The Arrow Season Four: Green Arrow

New season, new threads

Oliver and Felicity have been living a quiet life after leaving Starling City however Laurel and Thea arrive to ask for Oliver's help when a former League member Damien Darhk (Neal Mcdonough) shows up with his own HIVE forces.

 

I said that in my Flash review that while it's first episode of the new season was great it didn't have much of an impact however Arrow.......just WOW, it nailed it completely! I wondered how Oliver and Felicity where going to go back to the vigilante lifestyle after we spend the first five minutes with them in suburban paradise and I was surprised that it was mainly due to Felicity who has been secretly helping Team Arrow because she was bored. I liked that they didn't waste too much time bringing them back it was just like; "The city is worse than we thought and we miss the thrill, so lets get back into it.". It was enjoyable to see them come back where we see more of Felicity back to her old positive self and Oliver himself seems a lot more open and light - hearted which is a great change from the depressive tone of Season Three so good job to Amell. As for the rest of Team Arrow Diggle was a definite standout because after three seasons of being Oliver right hand man he is the most reluctant to accept him back because of how Oliver betrayed him; the bromance isn't completely back yet but we still see them working together (plus I like his costume and I don't care what anyone else says). The weak point with Team Arrow however was with Laurel and Thea and while I do really love seeing Laurel as Black Canary and Thea impressed me with her kicking ass during the truck chase they didn't leave much of an impression and felt like they where just there. We get only a one minute snippet of Thea losing control because of the Lazarus Pit but honestly I would have preferred for them to save it until it is the focus of a whole episode and not have been shoved into this one. I'm sure these two will be better when they both get an episode dedicated more to them but there just wasn't much for them in this premiere.

 



The Force is strong with this one

As for everything else the biggest standout was the introduction of Damien Darhk who was just perfectly, and I mean perfectly, cast. He had such a creepy and intimidating presence when he was on screen like his first scene where he comes out and says he is the bad guy and he wants Star City to die. Quickly want to mention Star City and they did an awesome job of making it seem worse than ever like the abandoned buildings, empty streets, the murders of leaders and the fact people just want to leave. This is of course helped by Damien and his HIVE forces who seem unstoppable and even the grunts put up a hell of a fight; they are like a high tech version of the League. Back to Damien his fight scene on the train was so damn cool and when he used his powers to catch arrows and kill with a touch it was just WTF! This is kind of explained with Damien performing a ritual near the end and I really don't know what it means yet but this is what I wanted in Arrow; more powers either through Meta Humans or the supernatural and I can't wait for more. Finally I will talk about the two biggest twists of the episode with the first one being Quentin working with Damien which is something I did not see coming. I liked Quentin in this even before that reveal because while he still doesn't support vigilantes he doesn't go overboard, its like he's "I'll do my thing, you'll do yours" but I think I am going to really like him working for Damien because this will give his character something completely new to work with than just being the cop (though I don't think he is evil or anything). Then there is the reveal that someone will die in six months which is more than a compelling reason to keep on watching. As for who it could be Felicity might seem too obvious and since Thea already died I think it could either be Quentin, Diggle or maybe even Felicity's mom? I know I haven't mentioned the Flashbacks yet but they didn't seem worth mentioning; His back on the island but we get no information as to why, I still don't like Waller and I hated she had to come back so soon and I would have preferred seeing a few episodes where the Flashbacks focus on Oliver being a rookie vigilante chasing criminals in Coast City like we saw for a bit.

 

"It's Team Diggle now, anyone have a problem with that?"

Overall Arrow was a far more impressive first episode than Flash for the new season by delivering lots of action, character development, introducing it's impressive new villain already and giving us two big twists that just hooks us into this new season straight away.            

 

 

SCORE: 9/10

Arrow Season Three: Uprising

It would have been interesting if Malcolm took over Team Arrow

With Brick becoming more powerful than ever Malcolm offers his services to Team Arrow and while Diggle, Arsenal and Black Canary consider the proposal Felicity is strongly against it. It is revealed Malcolm has more of a personal vendetta with Brick than anyone thought as Flashbacks reveal how he became the person he is today.

