LOST S05E05 [EPISODE REVIEW]


Is this show freaking awesome or what?? Wow!! let me say that a few more times!! WOW WOW WOW!! damn! this show is simply amazing!! I have always been biased and have kept 'Entourage' as my favourite tv-show/series...but when it comes to drama, mindblowing suspense, intriguing supernatural happenings, and some superb performances and even more superb scripting, screenplay, editing, direction and narration - LOST will always be far above all other shows!!

What an amazing episode!! I cannot get over this episode! I have already seen the episode twice in two hours and feel like giving a break to my episode review and watching it again! So much has happened in this episode and everything now makes so much sense and you just can't but continuously applaud the writers of the show of how about there creative thoughts have elevated this show to a whole new level!! WOW!!!

Jin is stuck with the French survivors (which includes Danielle), and after a few time flashes he reunites with Sawyer and others. Its good to see him reuniting and Charlotte helping him understand about the flashes and all...Fast forward Sun has her gun aimed at Ben when Ben breaks out that Jin is still alive and he can show her the proof...Sayid and Kate walk off from the scene and Sun along with Ben and Jack head towards where Ben would give Sun the proof!

Coming back to the island, after a few quick random time flashes Charlotte acts strangely and tells Jin in Korean not to let Sun come back to the island! She also tells Locke that if the orchid is not there then look for the well! Daniel Faraday stays back with Charlotte and the rest head on to find the Orchid/well. In the meantime when Charlotte is alone with Faraday, she tells him that she has been to this island and a man in her childhood in the very same island told her that she would eventually die if she comes back to the island. Thats not freaky but the very next part is when she tells Faraday that the crazy man that told herthis was none other then Daniel Faraday himself!! WOW!! But sadly soon after that Charlotte passes away :(

Ben drives Sun and Jack to a church and before entering the church, he shows Sun a wedding ring that belongs to Jin which eventually was given to him by John Locke when he met Ben. It seems that Ben is on the right track and is finishing off what Locke couldnt do. I hope he doesnt have any further grey shades to show! Even if he is still a negative character, I dont give a damn as long as the rest of the season is as kick-ass as the first 5 episodes.

Coming back to the church scene, Enter Desmond (yaaaayy!! i love his character!). Desmond approaches Ben, Sun and Jack asking them whether even they are here to see Faraday's mother. When they enter the church, Faraday's mother turns out to be the same lady that was shown in the earlier episodes who worked in the butcher shop and had a few conversations with Ben! Apparently, Faraday's mom would lead them back to the island!

It'll be interesting to see how Sayid, Kate, and Hugo will join Ben's crew to get back to the island. It'll be interesting to learn more about Daniel's past. His story is really one of the highlights of this season. I wonder if we'll get to see more of Locke in this season, after his brave sacrifice (whether they'll show him approaching Ben and telling him all about what needs to be done). I wonder if Miles has something to his character that'll further spark up the show!

Lets keep our fingers cross and hope that the rest of the season stays as amazing as it is at the moment or gets even better (it cant get better then this...but if it does then standing ovation to the cast and crew of LOST). 

Till the next expisode,
Over and Out!! :)

HEROES S03E15 [Episode Review]


After watching probably one of the best ever climax of an episode (episode 14), one expected episode 15 to be even greater, sadly thats not the case! The episode was good but what it all dealt was with the aftermath of the plane crash and the rest of the prisoners (heroes) fleeing away from the crash scene.

Sadly, we dont have Daphne any more in the series as she was shot by Nathan's gunmen...but you never know she can make a comeback probably after getting a blood sample injected from Claire. Anyways I am glad that we'll have a break from Daphne's and Matt's love story for a while.

Peter is still having troubles with his powers as he can control only one at a time! I hope Ando with his supercharger ability can help him sort out his powers. It'll also be interesting how Hiro gets his powers back,  if he ever does?? I bet he would then there would be no point of him bragging about his legacy and all! Matt's new ability of drawing the future seems cool!

Sylar continues to show his never ending cool grey shades. It'll be interesting to see how he'll confront his bioligical father and how the new kid that will lead him (Sylar) to his father play out to be! Nathan as the bad guy seems cool and realistic as he has the whole backup of the US government.

Till the next episode...
Over n out!
