D.C.Reviews

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. This week's episode of The Flash begins with Nora in the time vault. She is taking to Gideon and as she is talking to her her words are being documented as she is attempting to send a letter to Eobard Thawne explaining her frustrations with lying to her parents and the toll it's taken on not only herself but them. It's killing her to lie to them as she gets closer and closer with Barry and Iris. As we saw at the end of last week's episode Barry told Iris that he intends to wake up Grace (Cicada's niece) from her coma and thus in turn help Cicada stop his crusade against meta humans. Sherloque Wells comes up with a way to do this and introduces a device used by various people including Jervis Tetch aka The Mad Hatter which was a nice little not to that character. To use the device one must plug into Grace's brain waves and enter her mind. Wells says the be

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. Kicking off from where it ended last week as we saw Oliver say hello to Emiko this week's episode begins with a TV interview where Oliver discusses his family, his father and various other things. All of this is intertwined with Emiko and Oliver's meeting which is very brief. Emiko basically says she doesn't want anything to do with him and leaves it at that. At ARGUS the Ghost project continues with the inclusion of Cupid, China White and Deathstroke's son. Curtis makes me laugh by saying how the Ghost project is just another name for the Suicide Squad. Speaking of Curtis he is tasked with making sure the bombs implanted into all member's heads are suitable. He is against this of course but does end up doing his job after him and Diggle argue a bit. This is all done in a rather clever way however as while pumping in sedatives to all those in custody Diaz see

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. Beginning pretty similar to last week's episode this week opens with the 2nd Supergirl who continues to train. She smashes drones and various other things before landing on the ground. Within seconds of landing she appears to get a nose bleed and is taken into a room where she lays motionless on a bed. The men around her try to bring her back with electrical shocks but it's no use. One of these shocks does cause problems however as rays of energy come off of this 2nd Supergirl and travel around the world. These rays of energy just so happen to make their way to a van and blasts in with energy. But inside is a 2 guys and a girl and plenty of drugs. These drugs get infected with the energy and turn a purple color. On the outside 2 more guys show up and take the drugs which turns one of them into a freakish monster who rage problems. Racking up views on social media the two

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it This week's episode of Gotham is almost the definition itself of a mixed bag. It features some really cool, hilarious and just epic stuff but on the other hand it features more silly and just stuff that I didn't think was interesting helped move things along. Picking up right away from the ending of last week's episode we see the building of GCPD's safe haven engulfed by flames. Penguin and Barbara are still on the outside but Barbara seemingly disappears during all the chaos. Gordon tries his best round up cops that are outside and along with Harvey agree to use the drinking water in reserve to out the fire around the building. Back at the main GCPD building Gordon is communicating once again with those outside of Gotham and says the death toll stands at 311 with more injured and even more missing amidst all the rubble and destruction. Sick of hearing the gover

Mary Queen of Scotland. Elizabeth Queen of England, Ireland and Wales. Two cousins at war. It's a set-up that's been done before especially the cousins at war scenario but Mary Queen of Scots somehow manages to differ from movies in the same vein before it. Starring Saoirse Ronan as Mary and Margot Robbie as Elizabeth this movie offers a unique and interesting delve into the lives of these characters. And what lives they did live indeed as not only were they closely watched at every step and constantly monitored it was Mary who took the majority of the blow and this movie doesn't shy away from that fact. Saoirse Ronan is easily the standout here and plays her role almost perfectly. Her accent drifts from time to time but for the most part it's really consistent and believable. Margot Robbie is good here also but looks a bit lost and bored in some scenes I don't know what it was about her performance but it wasn't up to par. Especially when you factor in the

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it After not featuring in last week's mid season premiere the focus of this episode is heavy on Cicada and for that fact alone it is a really enjoyable episode. It begins at Cicada's home where the doctor who has been treating his daughter and helping him shows up with various stuff. But nothing more important than a list of meta humans that have all been released from prison recently. With a clear focus in mind now Cicada goes on a full blown murder spree and kills names from the list given to him. He doesn't hold back either as he almost butchers some of the meta's. At one of the murder crime scenes Barry and Nora investigate and find little evidence. Back at Star Labs they along with Cecil learn of the list that is in Cicada's possession. But before they can go to see Captain Singh and warn him about the ongoing situation Team Flash learns of Cicada's cu

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it Arrow returns from it's mid season break with one hell of an episode. Starting off and continuing with the reveal during the mid season finale that Oliver has a half sister named Emiko Queen. The first thing we see during this episode is of Emiko hunting down and crossing off various criminals names off of a notebook. It's all incredibly fast paced, almost to the point of where I couldn't even keep up with my notes on it all. Emiko narrates all of this and we learn of her goal. To find the man who murdered her mother. Oliver arrives at his first crime scene while working for the SCPD and is right away made to know that he isn't all that liked by members of the force. Dinah finds a blood sample on the floor as at the beginning of the episode Emiko had jumped out of the window to avoid serious injury given that she got shot in the shoulder and ended up going to se

