Critic Reviews

Verne Gay

This is good bunk, fun bunk, energetic bunk. Much better bunk than the last volume. Read full review

Misha Davenport

Based on the first action-packed and fun episode, it looks like Kring and crew have succeeded in pulling out of their sophomore slump. Read full review

Alessandra Stanley

Mr. Kring has assured interviewers and fans that the third season will correct those mistakes and recover the fast-paced suspense and tension of the first season. The premiere episode lives up to that pledge, with lots of violence, special effects and laser-fast editing. The plot and ever-escalating conspiracies are hard to follow, but even first-time viewers can easily get the gist. Read full review

Rob Owen

The first hour of Heroes answers enough questions and moves the story forward in such a way that a few "Huh?" moments won't matter as long as they're answered in short order and don't linger for too long. Read full review

Mary McNamara

Even just a half hour in, it's difficult not to wish everyone would just lighten the heck up. The graphic novel noir feel is becoming increasingly oppressive, and everyone is just so grim. Read full review

Joanna Weiss

NBC sent the first hour of tonight's two-hour season premiere to critics, and it's sprinkled with some of the original fun: inventive special effects, a twist or two, some nifty gore. That doesn't stop it from being the same, familiar mess. Read full review

Adam Buckman

This show, which was once so thrilling and fun, has become full of itself, its characters spouting crazy nonsense. Read full review
