Yea, it was a bit disappointing. Things I liked, things I didn't like... It was a good episode, but they really didn't answer any questions....
The thing that attacked Locke was cool, and it was the first thing that's happened that's been overtly supernatural, or whatever you want to call it. Up till now, all the weird stuff on the island has been ambiguous enough where they could explain it away, if they really wanted to. But here they grew some balls with that invisible thing that got Locke... I don't think there's any way to explain that away.
The "others" coming to get Walt... Maybe I'm stupid, but I didn't see it coming. I bought the idea that the French woman was just crazy, and then I forgot about the whole idea of a boy being taken away. I'll give the show credit there.
The dynamite storyline was wayyy too drawn out. And then to not really have a payoff, and instead just show us a ladder leading downwards... definitely left me wanting more there.
And the random flashbacks just don't work for the show... those are definitely just filler, and as pointless as Manx says they are. I guess it doesn't really work for the season finale to be focused on one character, so they instead do these random flashbacks, but they didn't make up for it by what was happening on the island.
So yea, I enjoyed it overall, but for an episode/finale that's focused on what's happening on the island, they didn't provide enough answers... and I guess no one's surprised by that.
