Story:
I have caught up with first 6 episodes of “Heroes”. It started a little slow for me, but now I am fully engrossed into the story. It is nothing original and follows lives of several people with “special” abilities in New York on a mission to save the world. I think for this is where my interest lies – it is a story that tells more about the characters then about anything else. And I can’t ever pass a “special abilities” story – I think this is connected to the fact that sometimes I dream that I have one too. Who doesn’t want to be a HERO? This is an extremely winning formula.
Characters
Clair Bennet - Cheerleader. She is very pretty, but young actress has a limited amount of facial expressions and often wears one of “annoyed doe”. And I still can’t quite figure out how she can trust her adoptive father. If anyone is a scary monster of Mr.Bennet’s ilk and wears his sort of spectacles, it must show every now and then, right?
Mr. Bennet Very scary and perverse-looking. He seems to be one of the aliens pretending to be humans from X-files. He must be an alien!!
Niki Sanders She is interesting to me, may be because she is a mother. I had a flicker of “OTP forever” during her meeting with Nathan. And I found the scene with her and Hiro’s friend hilarious and a little heart-warming. I honestly hope that she will learn to control her better half.
Niki’s husband DL Is he the same person as the guy with Mr. Bennet? And is the guy with Mr. Bennet the same person as Sylar? I am a little confused here.
Mohinder Suresh Every time I see him on screen I have that “OMPH, he is so hot” reaction (it was hugely magnified in the sweaty scene) and want to run and watch Bollywood movies. But I was not a little disappointed that he didn’t believe Peter. It seemed somehow contradictory – one day he is trying to discover his father’s legacy, another day he is just drops everything and returns back to Madras. Contradictory.
Hiro I don’t know what to make of him yet. On one hand, his and his friend’s exploits are hilarious and totally make my day. On the other hand, he (though unintentionally) has that smugness which always rubs me the wrong way a little. I will see.
Peter and Nathan Petrelli Are my favourites in this show. Even though Nathan seems to be a selfish so-and-so and Peter a little immature, I see that Nathan has a capability for redemption and Peter a capability to mature and discover himself.
PS: YAY! I am going to watch some more of this today.
