HEROES : The Best Mutant TV Series


Heroes is an American science fiction drama television series, created by Tim Kring, which premiered on NBC on September 25, 2006. The show tells the story of several people who "thought they were like everyone else... until they woke with incredible abilities" such as telepathy, time travel and flight. These people soon realize they have a role in preventing a catastrophe and saving mankind.[1]

The series follows the writing style of American comics by doing short, multi-episode story arcs that build upon a larger, more encompassing arc. Even with small story arcs that move the story forward, Kring said "we have talked about where the show goes up to five seasons".[2]

When the series premiered in the United States, it was the night's most-watched program among adults aged 18-49, attracting 14.3 million viewers overall and receiving the highest rating for any NBC drama premiere in five years.[3]

On October 6, 2006, NBC Entertainment President Kevin Reilly announced Heroes had been picked up for a full season.[4] On January 17, 2007, Reilly announced Heroes had been picked up for a second season.

Ratatouille


Release date:
June 29th, 2007 (wide)

A rat named Remy dreams of becoming a great French chef despite his family's wishes and the obvious problem of being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic profession.

The Reaping - Hillary Swank

Release Date:
April 5th, 2007 (wide)

Katherine Winter, played by Hilary Swank in her dutiful-yuppie- good-listener mode, is a former minister, and now a professor, who travels the world defusing the lustrous credibility of miracles. Swank must know the feeling: She has won two Academy Awards, and she's still doing movies like The Reaping. Katherine is summoned to the sleepy Bible Belt backwater of Haven, La., and the first thing she confronts is a river of blood — a pretty cool image, to be sure, though Katherine is certain there's a rational explanation for it. To her, science can explain everything, and she hews to that belief (which is really a lack of Belief, you see), at one point delineating how the 10 biblical plagues were all natural phenomena. This woman could witness the parting of the Red Sea and think, without hesitation, that it should be reported to the Weather Channel.

In The Reaping, every one of those biblical plagues appears, but they can't be accounted for by science, only by studio executives who theorize that an apocalyptic ''religious'' horror movie is the perfect way to tap into the evangelical market. (It sure beats the PG-rated piffle released by FoxFaith films.) Having seen the error of her ways (science = bad!), our heroine finds the reverence to battle frogs, dead cows, locusts, and — just to hedge the movie's bets — a spooky blond girl who could be Satan's messenger. But no belief on earth can rescue Swank from a film that's a chain of disaster chintz masquerading as a sermon

Disturbia - Shia LaBeouf, Carrie-Anne Moss, David Morse

Release Date:
April 13th, 2007 (wide)

REVIEW SUMMARY
“Disturbia,” a kind of adolescent “Rear Window,” is nowhere near as clumsy or grandiose as its title. The hero, a troubled but basically decent young man named Kale (Shia LaBeouf), does remark once or twice on the dullness and fakery of his suburban milieu, but this is really just antisocial teenage posing. Kale and his mother (Carrie-Anne Moss) live in a lovely Craftsman-style house on a leafy block, and the possibility that a serial killer may live next door just adds character. “Disturbia” will never be accused of undue originality, but its adherence to genre conventions works in its favor. There are no big surprises, but the jumps and jolts are well timed and the overall mood is at once grisly and good-natured — more diverting than disturbing. — A. O. Scott, The New York Times