What an end to an awesome three part mini arc in the Arrow TV show; I have said it before and I will say it again I have immensely enjoyed these three episodes and if I did a top moments in Arrow this will be in it. This is probably my favourite of the three episodes because finally my favourite character in the show has the spotlight; Malcolm Merlyn who I have been complaining about lately is too much on the side lines. Finally he got an episode focused on him and I have to say that the writers seem to be trying to redeem his character a bit (such as sparing Brick), I don't think he will ever be a good guy but he is has never been entirely evil in my opinion. It is just as Roy and Thea said, in his own twisted way he protects people and just wants to save the city. Plus we got to see him again as the Dark Archer which is also awesome because his costume is the best and he is the best archer in the show in my opinion. What was also a nice addition was that the Flashbacks where about his past and we definitely needed this and it was good seeing his transformation from a good man to The Magician. I only wish there was more than what we got like him training more with the League because the scene with young Nyssa was just cool but I wanted to know more!

"I'm back!!!"

As for everything else it is good that Oliver is back now and though I think is entrance could have been more grand his speech to the citizens of the Glades was epic. Speaking of the Glades the showdown with Brick at the end was done really well and I enjoyed the massive brawl in the streets, also we got to see two characters again we haven't seen in a while; Sin and Ted Grant. Firstly I have always liked Sin's character and I'm glad to see her again I just wish that she didn't just pop up out of no where and they gave more explanation to where she has been. As for Ted I wanted him to be Wildcat again and he did not disappoint and it was awesome when he fought Brick; he really kicked his ass more than anyone else and I don't even mind he lost because I'm just going to chalk that up to the fact he has been retired for ages and Brick has almost superhuman strength anyway. Another character that was great this episode was Quentin, it was just so funny that he knew Roy straight away as Arsenal and how his joke about how Team Arrow choses names. Seems like he is going to realize Sara isn't the Black Canary soon because of Sin and since next episode is titled Canaries I'm guessing it's in that episode.

WILDCAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for Team Arrow they have been great during these three episodes; Roy has really matured in the absence of Oliver, I think Laurel becoming the Black Canary has been handled really well and Diggle is always just great. However the real let down has been Felicity because I think she just become a weak and whiny character lately. She completely ruined Oliver's homecoming and I don't get why, Oliver is basically using Malcolm to train him it is not like he is making him a member of the team. I just really miss the light hearted Felicity before who is super smart but can also cheer up the team and raise their confidence in any situation with her wit and one liners. I just hope they change her back to how she was before because right now I don't look forward to the scenes she is in since she is just a downer. Before I finish I know this episode was similar to the Dark Knight Rises but that doesn't bother me since the people behind the show have said before that Christopher Nolan's Batman has been inspiration for them and it isn't like their completely copying them.

Magic tricks work on everyone; kids or even assassins

Overall great finale to the three part episodes and I am glad that Brick is still alive to appear in future episodes. We got some great action and I actually liked the Flashbacks we got this time and I am looking forward to Oliver being in Star City once again.

SCORE: 9/10

Highlights: Epic three part arc
                   Wildcat and Sin
                   A Malcolm focused episode and Flashbacks
                   Great showdown with Brick at the end

Let - Downs: Felicity has been a constant negative in these last three episodes
                      Wanted to see Malcolm's training in the League

Arrow Season Three: Guilty

"I am Wildcat"

The episode begins with Arrow and Red Arrow going to stop a drug deal however they find the dealers dead and hanged with the word GUILTY written in blood, Roy then secretly asks Felicity to check for any Mirakuru still in his system. In a Flashback Oliver and Maseo tail a guy but when they lose track of him they find out the package they where supposed to get was not on him, in the present Arrow tracks down another hanged man which is in the Wildcat Gym and runs into Ted and Laurel. At the Arrowcave Felicity tells Roy there is no Mirakuru in his system so Roy tells her of his nightmares meanwhile Ted is questioned but Laurel vouches for him to Quentin and Oliver the latter is then angry that Laurel is in training. In a Flashback since Oliver can't remember where the package is Maseo asks his wife Tatsu (Rila Fukushima) to use a concentration technique on him which works. In the present Arrow tracks down Ted's storage locker which has another body but also evidence of vigilantism, Ted shows up and he and Arrow have a short fight but after Ted admits he used to be a vigilante but quit after he beat a drug dealer to death. The two go to the site of the murder where they find Ted's old crime fighting partner Isaac who is mad Ted abandoned him and wants revenge however he escapes and Ted is arrested by police.

