CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (TV Series) Grissom Versus the Volcano (2003) User Reviews

Don't Make a Fool of Me

[Hitchcoc · 9/10 · 23 January 2021]

There are two crimes that need investigating. The first begins when a car bomb goes off on a busy Las Vegas street. Three people die. The problem is a motive and a logical suspect. What transpires is one man's secret life and what it leads to. The second concerns the death of a beautiful young woman, dead in a Jacuzzi. She is the wife of one of the most popular entertainers on the Strip. Only a couple of suspects are reasonable ones. The first of these shows what happens when a woman is scorned. The second when a woman becomes jealous and bored. Two well constructed cases.

Don't fiddle with your class work

I must confess, that i am a real fan of CSI, since it aired in Germany and even bought the original DVDs to watch with captions for the hearing impaired to see all the wonderful terms like the blunt forced trauma and more. This episode again has special implications, what looks like a terror attack on an Air Marshal ends up as a .... Gil Grissom as dominating as he was in the early seasons unties the story in his regular manner. And everything works out with the inherent logic, that CSI has made a favorite for me, my all time favorite being "Fur and Loathing in Las Vegas". But that is another story.

Have fun.

The Bomb and the Show Must Go On

[claudio_carvalho · 8/10 · 31 December 2022]

The Bomb and the Show Must Go On Sheriff Rory Atwater is leaving the Orpheus hotel and witness a car bombing, where the driver, the valet and the bellhop die. Grissom and Catherine arrive to investigate the crime scene and gunshots start. Grissom finds that the bullets are in the trunk in bag. Nick and Capt. Brass help the investigation. Soon they learn that the driver is Air Marshall Adam Watson, and the car was rented in an agency. Nick puts together the pieces of the bomb, which was a pipe bomb connected to the car clock. Soon they conclude that the victim might have been the previous user of the rented car since the timer was not accurate. Meanwhile, Sara, Warrick and Det. Louis Vartann investigate the death of Amelia Reuben, who is the wife of the successful singer Myles Reuben. They conclude that Myles, his manager Sam Hopkins and a hotel waiter were the last persons to see Amelia alive, and the autopsy and Greg's investigation concluded that she was poisoned.

"Grissom Versus the Volcano" is a great episode of "CSI", with two nice stories. Both mislead the CSI investigators and the viewers, but are well resolved. The conclusions are unexpected, when they find the responsible for the murders. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): "Grissom Contra o Vulcão" ("Grissom Versus the Volcano")
