Kaniel Outis (2017) User Reviews (7)

Planning more... (Minor Spoilers!)

[Shmaden · 9/10 · 12 April 2017]

After the great pilot episode last week, this episode begins to reveal a lot more of the mysteries set in the first episode. For example we learn what Michael did and we get a glance on the history of Kaniel in the prison of Ogygia.

This episode isn't as good as the first but still good in the overall picture of the season. This revival seems to feel more like the original seasons, more like a combination between the first and third season. The story is good and well thought linking parts from all over the places into one big scheme, which leaves the audiences wanting to know more about who is behind all in this revival series. Above everything else we see the old school Michael and his genius at planning his escape and planning everything that happens to everyone around or close to him.

If there was any doubt for me in the first episode, then this got me hooked for rest of the season and hopefully for another one beside this one, because honestly I can't see the whole story and mysteries being resolved in only one season with 9 episodes.

The shows good start continues

This episode continued the great start that this show got off to last week. While I'm sure it dropped in viewership, it doesn't change the fact that this episode might have been better put together than the premiere. Michaels motives still remain quite a mystery, and his involvement with isis is very intriguing. We get some cool action scenes with Lincoln and C- note, but T-bags and Sucres absences bring the episode down a little. However, the return of fan favorite Paul Kellerman easily makes up for it. I am interested to see how the final 7 episodes play out considering that every other season had at least 13 episodes to tell its story. This episode won't get anyone else hooked on the show, but it certainly won't drive viewers away either.

Nice

While first episode was all about nostalgia and bringing characters together; this episode really kicks off the things and everything is starting to turn into something huge and fascinating.

You have to admire that the story is both different and fascinating. We are starting to know more about the mystery of Kaniel Outis. How he got in to that prison and his relationship with ISIL.

The only thing missing from the episode was T-bags & Sucre but there is more development of other characters especially Scofield & overall this episode gives you a pretty good idea of the things going to come in the next few episodes and I have never felt so excited.

On the right track

The second episode is tense, adrenaline-filled. While the previous episode is about Linc, Sarah, T-bag etc,, here it's more about Michael himself and the current situation he's in. We find out more about Michael's backstory after the events of the last season. The Michael here is somewhat different from the one we know, he's more cold and mischievous than ever. And the way the plot unfolds in the sense that, we didn't follow Michael to prison but rather he's already an established inmate and even planning to escape, which kinda make the audience feel left out. The sense of unfamiliarity we get from Michael is great, it's like audience doesn't know him anymore. The prison environment is somewhat similar to Sona but the atmosphere is much more dreadful. The vast majority of the episode features Linc and C-note trying to track one of Michael's associate with the help Sheba. In this part, there are some intense action sequences that were very enjoyable as a lot is at stake. Overall, I like the Yemeni wars and political unrest in the backdrop of the story. In a more calming aspect of the episode, we see Sarah perplexed with Michael's news as she tries to make meaning of Michael's actions. There is also the return of Kellerman which was surprising but I like it. Overall, I'm hooked up with what I'm watching so far and I like direction the show is taking.

So much coincidences.

I really like this show a lot and basically keep watching because the drama and suspense builds really well. The acting by Lincoln is the worst followed closely by Michael( especially when he's supposedly angry). So now is is on prison in a whole nother country? And he is gonna break out of that prison too? I guess it's a good thing he was never put in any super max penitentiary. Still haven't found put why Sara isn't hiding in Cosra Rica. For Arabic speaking people, they sure do keep pronouncing the word Sheikh wrong. It's like saying "shake". AmericanSavings might get a pass, but Yemeni people? I doubt it.

Bites off more than it can chew

Heyo! It's Osama bin Laden. Only now he's called Abdul Ramal and he's locked up with Michael Scofield.

Maybe Prison Break is taking it a step too far. I don't want to take this new season in the Prison Break series too seriously because then I might actually enjoy it more. But the thing is that beheadings and religious intolerance are not issues to be taken lightly. The second episode takes itself very serious with the introduction of these story lines. I'm curious to see where they take this series, but so far I'm not the least bit impressed.

Show more Scofield and his Prison Break plan and show less of the dumber brother in the middle of simplified middle eastern conflicts.
