Lost Review: "The Incident" (Episodes 5.16-17)
The faceless Jacob appeared in Lost's season finale, "The Incident," last night. In fact, he appeared again and again; he opened, and nearly closed the episode, and his dark annunciations to all of the Lostites before they returned on the plane wove a tight tapestry throughout the episode. As the various groups of characters scurried around like frenzied mad hatters and white rabbits (Jack to detonate the bomb, Sawyer to stop him, Locke to kill Jacob, the beach dwellers to find the statue), Jacob's presence became as certain and quiet and sure as the future every character was bolting away from.... read more

Found in: Movies, NewsLost Review: "The Variable" (Episode 5.14)
This week's episode of Lost revealed a whole different side of Daniel Faraday. We've oscillated before about the true nature of the physicist to no avail.

In the past, he's just seemed lost and confused, and since he has those big, earnest puppy eyes we decided to forgive him. ... read more

This week's episode of Lost, "Some Like It Hoth," was sharper and more finely tuned than one of Jack's (or now, Juliet's) surgical scalpels. With great detail and precision, it carved out the life and past of Miles, one of the final pieces of Lost's missing story.... read more