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it Supergirl returns from it's mid season break and what a strong episode to return with. It begins with the second Kara / Supergirl that's been show various times throughout the season so far. She is shown training as she blows up drones attacks tanks and various other stuff. The guy in charge of training her forces his workers to train her even harder as it won't be just tanks she will be going up against. Skip to the Supergirl we know and love and while working out with Lena Kara using her super hearing hears people in danger far away. She chalks up her leaving to muscle cramp and tells Lena that she is going to ice her aches and pains. Supergirl eventually ends up on a ship with everyone on board slaughtered. She hears a bomb and just as she picks it up one of the soldiers gets dragged overboard by what Supergirl says is a shimmer. Colonel Hayley, Alex and Brainiac

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it Gotham is back for it's third week running and this episode is easily the best thus far. Featuring plenty of amazing Penguin moments, the slow and subtle turn of Selina Kyle into Catwoman and Echo's slow decent into madness. It begins with Penguin who walks out of his bedroom only to be greeted by a choir who are singing Penguin, Our hero. The ego on Oswald is really enormous but it's why he's such a great character. As he arrives downstairs he is greeted to some bad news by Mr Penn who tells him that workers have been falling ill as they've been working throughout the night. Penguin seems barely bothered by this and moments later members of the Street Demonz bust in through the City Halls doors claiming that Penguin took out all their guys at their stronghold. After what we saw in last week's episode with ''Penguin Was Here'' sprayed on a

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it The Flash finally returns for a round of new episodes after what seemed like an age away. Especially given how the mid season finale ended with the reveal that Nora is working with the Reverse Flash himself Eobard Thawne in 2049. And that is where the episode begins as Nora questions Eobard about his obsession with The Flash and just why he killed Nora's grandmother in front of Barry as a child. Thawne for the first time in this show that I can remember shows his true obsession with The Flash coming to the point of actually wanting to be him. Nora says that she will never be him and says that he can't be trusted. I really enjoyed Nora's story arc throughout this episode as she struggles with the idea of if a villain can actually turn good or at least show good like qualities. Barry mentions Leonard Snart who was one of the biggest villains in Central City who turned o

Growing up I was never a fan of Laurel & Hardy and even to this day I haven't gone back to watch any of their work. But now after seeing this wonderful movie I have a feeling that's all going to change. John C Reily and Steve Coogan are on top form as the iconic comedy double act Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy. Taking place during the latter years of their careers as the duo have conquered Hollywood and are being hailed as the greatest comedy act ever things slow down for the pair as the years go on and they get older. They get a chance to go on tour many years after their original stay atop Hollywood and both decide to give it a go. Both men as I said are on top form here with John C Reily at times eclipsing Steve Coogan's performance as both men really look feel and sound like the comedy icons. The pacing throughout is fantastic as not a moment feels wasted with enough material punched in that you honestly won't get bored for a second. The jokes and humor are

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it Gotham's second episode in it's fifth and final season isn't all that interesting sadly as it doesn't really delve into much of the craziness that was expected. It isn't a bad episode by any means but compared to last week's thrilling premiere it feels somewhat lackluster. Let's get into it and it begins pretty much where last week's did end as a young boy named Will Thomas tells Jim that he escaped from a warehouse or sorts where young children were being held captive so they can build and excavate a tunnel for the people running the entire operation. He also tells Jim how there are many more kids back there and that he escaped during the night to go look for help. He says he walked over 9 miles in the dark zone to reach the GCPD as he promised his friends that he'd help them all. Jim ever the hero is reluctant at first given how lowly stocked

Have you ever thought what it would be like to have not only 1 but multiple Spidermen and women on screen at once?? well Into The Spider-Verse has got all that and more. Not only does it feature Peter Parker but it introduces Miles Morales a young kid from Brooklyn who after being forced almost by his parents to go to a school from Monday-Friday his entire life is thrown into turmoil after being bitten by a radioactive spider while out with his uncle. This leads to new friendships, bitter enemies and everything else a Spider can. Being animated I honestly didn't expect much from this movie overall but man did it surprise me. It is fresh, funky, exciting and absolutely hilarious. Miles is a fantastic lead and the various other spider men and women are a joy to watch also as they all team up to try and thwart The Kingpin's latest plan which literally rips entire holes in dimensions. It is beautifully animated throughout and Miles is a great character to help move the plot al

Be warned there will be *SPOILERS* involved in this review. With that being said let's get into it Gotham finally returns for it's fifth and sadly last season and with a run of only 12 episodes there is a lot to get through and eventually wrap up. It begins on Day 391 of No Man's Land as the final battle for Gotham comes to a head as Captain Gordon, Harvey Bullock, Riddler and even Penguin all suit up and get loaded for combat as all men led by many more GCPD officers open fire from a top a massive wall as Jim Gordon says ''For Gotham'' this of course is going to be the end of the season but let's go all the way back to day 87 of No Man's Land where we see Gordon talking to someone on a radio. He explains the situation currently going on in Gotham. He says various villains have taken over their own terrirtorys for example The Penguin has taken over Gotham City Hall, Scarecrow has his own little area, Mr Freeze and Firefly are at war with one ano
