[QUOTE="LightPhoenix, post: 5690985, member: 115"] I liked the episode overall; some surprisingly well choreographed action scenes, a more in depth look inside the Binghamton complex, things happening that appear will have actual consequence, and bad hair. Only one thing bothered me, and it was minor. More in the spoiler block (since it seems people haven't seen it yet). [sblock]The Binghamton escape sequence as a whole was awesome. Bill, Cameron, and Nina taking people out? Awesome. This is the kind of stuff [I]Heroes[/I] really needed to do. It was great to watch them work as a team. That said, I [I]loved[/I] the Bill/Cameron fight. Not only was it well choreographed, but it did a great job of showing how Bill and Cameron's powers are fairly well matched... except Bill has FBI training, and Cameron doesn't. I liked how the cells in Binghamton this week were similar to the holding cell in New York. That was a nice touch. The one thing that bothered me this week, and last week as well, is that the writers are clearly moving more toward the fantastical. One of the things that I liked was that the powers were pretty well rooted in what [I]could[/I] be possible. It's taken more and more fan-wanking to make that premise work as the show goes on. Perhaps that's the direction the show is intended to go in though.[/sblock] Except the title, which kind of gives the game away if you've seen the movie. [EDIT] Unless you mean the final scene, which there were slight clues in retrospect and it made sense, but otherwise pretty well played. [/QUOTE]
