Heroes season 1
“Save the cheerleader, save the world.” - Hiro Nakamura (Masi Oka) to Peter Petrelli (Milo Ventimiglia)
almost same time with the telecast of prison break, heroes for me have become one of the famous show during its time. all my classmate are crazy about this show and copy series in their hardrive for own collection including me.
The series centers on a group of people around the world who have developed strange abilities. Los Angeles cop Matt Parkman (Greg Grunberg) can read minds. In Las Vegas, Niki Sanders (Ali Larter) has a deadly split personality, while her ex-husband D.L. Hawkins (Leonard Roberts) can pass through solid objects and allow solid objects-like bullets-pass through him. Their son, Micah (Noah Gray-Cabey), can “talk” to computers. In Odessa, Texas, cheerleader Claire Bennet (Hayden Panettiere) discovers that she is indestructible. Briefly left battered and bruised by a car accident, she heals within minutes. Her father (Jack Coleman) has secrets of his own. Japanese Star Trek fan Hiro Nakamura (Masi Oka) can bend time and space. When he witnesses the destruction of New York City while jaunting through time, he sets out with his best friend, Ando Masahashi (James Kyson Lee), to save the world. In New York, hospice nurse Peter Petrelli (Milo Ventimiglia) has vivid dreams about flying, but discovers that it’s his brother, Senate candidate Nathan Petrelli (Adrian Pasdar) who actually possesses this ability. Peter’s abilities are by association. Painter Isaac Mendez (Santiago Cabrera) paints pictures and writes comic books that come true. Indian professor Mohinder Suresh (Sendhil Ramamurthy) has come to New York to continue his late father’s quest to find “patient zero” who might offer the key to these special abilities.
As the series progresses, we begin to realize that all of these suddenly gifted individuals are interconnected in ways both large and small. Many of them also begin to understand that they must come together to defeat the mysterious Sylar (Zachary Quinto), a serial killer who is eating the brains of the heroes in order to absorb their powers, and who may be responsible for the impending nuclear explosion that threatens to destroy New York. With its complex, intertwining storylines and comic book stylings, delving any further into the plot would take away from the fun.
The interesting point of the series is the how they bring the connection about the character. the characters also have x-men like power yet with different story like comic book style that make it very interesting. while in the intense when figthting with the villain, the show can make u laugh with hiro with his childish character. there are also nice stun and and visual during in the show that can make u ‘wow!’. overall this is a must see tv series. it is complex when connecting the story pieces yet understandable.
my rating - 9/10
