The Flash: S2: Ep23 : The Race of His Life (2016) review

 tarring………….. Candice Patton, Grant Gustin and Danielle Panabaker



Director……….Antonio Negret



Synopsis



With Zoom true plan revealed. Team Flash fears Barry’s resolve to do whatever it takes to stop him.




Warning spoilers ahead



My review


Season finale of the flash starts off with highlights of season 2 good opening there sort of recap and then it open up with Barry see his father being killed by zoom Zoom did this so Barry can Embrace the hate sort of like stars wars there but Barry does not give in almost did though if he did zoom would of win easy but after that we had a nice Funeral for Henry it was sad for Barry.



Zoom has Challenge Barry to a race Barry accept but after see His father death is he ok to go against him team flash think not so they put him in meta jail but was that right thing to do too have them take down zoom without Barry helped will be tough and they had a plan did not work and now zoom has Joe so now best thing to do is release flash to go after him right still Team flash is having doubts though you can tell this was sort of build up in last episode as well.



Zoom later on talks to Joe about man in mask and it was indeed the real Jay Garrick so he stole his name at the start too fool team flash do good storytelling there Barry does get out thanks to Wally and accept zoom race so get ready the finale race is on.



A very good race with lots on the line in a huge wheel once power up it will Destory Earth 2 so Barry create a copy to fool zoom and then they have a nice fight and Barry did not kill him let say all the time zoom broke Time catch up with as time Wraiths catch up with him and made zoom ugly as well so that end of zoom.


The final 15th show us who was under the mask of mask man trap by zoom it was Jay Garrick who look like his father Barry had a tough time with with it though at first don’t blame him but he did get over it and then we see wells and Jesse leave to go back to earth 2 will be missing them that for sure.



Now how does season 2 end it ends with Barry talking about Iris how much a mess he is too Iris and she tells him to do what has to do she be right here waiting for him as she goes in Barry says sorry everybody and he starts running I said oh bet he going to save his mom and restart the timeline and change and that how it ended with him doing that mind blowing cliff hanger for season 2 ending.



Not a bad ending to season finale of season 2 which was indeed good some up and downs but did enjoy zoom as bad guy and huge thank you Tony Todd who did amazing voice as zoom Good story of zoom vs the flash so indeed another great season of the flash here and then we got to meet the real Jay Garrick as well who could maybe help Barry though the rough times ahead in season 3 Speaking of season three I have a huge announcement when reviews come back soon probably in late October will let you know I hope you enjoy my review of season 2 of the flash thanks again and have a good night.



I give the flash season 2 finale a rating of 8/10

The Flash: S2: Ep 22 : invincible (2016) Review

 Starring…………… Grant Gustin, Danielle Panabaker and Candice Patton



Director………Jesse Warn



Synopsis


Zoom unleashes an army of earth 2 Meta- humans, the leader of which is Black canary’s doppelgänger, Black Siren, Joe worries when Wally goes out to help The Flash.



Warning spoilers ahead



My Review


After the way episode ended last week it was not looking good after Zoom unleashed a big arm of meta Humans against central city they started off showing highlights of and how they took them down it was fast take down but Christina was in trouble as black Canary try to take her down in building lucky flash was there to save her and she knows Barry secret as well.


Wally is trying to help out but Joe yell at him some so Wally think he doubt him some little bit of drama Speaking of that team flash thinks the way Barry is acting after coming back as well too me I find out interesting for writing.


Black Siren earth 2 is Laurel lance from earth 2 and boy she took down the flash easy lucky Wally was there to help after flash told him not too.



Cisco finds a way to Distract black Siren whole he try to down the Army of zone with big sound boom that will kill all zoom friends so Caitlin and Cisco dress up as frost and vibe it did work lucky they got it working super sound took all them down but not zoom he got away which team does not know but for now Caitlin and rest are ok yes she got away from him but she be fine.


So they think zoom is gone and go ahead and throw Henry a party Tina was there and boy see them two together brings back flash 90’s vibes very cool moment for writers to throw that in just when things was looking ok you know they throw something huge for leading up to season finale and they did Cisco has a vibe see earth 2 being Destroyed and then we see zoom grab Barry father then there I know something bad was going to happen was right boom that ending was tough to watch a not too bad episode.



