Arrow 6x4 : Reversal review


Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it.

 I'm just going to start this review off by saying that this show doesn't feel the same without Oliver as the Green Arrow. Dig is a badass in the suit but nobody will ever replace Ollie as Green Arrow. But that's just my personal preference.

 The episodes starts as we see Laurel now a brunette (wearing a wig) in a bar as she seduces some guy who obviously falls for her charms. They both go outside and she flat out kills him. Afterwards we Oliver and Felicity having dinner in a scene familiar to that of the one in season 3's first episode. There's a lot less action involved this time around though. After some funny lines it ends rather quickly as Felicity is called to the bunker.

 In the bunker the team learns of Laurel after the victim's body is found. There's a hilarious Black Widow namedrop by Curtis that will have you laughing to yourself. As the team focus on Laurel, Felicity heads back to her apartment but is interrupted by Alena the returning member for hacking group Helix. She tells Felicity that Cayden James the supreme hacker from last season that Felicity helped free has a plan to wipe out %4 of the world's population. We're later introduced to him as he is working with Black Siren. He basically wants to wipe out the entire internet (we're not entirely told why) and he almost achieves this before the team come to the rescue. 

 I really liked this episode. It was centered around Felicity but that isn't a bad thing at all. She is a really good character but it's just the writing that affects her sometimes. Her and Oliver are indeed back together as we find out in this episode but again that's not a bad thing as long as they don't focus too heavily on their relationship.

 The episode ends as Oliver gets a call from Slade Wilson who needs his help. So next week's episode will be Deathstroke heavy which is always a good thing as Slade has been a standout character on this show. This episode tops all others this season and is easily the best episode so far. This is Team Arrow at it's finest.

★★★★

Fighting with my Family review

Image
The Knight Family are a unique bunch to say the least. Not only do all the children wrestle but so do the mother and father. And out of that we got Paige. Florence Pugh stars as Saraya Knight a young girl from Norwich England. Her brother Zak Knight played by Jack Lowden has one dream. Of making it to the WWE and he will do anything to make it all possible. At it's core Fighting With My Family is exactly what the title says. A family who fight as we're shown the entire Knight family wrestling in small venues in Norwich. Ricky Knight who is the father wants so much for his kids to succeed and after sending tapes to WWE for them to review and possibly accept both Saraya and Zak for a tryout the family gets it's wish as WWE visits the UK for it's European tour. This is when we meet Vince Vaughn's character who is the guy in charge of recruiting talent and pushing them to see how far they can go and how much they have in them to make it to the top.

Superman & Lois 3x13 : What Kills You Only Makes You Stronger review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. Season 3 of Superman and Lois has come to and end in the most devastatingly epic way. The finale opens up with Sam Lane telling Lois and Clark that Lex Luthor is nowhere to be found. Clark adds more to this by saying he can't hear him either but Lois is not convinced after all Lex did literally threaten her at the end of last weeks episode. A meteor shower is planned for the evening right at the center of Smallville town so you just know something is going to go down then and as expected something major does go down but more on that a bit later. As the boys leave the house Lois tells Clark that she is ready to be intimate again and the two fly off to a private secluded area where they can be together for the first time since Lois had her breasts removed due to her cancer. It's a tender moment and one that does feel very important fo...