Does he even have a vigilante name?

At the Arrowcave Roy tells the rest his nightmares of killing Sara and Felicity admits it is possible with the evidence, Oliver then admits to Diggle and Laurel he doesn't know what to do with Roy. Laurel then gets Ted free, after he admits to her Isaac killed the drug dealer and he abandoned him soon after, however the two are then kidnapped by Isaac. Arrow goes to rescue them (Laurel had her phone on) however Red Arrow shows up later and stops Isaac and asks Arrow not to abandon him, later Arrow goes to Ted to ask him to stop training Laurel however he refuses saying it is her choice. Oliver then tells Roy they should rename him Arsenal and then uses the concentration technique on him; it is revealed Roy didn't kill Sara but was mixing his memories of the time he killed a cop while on his Mirakuru rampage, this still upsets Roy. The episode ends with Laurel asking Ted to train her not just to fight but to be a vigilante and Isaac is later killed by female archer Carrie Cutter AKA Cupid (Amy Gumenick).

FIGHT!

Another episode on a character who I wanted more background on and that was Ted Grant and I am really glad that this episode confirms that he was a vigilante because even of he has retired he could always don his mask again. I liked that this addresses that there where vigilantes in Starling even before Arrow came in to the picture and I liked the whole story between Ted and Isaac and that it mirrored what was happening between Oliver and Roy. Speaking about Roy he too had an interesting subplot and it was good he teamed up with Felicity because I don't think the two have interacted much. It also keeps the mystery of who killed Sara still going however I feel that Roy's subplot could have had more of a focus as well. Then there was Laurel and she is still getting to be a better character now with the way she stuck with Ted and I hope the two team up when they are vigilantes.

Where are the ears?

As for the rest of the episode I admit I didn't like Oliver's attitude much (the boxing glove arrow was great though) because he constantly thought the worse of Ted because he killed one drug dealer but honestly who is he to judge people about killing? It just got on my nerves and him also constantly telling Laurel to stay away from him and to stop training didn't help either. Then there is the Flashbacks and I didn't like them at all because they where just really slow with that whole concentration technique and I find Tatsu to be an annoying bitch; I know she is portraying Katana from the comics but all I see is someone whose attitude I didn't like and can barely stand to watch. I  am not enjoying these Hong Kong Flashbacks that much (except for the Tommy one) because they are just feeling like a waste of time, especially this one which that could have focused more on Roy instead of the bitch Tatsu. However I did like the end of the episode with the introduction of Cupid who I'm really looking forward to seeing and if she is like her comic counterpart she will be a complete nut case.

"I'm Cupid stupid....that rhymes"

Overall glad we got an episode focused on Ted Grant and Roy.

SCORE: 7/10

Arrow Season Two: City of Heroes

The city needs you Oliver!

The episode begins with Diggle and Felicity going to the island to get Oliver who had returned following the destruction of the Glades five months ago because he feels he failed the city however they convince him to return saying it still needs Oliver Queen. In a Flashback Oliver and Shado continue to train and in the present Oliver has returned to find the Glades in ruins. Thea has taken over the Verdant and Roy is her bartender however he frequently goes out to protect the city with the absence of The Hood. Later at an events held by the Mayor, which Laurel attends, it is attacked by a masked group of four men calling themselves "The Hoods" who killed the Mayor and several other; Quentin arrives but his boss reminds him he was demoted for his previous contact with The Hood. Oliver arrives to see Laurel who tells him she regrets cheating on Tommy and blames The Hood for his death. Meanwhile The Hoods are angry that the news care more about the return of Oliver than their actions. At Queen Consolidated Oliver meets with  Isabel Rochev (Summer Glau) who wants to buy the company but Oliver of course wants it himself. The Hoods then attack and Oliver gets Isabel and Felicity out but the latter is angry that he didn't even fight back but Oliver says he still feels too much regret for Tommy's death.

"We are the ultimate Hood fanboys!"

