5.0 out of 5 stars Blu Ray AMAZING!, August 27, 2008

By	Damon "DaRay Studio" (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews

This is a review of the Blu Ray picture and sound. The picture is crystal clear, it looks amazing. I am so glad I paid the extra $15 and got BluRay. The sound is just as amazing. Definitely better then Standard DVD. Which I think looks amazing, I own S1 on SD DVD and was impressed with the image and sound quality, BluRay blows it away.

This season was a little slow going, I wasn;t happy with some of the new stories started, but over all I think if your a fan of Heroes, you'll love season 2.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best way to enjoy Season 2., September 21, 2008

By	M J Heilbron Jr. "Dr. Mo" (Long Beach, CA United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I think this is the best way to see Season 2 of "Heroes." Low expectations, given the weak word-of-mouth, and the pristine AV quality of Blu-ray. And you don't have to wait a week to get your next fix.

I loved every minute of this season. Especially when you peruse the extras, and see how this may have all played out if not for the writer's strike. Every episode has a cliff-hanger, and each subsequent one delivers several pay-offs and knockout moments that will keep you up at night.

Seriously, I found myself completely engaged with the whole cast. The numerous complaints that they "spent too much time" with our heroes' individual stories is unfounded, as you can clearly see they would have been all heading to Odessa, Texas had it been a full season.

The actors do some of their best work to date. Soecifically, Hayden Panettiere and Masi Oka are flat-out amazing. The range they show across these eleven episodes is astonishing. Every one else, for the most part, excels as well. Except maybe the whole Mexican-immigration-black-eyeball storyline, which is only really highlighted by the impossibly creepy Sylar performance of Zachary Quinto.

The plots have great twists, great action sequences...the visuals are terrific, as you'd expect. It's all delivered flawlessly on these four BD discs. Again, check out the extras, which fill out the story nicely.

And I finished it JUST in time for the new season, for which now I simply cannot wait!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as Great as Season 1, but a decent DVD none the less, August 27, 2008

By	Justin Bright - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Like most Heroes fans I absolutely loved Season 1 and wasn't to crazy about Season 2. When I bought this DVD and started watching the special features I watched the commentary from Tim Kring and watched where Season 2 was supposed to go if the Writers Strike never would've occured.

The Season 2 episodes definately aren't as great as most of the Season 1 episodes were, but after the story line gets moving again it picks up, but by then the seasons over. But the special features are worth it too because along with the Tim Kring commentary you get to see the Heroes Untold Stories which is where they were meaning for Heroes to go later on in the season, which was really cool.

If your a Heroes fan you need to add this to your collection anyway because something tells me after this Season the show is just going to get better.
