Prison Break season 2
I've always thought that thriller stories are only available in novels. In that case, I could only think of Robert Ludlum. But I was wrong. Definitely wrong.
The second season of Prison Break was all about chasing and being chased. My heart was also racing I could hardly catch up. I have to admit, I got carried away by poignant scenes whenever death, or better say murder, was anticipated. More than the obvious anxieties the characters went through, there were also deeper sense to them. Every scenario reminded me of the gravity of life. And I'd say I thank God for giving me a strong heart so I could handle such veracity.
The hunt may have driven me crazy, but it was fun.
There were also scenes that touched me deeply. Seriously, this season is very poignant. I feel sorry for what happened to John Abruzzi. A reaction I also have in The Godfather. I pity Tweener and Haywire. I hate T-bag, but I wanted him to stay alive. He's like a habanero. You'd love to hate the guy. As for C-Note, I'm relieved for him. I wish Sucre buenaswerte.
Of course, there were scenes that I love. I think I want to call them sweet moments. And yes, it isn't hard to guess that they're about Michael and Sara. I like, better say love, the conversation between the two of them in episode 10: Rendezvous. So touching, whatever meaning you give to the word. I like what Sara said. "I don't wanna be alone." It was her response to Michael's, "I don't want you to be alone in this."
The strongest people in the world are not immune to loneliness. Everyone needs someone.
There was also this episode where Sara had to make a sacrifice. It reminded me of what Svetlana Baranova did. The Tristan Betrayal. Bon Jovi was right, words can't tell what love can do.
Of course, who would forget Alexander Mahone, the new guy in the season. I only have one word for him- nemesis. I like his character. Except for the fact that he's such an analyst, he also got issues in his past. If Scofield thinks about the future, Mahone worries about the past. As a result, they have a pretty twisted present.
And there's Paul Kellerman. I'm glad that his magazine got jammed. Am also curious about what happened to him in the last episode.
Watching the third season is just a matter of time. I can't wait for that. Too bad I've got some things to attend to. I also need to give the TV and DVD player a rest. I've been up till three or four this morning.
I choose to have faith. Because without that, I have nothing.
It's all that I need to keep me going.