Oliver then later visits his mother in prison who believes she deserves to be there because of The Undertaking meanwhile The Hoods kidnap Thea. Oliver realizes he must be The Hood once again and Felicity takes him to the Arrowcave; showing him the improves and giving him a new bow, we then have a Flashback and the group are attacked by another group. Oliver tracks down The Hoods and takes them all alive to Quentin (now a regular beat cop) and says this is his new way to stop crime, even swearing on Tommy's grave to be a better person. Thea then reconciles with Moira (having been angry with her since The Undertaking) and Oliver successfully buys enough Queen Consolidated stock to be partners with Isabel with the help of Walter. In a Flashback the group kill all the men and wonder where they came from as we see a ship in the distance, in the present Roy tries to prevent a mugging but a blond, female vigilante (Black Canary) wearing all black beats him to it. The episode ends with Oliver wanting to be more than a vigilante and needs a new name for The Hood as he looks at one of his arrows.

It's about time!

This was a real strong start to the new season and if I am honest this is an even better season premiere than the one for the first season. When I first watched this episode I really liked that they are addressing some of the problems the first season had already such as Oliver's lack of a proper hero name and that he used to kill. I don't know about anyone else but I don't like heroes who kill and it looks like Oliver isn't going to do that anymore and wants to be a real hero. Following on from that while crossing off names from the list was interesting I'm glad that Oliver says he wants to do more and really save the city. Plus I liked how Oliver exiled himself to the island because he failed the city in the previous season; it was a surprising twist and that Diggle and Felicity had to go and convince him to come back.

"I'm the new character, pleased to meet you"

What I also liked was how much things have changed in the past five months such as the destruction of the Glades and I am glad that area looks like it will still play a large part and not being ignored. Thea also runs the Verdant now which is good because it gives her character something good to do and I liked how Roy is taking a one man stand against crime in the Glades. I also thought to myself that I am going to like Quentin a lot better this season because he is now a regular beat cop and seems to actually support the vigilante. Isabel seems like she will be an interesting character though when I first saw her I could just tell by the way she acted she will be some kind of antagonist to Oliver however at this point I thought just rival in business. Then there is Moira who, like the Glades, they haven't just ignored and she is suffering from the consequences of last season. Lastly there is the awesome reveal of Black Canary who I was so looking forward to because she is a major Arrow character, like her costume because she wore a domino mask though it did look a bit simple.

"Now this makes my job easy"

As for what I didn't like I will start off with The Hoods and that is because they are just the obvious villain of the week that we will never see or hear from again. Season one suffered a lot from this and even though I know they have to have some of these kind of villains every now and again it didn't help that The Hoods felt underdeveloped. Then there is Laurel who the writers seem to want to have a bad start to the season. I hate that she blames The Hood for what has happened and wants to track him down because after helping him so much this came completely out of no where and felt really forced. The second I heard her say that to Oliver I just knew this is going to create some unnecessary problems for Oliver that frankly the show could do without just like in season one.

Bet that was fun

Overall this is a great to start to the new season and there was a lot to mention but I think I went over all the important points.

SCORE: 8/10

Highlights: Already addressing issues and flaws from season one
                   I like the changes to the city and characters in the five month gap

let - Downs: The Hoods
                     Laurel once again

Arrow Season One: Salvation

Was The Saviour decorating that train?

The episode begins with Oliver going after a slum lord named John Nickel but he is caught by someone else who Oliver thinks could be another vigilante, in a Flashback Oliver and Slade go over the arrangements for the deal with Fyers. At Roy's place Thea is angry that he has to hold on to a gun for someone while Quentin helps Dinah with her investigation but Laurel doesn't really believe Sara is alive. Later a live video on a website sees Nickel killed by someone and after Diggle uses one of his contacts finds out he was killed by a vigilante and former Glades resident called The Saviour who then shows a DA as his next victim. Moira later meets with Frank who suggests they should just run and Laurel investigates the photo Dinah has after giving advice to Thea. Oliver later tries to track down The Saviour's after Felicity finds a signal but soon loses it; Oliver tries to reassure her but she blames herself after the DA is killed. In a Flashback Oliver and Slade meet with Fyers who changes the deal and says he will kill Yao Fei's daughter if the circuit board isn't returned.