Would like a out war between zoom friends and team flash see that with police who could not win so they find a way to take them out easy the flash zoom story just picked up more with that ending it was tough to see barry lose someone he loved again in same house ouch will give that too writers who wanted to added more heat to zoom for finale of season 2 will be reviewing that here in a bit get ready season 2 of finale of the flash review coming up in the next hour.



I give the flash S2 Ep22 a rating of 8/10

The Flash S2: E21 : The Runaway Dinosaur (2016) review

 Starring…………. Candice Patton, Danielle Panabaker and Grant Gustin



Director…….. Keith smith



Synopsis


Iris Volunteers to act as the belt in a plan to trap Girder in S..T..A.R labs, Barry struggles to go back to his old life.



Warning spoilers ahead



My Review


Last episode left us in sort of cliffhanger ending it was huge with team flash see Barry Vanish out of no and Jesse and Wally getting knocked out you got to wonder what next for team flash well here is next episode review we almost to end of season as well.


Episode starts with the Reaction to what happen to Barry lots of Anger and sadness as well as wells try to call Jesse and Wally no one was answer it so they find them in hallway on the floor they were a little knock think Jesse

Took the worst it knock her out pretty good so how to cure her is the question.



Later on Cisco vibes by the flash suit and see him trapped somewhere this where it gets interesting because now he trapped in speed force and he meets the one behind his power as Joe and force tell him his must catch something they had a talk Barry must pass the test and catch something very fast outside to get his powers back Barry though episode is doubt himself as speed force takes many forms of people his knows even his father as well.



While the going on team flash has a huge problem Tony Todd is back as zombie this time and is after Iris so now team flash has to figure out a way to stop him without the flash will be tough one.



Barry better hurry and pass the test and get back to save them the final test is talking to Barry mom they are trying to get him to accept his powers this going to be a tough one and hard but can Barry pass test this was probably a tear jerker writers did a great job on this moment too there but after a few talks he catch the thing and Iris does get him out but Barry can’t rest yet since zombie Tony was tough but flash beat him again welcome back Barry welcome back so cool.


After that he saves Jesse with 1 small bolt of lighting on the hand very cool think Barry got better speed now to face Zoom Speaking of zoom last few moments are bone chilling with zoom giving Caitlin a chance to stick with him or leave but warn her what happens to her if she leaves will give her something to think about after that zoom is see talking to his friends which is a whole meta Army of bad guys this will give team flash a test next episode but will say that way is a good way to end episode since there only 2 episodes left will say this probably the best episode yet of the flash will tell you what I think in my final thoughts below.



Great episode with speed force teaching Barry a lesson that helped him to get his speed back and what better way is to take everybody he knows in true form it was indeed tough to watch though even I tear up but was a great moment see Barry mom alive even though it was speed force to do that there good writing. The other thing got to keep team flash even more busy with the return of Tony Todd as a zombie make it kind of cool it was a test for team flash without Barry for a short time lucky Barry pass the test there now hopefully he ready to fight zoom because after that mind blowing ended he and team flash better be sure they come up with something thumbs up too this episode it was great for writing and acting as well.


That it for this week review sorry it was little late Tuesday was busy but next Tuesday the final 2 episodes reviews of season 2 will be up before taking a break so get ready for final 2 episodes review on Tuesday of next week for now have a good rest of your week.



I give the flash S2: E21 a rating of 8/10

The flash :S2 : E20 : Rupture (2016) episode review

 Starring……….. Grant Gustin, Candice Patton and Danielle Panabaker



Director……….. Armen V. Kevorkian



Synopsis


Just as wells comes up with a plan to defeat Zoom, Zoom returns hellbent on destroying Central city. Meanwhile, Cisco has a vision of his brother, and Iris come terms with her feelings.



Warning spoilers ahead




My review


Episode starts with team flash making a Hologram flash to trick the bad guys working good at first but for how long wells was right someone will figure it out and it will not fool zoom long so team flash had a little talk and didn’t go long so Barry goes and visits his dad up at cabin and when Barry told him about Jay there was interesting moment could name Jay Garrick then he goes back to lab and saying he staying around this time but bad news Zoom is back in the city and more dangerous then and also Cisco brother from earth 2 has showed up as well so team flash better make a Decision fast.



