This is Red Cross CPR instructor-When you watch Reid doing his CPR performance on the victim. I am aware of his action doing fake CPR. Actually never bend your elbows doing CPR the reason why its not a way to do the criteria performance. Lock your arms and push down firmly to the chest which it will force the blood from the heart pumps to blood circulation to keep the organs function. If you want to learn CPR then take at the Red Cross CPR class in your community. Please do not do what Reid did. Its liability issue.

TheLittleSongbird3 November 2020The previous six Season 14 episodes were somewhat mixed. While "300" and "The Tall Man" were great and both are season high points, "Starter Home" in particular disappointed. As well as planning to watch the whole season without fail, "Twenty Seven's" story and its structure sounded really interesting and if done well it had real potentil to be a good episode at least. Can understand any run out of ideas complaints for the latter seasons, but there are far worse cases of that than "Twenty Seven".
Personally liked "Twenty Seven" a lot better than the previous reviewers. By all means, it is a long way from 'Criminal Minds' at its best (also miles away from being a low-point). To me though, it was one of the better and more interesting Season 14 episodes and had more tension than most of the season. Is it perfect? Nope. Does it have a lot of good things? Oh yes from personal view. If people were mixed or indifferent to "Twenty Seven" that is fine with me.
Am going to begin with the imperfections. Much has been said about Reid's distractingly unrealistic CPR, that will distract even those with not much medical experience.
Did feel that "Twenty Seven" ran out of steam at the end. The climax just felt too pat and too neatly wrapped up and the coda somehow didn't fit within the rest of the episode tonally after so much tension beforehand.
Conversely, "Twenty Seven" does so much very well indeed. It is slickly and atmospherically shot, with the camera angles helping heightening the tension. The music adds to the atmosphere too, not overbearing it in tone or placement. It is both tautly and sympathetically directed, the earlier scenes have a real urgency and the latter scenes bring a lump to the throat. The dialogue is thought-provoking and taut, especially when the team get closer to the truth and when things are revealed.
On top of that, the story is very compelling in my view and the real time structure stops things from being predictable. Really loved the increasing tension and urgency that the case had. The identity of the responsible wasn't the biggest of shocks but even that wasn't obvious too early, and when it comes to unsubs from this season "Twenty Seven" has among the most interesting where one feels their pain and loss, with one of the season's most plausible and resonant motives, while in no way condoning their actions. The social/morality issue is a very relevant and resonant one today and important to address, something that "Twenty Seven" does very well and hard-hittingly indeed.
Loved the team, all of them serve a point and all play an active role in solving the case (even Tara) with plenty to contribute. The character interaction is on point, Prentiss and Mendoza are adorable together. All the regulars are great, as are intense yet moving Joshua Elijah Reese and Tre Hall.
Summing up, one of the best of the season if not a 'Criminal Minds' high point. 7/10 -
AlmaSoulAmor26 January 2021This exchange (below) is genius! To watch a single, powerful woman, my age, be a public hero, receive sincere admiration and recognition by the man she worked with for that one day, and then brilliantly get him to ask her out on an official date (no less,) and closes with, "I'll think about it," to-boot. Go Prentis!
Hot hero Prentiss: (visits hospital room) "Hey. I know it's late, I just wanted to see how you were doing. You look well."
Hot hero Cop: "Thanks. It's . . pain meds are spectacular."
Prentiss: "When you getting out of here?
Cop: "Soon. My vital organs are in place, so there's that."
Prentiss: "Good." (inhales) "Because, well, I did save your life. Least you could do is buy me a beer or something."
Cop: (raises eyebrows) "Yeah. Yeah, I could do that. I might even be able to take you to dinner. I mean, since we're gonna be out. Maybe a ball game. I could get you one of those little hats with ice cream in it. You know, if you're into that kind of thing."
Prentiss: "Well, it sounds like a date . . ."
Cop: "Yeah. It'd be a date."
Prentiss: "I'll think about it." (She walks off and secretly flashes a big, beautiful smile.)
Fantastic episode. I enjoyed the above exchange so much, that I didn't even notice his scandalously open robe until the multipleth viewing. I hope something, at least, very fun comes of this pairing. -
phuketboy25 December 2018Writer may be Arsenal fan? Park Ji sung, fomer Manchester Untied football star, was Arsenal killer. He is a pride of Asian. Even Daniel Henney is half Korean. He didn't know Park Ji Sung?
So writers used a hate joke for racism basically.
Very unpleasant. -
bobcobb3014 January 2019We have seen these countdown clock and mysterious omnipotent voice over episodes on all CBS procedurals, and they are usually good fluff entertainment, but this got boring fast.
It went from a story about stopping murders to a lame question on morality. That's where they lost me. -

zachariestp7 July 2023The message of the killers, about the inequality baked into the systems of government and of police/first responder priorities is a very real and pertinent message. But to have that message delivered by a pair of brothers driven to murder by the death of their brothers is a terrible way to convey this message. Viewing this episode through different lenses, different perspectives, give different subcontexts to the episode. I am sure, that through the eyes of the certains people who have a bias to discriminate or dismiss the black experience this is just more fuel in the fire of prejudice. This show, on its best days I'd thinly veiled, pro-cip propaganda, don't let it become white supremacist propaganda as well.

vaerix15 February 2022This was a pretty decent episode overall, but the ending was stupid. First of all why didn't Mendoza even try to fight the dude with the machete during the swap of him and the girl? I understand it might be difficult, might've even been hurt, but Mendoza is trained (as he is an FBI agent), so he probably could've got the upper hand or at least disarmed him. At least I think he could've. Secondly you're telling me that as soon as the dude cut Mendoza, Emily didn't shoot him? There was plenty of space to hit him, she was close and the target was big enough. It's not like she would've hit Mendoza, and surely she was allowed to right? Like I know you have to wait for the offender to attack before shooting, and cutting and agent with a machete constitutes as an attack right?

TwistedCyberChik10 October 2021I am fully aware that in the real world, it is extremely important to talk first, shoot later. My question is, how many murders does someone have to commit before their actions do the talking for them and other than declaring you are the police you skip straight to the shoot bit, especially when said murderer has a hostage? The "always talk them down" trope can be very unrealistic, yall.