That is a really cool coat that Oliver is wearing

In the present Laurel finds out it isn't Sara in the photo which upsets Dinah because he blames herself for Sara death, having known beforehand she was going with Oliver. Thea then visits Roy and stops him from committing a crime however he is soon kidnapped by The Saviour and a video of him is shown on the website. Felicity then figures out that the ambient nose in the video is from an old subway and in a Flashback a huge fight breaks out where Oliver, Slade and Yao Fei's daughter escape but Yao Fei himself is injured and left behind. While Roy says no one would care if he dies The Hood breaks into the subway and kills The Saviour after failing to negotiate with him, Roy is then reunited with Thea. Dinah then leaves town and Oliver attempts to cheer Laurel up because he doesn't want to be alone anymore, in a Flashback Fyers has played them since he has already took the circuit board. Moira then meets with Frank who says she is sorry because she has told Malcolm everything and Frank is then killed by the Dark Archer. Oliver then tries to cheer up Felicity who finds out the journal and everything Moira and the Dark Archer are working on is connected to the Glades.

"It's good to be back"

We got something a bit different this episode, besides The Hood facing off against a villain or corrupt businessman he faces off with a rouge vigilante which is a vigilante that kills and uses sinister methods. I liked The Saviour because he represents the negative effects of The Hood is having on the city because The Saviour did say he was inspired by The Hood. This is something the sometimes troubles heroes like Batman because if he never became a vigilante would villains like The Joker, Riddler or Two Face even exist? Still The Saviour was a villain in the end because he only used his wife's death and helping the Glades to make himself feel better because his victims did only commit minor crimes that normal vigilantes would leave to the police. I also liked The Saviours methods and putting his kills on the internet because it was really different from what he have seen before and he provided quite the challenge for Felicity too.

"Two guns, twice the amount of killing"

I did like the majority of what else happened in the episode such as the progression of Thea and Roy's relationship because like I said before it gives Thea a better storyline and out of all the other romantic subplots, so far it is the only one I could stand to watch. I like how these two are complete opposites as well such as when Thea got angry with the gun because I bet she never really set foot in the Glades before, most likely just doesn't understand how things works for those who live there like Roy. I also liked the appearance of the of the Dark Archer again as well and killing off Frank because it really puts Moira in a predicament. She did is doing all these bad things to protect her family but she is crossing over the line more and more; It sabotaged Robert's boat, got Walter kidnapped and now she framed Frank and got him killed, when is it going to stop for her?

"You've cracked the code Felicity!"

The Flashbacks where great again and we got some great action between Fyers's men and Oliver and Slade. Too bad Yao Fei didn't make it but I guess most of their efforts now will be to rescue him and stop whatever Fyers is going to do with the missile launcher. As for what I didn't like it would have to go to the Quentin and Dinah subplot, don't get me wrong I actually enjoyed it and it did get pretty emotional at the end when Dinah admitted she knew about Sara (strong moment from the Lance Family). However I have said it before and I will say it again; this subplot does feel forced in to the episode, it was like if it was not there it wouldn't really have mattered overall. Maybe it would have been better if once whole episode was focused on this subplot rather than splitting it up over three episodes, now that would have worked in my opinion!

"I was so sceptical at first but now I've made this whole work station"

Overall this was a great episode that we needed after that horrible Huntress one and since Felicity figured out more of that journal maybe Oliver will be investigating The Undertaking more and may even suspect Malcolm soon.

SCORE: 8/10

Highlights: The Saviour was a great villain
                   Moira continues to tread a dark path with Malcolm
                   The interaction with Thea and Roy

Let - Downs: The Quentin and Dinah subplot was good but felt out of place

Gotham Season One: The Balloonman

The episode begins with a Gotham politician who swindled citizens out of their money being lifted in to the air when a man wearing a pig mask straps several weather balloons to him, the press nickname the killer the Balloonman. Gordon and Bullock are assigned to the case but Gordon quickly takes Selina to where the Waynes where murdered; he finds a wallet but Selina manages to give him the slip and escape. Detectives Montoya and Allen question Fish about Cobblepot who has actually just arrived back in Gotham. At the Wayne Manor, Alfred finds out that Bruce is looking over crime scene photos over his parent's murder much to his dismay.