Later on Iris comes out for her feelings which is ok but now not the time right now try and get speed back and fight zoom who going to attack police with his plan his plan failed after Caitlin warn team flash about attack but zoom got his revenge on police he killed a lot of them and sending a message to him so they going to need the flash back fast they so going to try wells plan and this is accelerator but as they getting ready Wally and Jesse who dumb got out of safe room they should of listen but never do listen last 3 mins see Cisco do a Harry Potter wand Mention nice little Easter egg there or quote and lighting hits his wand zoom see it and runs better hurry and lighting hit Barry and Vanished and zoom says the most painful thing just to rub it so episode ends with you wonder if Barry is gone or not music ends episode like a cliffhanger for season finale good thing it was not.



Very good episode of the flash another one without Barry powers and attempt there at end to get it back but failed so ending makes you wonder where Barry goes it is good and What happen to jesse and Wally they should of listen but hopefully they be ok zoom was more of threat here then any episodes he been one heck of Villain for season 2 here probably the best one yet and again added Tony Todd voice as zoom makes him more scary as well next episode will be important one of season 2 as we close to end of season so after this one next week there be lots more to talk about next week so to everybody have a good rest of your week.




I give the flash :S2 : E20 a rating of 8/10

The Flash S2 : E19: Back to Normal (2016) Episode review

 Starring……… Grant Gustin, Candice Patton and Danielle Panabaker


Director………… John F. Showalter



Synopsis



As Barry adjusts to life without his superpowers, a super-strong meta-human abducts Harrison, and Wally pesters Joe for a meeting with the flash.



Warning spoilers ahead



My Review



Back to normal it is Barry has no speed and it is back to normal and now zoom got Caitlin does not look good for team flash right now they got a lot of figure out too do like he get his powers back and get her back the episode opens up with Barry riding the bus and waiting to get coffee slowing good music too fit in well with Barry being normal again.



Later on Caitlin meets killer frost which is interesting she try to get her to free her but will Caitlin trust her or not is ? I would not trust.



Then also wells go see Jesse who is still mad at him so he leaves and someone from the wells past who now ages fast he is 18 so he got wells just what team flash don’t need now but anything can help in this meta city huh.


Caitlin later on goes ahead and free killer frost but it was mistake as she almost kill her but zoom kill frost giving her a warning and then zoom out very interesting writing there.



After that we see the team go after grey or Griffin as he continue to age more with each punch this was there plan have him to keep doing that unit the end flash took a small beating it does work as team flash took down a easy but small dangerous guy with superpowers. After that Jesse and wells talk it over and are good now.


Zoom has handcuffed Caitlin she said she wants to go back to earth 🌍 but zoom has indeed other plans which is interesting to see where that goes in the next episode.



The episode ends with wells talking to Barry to do a reboot on how he got his speed by rebuilt that machine that give him the powers in first episode oh boy that will be either good or by but what a cliffhanger there leading to the next episode.



Good episode this was with Barry having no powers some drama but good writing on meta but he may of been easy but he still give them one heck of a fight so probably not the best episode but good is what I think.



I give the flash S2: E19 a rating of 7/10

The Flash S2: E18 : Versus Zoom (2016) episode review


Starring………. Grant Gustin, Candice Patton and Danielle Panabaker


Director………. Stefan Pieszcynski

Synopsis

Barry, having now learn how to travel between the different earths, decides to take the fight to zoom.


Warning spoilers ahead



My Review

In this episode starts off with a kid that is Hunter trouble past story his mom was killed by his father seem like a bad life or trouble past .

After that we see Barry used that speed thing on his chest that can make him fast sure did he went so fast this here you take a peck when he run too supergirl earth and back he does tell anybody about supergirl world not yet later down the road they will meet her so now that Barry has more speed he has to find a way to find him and get back to earth 2 this where it gets interesting later they asked wells about Cisco Doppelgänger Evil version and ask him about his powers then they come up with idea that Cisco can use them to open the Portal or Breach only problem is can’t for some reason at first time 2nd time he was close but this got zoom Excited when he was opening it but Cisco didn’t want to do it for reason maybe he a little scared of being evil.

