to destroy it..at least consult some chemist or something...pathetic...Ma ybe Peter met someone who has the power of intelligence but then what about all the naive acts that Peter has done. He's made some really stupid choices. I love Peter's character but sometimes it is laughable.

Angela ordering Peter's death telepathically to Matt is also pathetic as she makes her maternal emotions seem so cold. How could any mother wish her child dead no matter what. Even if she did to save the world she should be upset not normal. The most annoying part of the season was Nikki's death and Monica's story. Nikki hasn't been a great character, as we never got a good concept of her powers and her split personaliy and nobody gave a decent explanation that was really believable. Also, Monica being taken captive and then attempting to burn her alive was just beyond stupid. She can do whatever she see's on tv. Surely she has seen how people escape in these situations in movies or even on tv shows. Nikki's death was noble and feel that she should stay dead. Otherwise we may have another DL situation. Having Nathan die was also daft. After the standoff over the virus resolved itself, Nathan, Peter and Matt, decide to hold a press conference and reveal their powers to the world. Clearly, this would force the Company's hand, and yet everyone seems shocked when Nathan is assassinated. Mind you nobody mentioned that he was dead just that he was shot. The big problem is it could easily have been avoided! Matt can read minds and should have detected a threat unless it was the Haitian. Also, Peter can go back in time and stop Nathan from being injured or they could just use Claire's blood again I suppose. Lastly, what does killing Nathan really do? Couldn't Peter or Matt still reveal their powers? After all, Peter is a lot more impressive than his flying brother. Plus he has loads of abilities he could display. The biggest problem besides the poor writing, and unlikable new characters, was the lack of a good villain. Sure, Adam was malevolent but he wasn't that convincing nor deranged. Sylar was much better. Not only is Sylar crazy, he is very powerful, and thus, represents a real threat. Adam can heal and live forever but he isn't scary. As we learned from Maya's brief death, powers can seem really great, but if they can't stop someone from simply shooting you, they aren't that useful in reality. My last complaint involves dispatching Adam. Hiro should have finished the job. Adam cannot die unless he is shot in the head. Eventually he will be released. Hopefully the plot holes will be ignored and the writers and the producers hear our plea. If they introduce new characters/villains they need to give them a real purpose and power. Any loose ends should be tied up. With that i look forward to the next volume and hope it comes back bigger and better. Sometimes less is more but with quality than quantity. That is with characters. Plus points for the show has to go to Elle. She has been a great character. Crazy at times but definately worth watching. She has loads of paths that she can follow. Join the Good or the dark side. Hopefully we get to see more on Peter and Elle the best characters. We also have Sylar back to do what he is best at. |

HeroesPerfect Out of Time "A very special episode" This episode is out of this world and brings in more action than ever. This one ties up loose ends from the past. Brings new meanings about the virus from the future. Boring stories come to an end. Hiro is back and reunited with Ando. Peter is back. For this episode if i could give it more than 10 scores i would give it 100 but it's only upto 10. Out of Time is by far the best episode of Season 2 and brings Heroes back to business. There is so much of the story that was very interesting. All the characters are now coming together. All interlinking with eachother.
Posted Nov 6, 2007 3:56 pm PST
It starts with Peter and Caitlin in the future in New York where everyone has been evacuated and 93% of the population have been wiped out. Peter and Caitlin are captured and washed clean and tested for the virus. The officer's tell Peter that he is listed as deceased. They bring in Peters mum Angela who explains that he is the most powerful and tells him about his powers and what he can do like absorbing powers of others and gives him examples like healing, premonition, flying, telepathy, telekinesis. Angela tells Peter that he can change the future by changing the past and attempting to stop the virus. She told Peter that he met a man called Hiro that can time travel and that Peter can do the same he just needs to remember. Peter reads Angela's thoughts which jumpstarts his memories so now he can remember his mother. So his telepathy power has grown/evolved. Peter meets Caitlin and tries to help her but his powers accidently brings him back to the present hence leaving Caitlin in the future. Peter meets Adam/Kensei and almost fries him due to being startled but Adam regenerates so he is unharmed. Claire still not liking her story so keeping her bit very short. West comes to see her and brings waffles they kiss then he sees HRG and tries to run Claire tells him that HRG is her dad. He flies off. HRG wants to go on the run with family she doesn't. Big argument. Hiro uses his power of teleporting to get himself and Princess out of trouble. Hiro goes back to destroy the guns but Kensei is there. They fight. The place is about to explode Hiro tries to save Kensei but he doesn't want to be saved. Kensei vows that he will Kill everything that Hiro loves in his life. Hiro gets out. The place explodes with Kensei still in there. Hiro visits the princess and tells her he can not be with her and must sacrificr his love for the greater good. Yeokeo promises that the story of Kensei will go on so long as she lives and that Hiro knows that he did those deeds. So Hiro is reunited with Ando in the present. So this boring story comes to an end. Nathan goes with Matt to the company to save Bob from Matts Dad. Nightmare man shows vision of DL to Nikki and she flips into Jessica mode punches Mohinder. Tries to use the Virus on Bob. Bob tell's Nathan that he should care because Peter is alive and shows him videotapes of Peter. Bob also tells Nathan about Adam and that Adam wants to destroy the world. Nathan persuades Nikki not to harm Bob. Nikki injects herself with the virus. Mohinder tries to cure her but ther is no cure he is immune from it now due to the new strand in the virus. As you know i have thoroughly enjoyed this episode and so will you. |
