User Reviews

In one word - Brilliant.

Greetings from Lithuania.

This was definitely the best season ending in many moons. And i mean i like watching TV shows, saw a lot of them, and "Person of Interest" is one of my favorites, actually, my favorite for now.

And when it came to the last episode of the season, it was soooo intense and breathtaking that i couldn't take my eyes of screen. What an episode! I won't going to spoil anything, just going to say, that if you enjoyed this show so far, you will be in nirvana watching "Firewall".

This is how to end the season! Two big thumbs up! A must see to everyone, and "Firewall" should be used as an example on other networks as a perfection of writing, acting, editing and directing of an episode.