Later Joe invites Wally to stay with him and he says yes good moment there


And Cisco later on open the gate and Zoom did come out and look like plan was working it backfired later as zoom got Wally now he wants Barry speed for Wally life so Barry has big decision there.


So what does he do after a talk with zoom and the gang he goes ahead and give up the speed that fast and zoom now has his speed and to make things worst Caitlin as well to end the episode there which I was not a fan of there.


Not best episode but ok that last moments was indeed tough to watch now Barry don’t have his speed he will be a human yet again which should be interesting how it goes and how he get his speed back that is in future episodes ahead least we find out some of Hunter story though and how he become zoom and his past as well good thing they give us that as well so this will end this week review see you next week for the next review.


I give this the flash :S2 E18 a rating of 7/10

The Flash S2: E17 : Flash Back (2016) episode review

 Starring…………. Grant Gustin, Candice Patton and Danielle panabaker



Director…………. Alice Troughton



Synopsis



To become fast enough to beat zoom, Barry travels back in time to consult with Dr. Wells/ Eobard Thawne but incurs the wrath of a time Wraith.



Warning spoilers ahead



My Review


Episode starts with Barry talking about being Betrayed by Jay and wells good opening there after that the team is still trying to get Barry to be faster then Zoom so he can beat him so Barry comes up with idea to go back into time team flash think he crazy doing it I was as well but if it only way give it a risk then later he does jump back into time and wells you can tell he acting odd this flash is after he knock out the flash of this time then later wells figures out guess you can say his plan may of backfired but also another problem is evil looking monsters time Wraiths are mad at Barry for time travel they hates speeders who mess with time so now they out to get rid of Barry.


Also wells does help him with his problem with a chip that could make him faster if he can get home the other flash does wake up and had a odd moment see 2 flashes side by side pretty cool moment there so Barry does go back in time but time Wraiths ugly looking things try to stop him lucky he got back but things was looking bad when Hartley save him wow so now in Barry time he a good guy ok I can deal with that I guess he may of change that back in time there but again cool episode ends with Barry showing Iris a record from Eddie when he went back in time he said he found it so maybe this will help Iris move on and it did pay off later as see in episodes ahead the episode ends with Barry who now figures out the key 🔑 to more speed by saying I am coming for you as episode ends.




Great episode of the flash there he did something I would not but he was lucky it payed off with evil wells knowing stuff and the time Wraiths things after him was real threat somehow he got RF to cave and give him the key to be faster at the end when he put in machine it would not work but it did now it is time to figure out how to get it which will be address in next episode pretty good episode of the flash not the best will still say great though.



That is it for this week review see you next week for more reviews of this great show.



I give the flash S2 E17 a rating of 7/10

Smallville : S2 : Rosetta (2003) episode review

 Starring……… Christopher Reeve, Tom welling and Michael Rosenbaum



Director………. James Marshall



Synopsis



Clark has some weird dreams with the cave and about flying. When he puts the octagonal key in a hole the wall of cave.



Warning ⚠️ spoilers ahead



My Review


This one out many of my favorite episodes of smallville because for first time I years I get to see Christopher Reeve again he does have a good role in this which fit in very well I will get to that later on this is going to be a fun review.



Episode starts in a odd but good way where Clark is dreaming about cave and key he puts in and wakes up on highway and lex almost runs over him good writing there to have lex being the one who find him in this series they are friends but later on In series. Clark finds key and later on goes to cave and get got a huge download now he can read messages in Kryptonite messages which is cool but his mom and dad are not happy with him so there a little fighting as well I understand they are trying to Protect him but it is time to let him found out more after he using his heat power and put a message on the barn door Chloe does see it and using it as news in her paper which is can of rude.



Later on clark gets a email from Dr Virgil Swann aka Christopher Reeve message read he has info for you my guess after hearing about barn thing he figure he try and get a hold of him but Clark but will his parents say no after a little fight they agree to let him go after that we get to the good stuff this was a great moment for me as well Christopher Reeve I have not see in years so it was great see him again they give him the right character for this one 👍🏼 indeed for this one he give Clark the messages which help him out.