Using a pig mask to approach his victims? Now where have I since this off....

Cobblepot then kills someone who works the kitchens in one of the restaurants of the Maroni family, rivals of the Falcones so he can get a job there. Gordon and Bullock question the man who made the balloons but says three where stolen by a former employee, at night Lt. Bill Cranston, a dirty cop, is the next victim of the Balloonman. Gordon and Bullock then find the employee by asking around Gotham who admits he sold the balloons but cannot remember the face of the person he sold them to. Montoya later visits Barbara to say that she doesn't trust Gordon and it is revealed the two where lovers meanwhile a third victim of the Balloonman falls from the sky and crushes an unsuspecting civilian.

"You see Gordon that's how you handle a woman"

At the restaurant Cobblepot starts off on good terms with Don Salvatore Maroni (David Zayas) while the third victim of the Balloonman was found with a set of keys that belonged to social worker Davis Lamond. Gordon and Bullock go to an old juvenile facility but are ambushed by Lamond at gunpoint who says he is sick of the corruption of Gotham and the way it treated its street kids he wanted to protect so he became a vigilante. After a short fight Lamond is stuck to one of his balloons but Bullock shoots it down after Gordon refuses to let him die like that, before being taken away Lamond warns Gordon that more vigilantes who are sick with Gotham will rise. The episode ends at Gordon and Barbara's apartment but they get a surprise visit from Cobblepot.

Surprise!

This episode introduced the first vigilante in Gotham but of course this one chose to murder those who did wrong. I liked the Ballooman man because first his way of killing was really imaginative, it was like some over the top way a villain would kill someone form the comics and it was funny when that guy came falling back down. He was also a character you can sympathise with because it is Gotham's fault that he killed people because the guy was a good social worker just doing right until he encountered just one injustice too many. His warning to Gordon about more vigilantes rising also gets me hopeful that we will see more like him and how they could affect Gordon if he agrees with them because he wants to make a difference so much but is bound by the law.

"Bye, bye detective"

I am again liking the partnership between Gordon and Bullock because as I have said before the interaction between the two and the way they handle cases is one of the best parts of the show. Like the montage they had when they gathered information on the streets (like in episode 1) and the funny way they raided that apartment and Bullock just slugged that woman who was beating him up. Also even though Bullock wants to come off as detached and thinks they can't really save Gotham I think Gordon and his views are growing on him because he did shoot down the Balloonman at the end.

"I should have though that through a bit more"

Two characters who are defiantly two of the highlights of this show is Selina and Cobblepot. Selina only had a part in the beginning but it was so cool seeing her get out of those handcuffs when Gordon wasn't looking, hopefully she'll get involved in more cases in future episodes. As for Cobblepot he has come back to Gotham sooner than I thought and is joining the rival family, possibly to get revenge on Fish. Cobblepot may be young and isn't yet a somebody in Gotham but he comes across as one of the smartest characters in the show. I don't know why he showed up at Gordon's apartment or why yet he is working for the Maronis but you just get the feeling he has some big master plan in mind. Lastly I liked the scenes with Alfred and Bruce as well, with them having that sword fight which was Alfred's way of trying to get Bruce's mind on something else.

At least you can enjoy the view

Now for what I didn't like in this episode was the reveal that Barbara and Montoya where lovers in the past and that is because I just think it is a cheap way to get Barbara more involved in the story. Barbara's been an alright character so far but this was just the wrong thing to do; if they wanted her to have a secret past with someone than have one with a comic book character not an uninteresting and unlikable character. Your probably going to hear my rip on Montoya a lot in these reviews but that is because she is the b***h in the show and every show seems to have the b***h character you just cannot stand and just want to see killed off. For Revolution its Rachael, The Walking Dead it's Lori and Andrea, in Falling Skies it's Anne (in season 4). In the end is this little subplot between Barbara and Montoya going to important or are we ever going to care? no not really.



Now this was really fun to see

Overall this was just as good as the last one but I did like the villain better in this one.

SCORE: 7/10

Highlights: The Balloonman
                   Cobblepot is up to something
