Heroes-The Kindness of Strangers

Posted in The Tube at 1:40 pm by earl


This was actually one of the better episodes, and I kinda feel like its starting to get into its flow that it did and that made last season so good.

Micah is adjusting to his new life in New Orleans, where we discover that his same-age cousin likes Wrestling, his grandma has a unique sense of humor, and his older cousin, Monica, has a power to duplicate and perform anything she sees-Wrestling moves, culinary fancies. She then
shows these off after being rejected for her better job by pwning a would-be robber.

The investigation into the Helix Serial Killer (See, I have a name for it now) continued, and Angela confesses to Kaito’s murder, which Matt discovers is false. She’s just doing it to keep the world about knowing about their group. Matt and Nathan find a picture showing all the members of the group, including Charles Devoax, Bob, Linderman, Angela, Kaito, the blurred face of Dallas, three unidentified women and two u.i. men. Also it showed a man who Matt says is his father and Molly says is the Nightmare Man. Matt gets Molly to look for his father, but when she finds him, she goes into shock, thinking screaming for Matt to help her.

Bennet, scared due to last week’s picture, starts asking Claire a lot of questions. She goes ona date with West blah blah blah and then she tells Bennet she was trying out for cheerleading instead, which she is considering. Bennet then leaves with The Haitian to go to Odessa and Ukraine to see more pictures.

We got more Sylar moments when he was found by Maya, Alejandro, and Derek (the dude with the car). He uses his real name Gabriel Gray, and discovers Maya and Alejandro’s powers, right as they were leaving a newstand where Derek started to call the police after seeing their wanted sign. Sylar killed Derek and by the looks on his face, it looks like he’ll try to do something in the future with Maya and Alejandro. I still think it was hillarious seeing Sylar nearly get killed by Maya when she freaked out, causing Sylar to yell out “What are you doing to me!!!”

The Seeker:Dark is Rising

(Grade:B-)-This movie was a lot better than I expected. It follows Will Stanton, a regular average joe who discovers he is a member of a secret super-powered society creatively named “The Light” that is collecting 6 signs to defeat, guess who, “The Dark”, which is led by the once Heroes guest star who made this movie for me, Christopher Eccleston. He’s awesome! Anyway, the movie spanned about 1 and a half hours, which suits, but kinda felt dragged out in certain areas. It takes about 1 hour for him to get used to it. But the kid who plays the main character does a pretty good job. Although I could see this movie better if it had used a man as the main character. OVerall, this is a pretty solid movie for October.
