Stargirl 3x8 : Frenemies - Chapter eight : Infinity Inc Part two review

 


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

The review of this episode of Stargirl is extremely late and will be pretty brief as a new episode airs tonight and I'll have that review up on Friday but with that being said let's get into it. The episode picks up right where the previous ended as we catch up Pat and The Shade who were thrust into the Shadowlands when they collided with the powers of Todd Rice who also has a similar set of powers like The Shade but his are not at all under control, at least not for the time being. It is here in these Shadowlands where Shade mentions how he will not be fully healed of his lack of power until Jennie is cleared of corruption through her Lantern ring. Pat and Shade run into all manner of constructs and figments of imagination as they meet The Gambler, Pats dad and more. It's a fascinating time and one that ends in a bittersweet moment. 

Back in the land of the living and it is here where we finally get to see Mr Bones meet Courtney face to face. He tells her about his curse and how he was born with a poison touch one that killed his mother at birth. He also talks about Helix and how it has been used to house and protect people with extraordinary abilities for years upon years. It is why Todd is here and Jennie too. They're being kept from the outside world which Courtney isn't too pleased with at all. Both brother and sister do end up reuniting and it's a great moment much like the entire back half of the episode which is just really solid character work as usual from this show. 


The episode draws to a close as everyone is reunited, the corruption on Jennie's ring is no more and most surprisingly we're still in the dark about who has been monitoring Blue Valley. Just who could it be?? we're not really closer to finding out as the episode ends with the person putting their fist through one of their monitors. Mr Bones is not really an option anymore as it'd be too obvious other than him I'm genuinely fascinated by it all. This review has been short like I said and in the next review I will fix that I promise. As for this episode I liked it a lot. It was a really good follow up to the previous part and ended the arc in a satisfying way indeed. 

★★★★

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.

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.

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...
