HEROES - Season 1

Have you ever watch 23 episodes of tv series in just 2.5 days???

I did...

It was HEROES - Season 1

Maybe i'm just too lonely during the weekend especially near to upcoming festive holiday and i've got no working mood, thus, i bought the whole season 1 of HEROES dvd.

It's been long time i have never got attracted to TV series that suck me into it so much. I've got addicted, can't stop, can't leave my laptop and can't help to finish it, at least to the end of the season's last episode.

It's breath taking story, the story line was always a bunch of X-Men trying to save the world, but this it's different from the plain old X-Men from the movie series which you'll see so much of special effects and the entire story has to be told in about 2 hours.

HEROES talks about a Japanese guy - Hiro Nakamura, who accidentally saw the incident of Apple city about to be blown off by a bomb, the story then starts from there. How Hiro trying to convince another heroes to help him to save the city.

It's not about a single person being a hero, that's what i understand by the movie title "HEROES" means. Because there are bunch of guys with super power putting together stop the city from being blown into pieces. But these heroes are not ready to save the city at first, through some string pullings putting about 10 different human with super power together, they are trying to do what they felt their responsibility to save the city.

Throughout the whole save the world mission, all of them have problems on their own, a cute kid with power to talk to machines and instructs them to do what he wants - he withdraw money from ATM by just touching it, holly God, i wish i have that!! But little Micah has his problems too, cause his father is jailed and his mom had to strip in front of a web cam in order to survive.

A guy dreamed that he could fly, and after a few times of dreaming, he really jump out of the building... Well, this lucky bastard is saved by someone who can really fly... but why does he dreamed that he could fly but instead he's almost dead jumping off the building?

An artist, could paint the future, but he also painted himself being kill by a serial killer... too bad huh.. But if not because of him, this series would not start, because he's the one painted the city would be blown off.

A cute cheer leader who wants to be a normal person, but she tried to jump off from building, she's not flying obviously, but she just can't die... her wound would cure by itself, weird, she's sad because she can't kill herself... But she's the cause of why these group of heroes want to save the world!

With so many story lines putting together, you won't get bored by just 1 hero acting from start to end.

Can the future be change? Can the past be changed? If the history can be changed, what will happen to me? Can my previous mistakes be undone?

Very interesting point, if i could change my previous mistakes, will i be myself anymore?

regards,
GS