Then after that they had a great Scene with j Jonathan and Clark talking about what he learn and then together Clark found out ship key that turn on ship with another message Clark was doubtful but Jonathan told him the truth and he was right pretty much a good way to end episode with father and son moment a great episode it was it is rank number 1 on my episodes of all Time of series as well.



Final thoughts

One of best episode right there some drama with Lana and Chloe over Lana going though her private stuff but they made up though but I didn’t care about that much also lex end up when stuff what Clark was doing had me worry because each time I figure he was close to finding out truth that was good writing as well some of best acting was in this as well again it was my favorite episode of smallville and I do anybody who has not see episode do because it was indeed a great one.



I give Smallville Rosetta a rating of 9.5/10 for amazing.

Stranger things: S4: Chapter 8 : Papa (2022) Review

 Starring……….. Winona Ryder, David Harbour and Millie Bobby Brown


Directors……. Matt Duffer, Ross Duffer



Synopsis



Nancy has sobering visions , and El passes an important test. Back in Hawkins, the gang gathers supplies and prepares for battle.




Warning spoilers ahead



My Review



Only 1 episode left of season 4 to review for this season of this great show seem to be going to bye fast as this last 2 episodes the battle between evil and good will indeed heat up and I can’t wait too see how season ends.



The episode starts with Nancy being trapped and see the the whole story of Vecna and she was lucky they got her out too or else she would of died then it goes the creepy intro with music which is still great bye the way.


I just love the Scene between Joyce and hopper it been so long and now they are back to together but for how long because ugly monsters are getting close and it is time to go war but great moment.



Then later we see eleven get her powers back about time she looking ready or maybe just a little more training and see will be just like how they writing this then just getting back with nothing happen in one episode good writing there.



We then see Will and Mike talk about El you can tell Will trying to Mike his feelings about him that don’t bug me but will say interesting to see where that goes before the end of season or maybe they save that for season 5.



Then El father tells her the truth if vecna kill 1 more people it will be the end of the world and upside down world will invade Hawkins which is not good so we see El see her friends talk about they too figure out his plan and now want to end it for good before his plan Works then we find who last member he needs it is max figure after they talk last time this got me worry for Characters because I have feelings someone will die before season ends.


We then see hopper and Joyce and rest make though the first gate but how they get home is the ? Later on we find out they do have something but bad news it is not ready to go just yet oh boy the guy behind it is a dummy in my view.


While the gang goes looking for guns bad news is Jason and his friends are there Nancy and him had a had lucky they got away this time next time won’t be easy is what I think.



El story got more interesting when we find out the truth on her father sounds like he create all this mess and she blames him at first I wasn’t sure to trust him still or not because I had a feeling he was hiding something now pretty much we know story some very good writing there I must say but when all this is going on Military is getting close to them they think eleven is a threat and trying to end her so her father gets her out but as he trying to save her just as they getting ready to shot her Mike and Gang shows up good timing and eleven use her powers to kick there ass alright then we see gang Reunite with her then she gets one last talk with papa can of sad moment there so the question is how eleven going to even make it is 2000 miles away not much hope there is what I thinking so can’t wait to see where that goes I am sure they will have a plan .



The episode ended in a great way with journey music playing in background as they have reach the home where Vecna is at no talking just a great way too lead us intro the season finale great episode here.



Man this season has indeed been worth the wait all episodes I see but great for writing and action as Will this episode prove it that for worried about all characters for season because there will be death and will be sad as well for tv I see many characters die all I can say hope it not Dustin, max or Steve but I have a feeling it will be probably be max because he is after her so will see and also we see if hopper and gang get back to America safe as well also interesting to find out how eleven gets back in time to save gang because they are miles away and it not well looking good I am sure they will find a way I can’t not believe next week is the finale review of season and probably for a long too they take 2-3 years just to get episodes to us that pretty long break but you have to do it too make the final series season good I will say eleven saying goodbye to her father was sad but not too sad because he wasn’t a nice father in the end he was something but what we learn from past not much good writing there though.



This close out this week review a little late but lucky to get it out before night ends been fun and get ready next week is season finale for season 4 of stranger things and last review of show for a whole so get ready for that but for now have a great night and see you next week.



I give stranger things S4 Chapter 8 a rating of 8.5/10
