Part of this review may be a rant (Okay, most of it is a rant) because this is a show that has so much potential to be amazing and it keeps letting me down. The first season was so “great”, the second season was “good”, but this season is more “okay”. Due to some questionable…
It has been a while since I posted a review, but I made sure to see this as soon as possible so I could write up a semi-early review. Marvel has been on a hot streak lately with their films and television shows. There have been some good superhero films this year and some pretty…
Right off the bat, the second season of The Flash is not as strong as the first. At times it feels like the show is trying to reproduce some of the same plot points from the first season (with less success), but when the show strives is when it goes off the rails into new…
I am a huge fan of the X-Men franchise. There are only two films that I would consider to be “bad”, which is an amazing feat for a franchise with now 8 installments. I actually was not too excited for this film, mainly because the trailers never quite got me too excited. I even read…
The first season of Daredevil turned out to be quite great. It instantly became my favorite superhero show. Netflix also released Jessica Jones last year, which is pretty good. Its’ first season was not as great as Daredevil‘s, but it still had a solid Netflix debut. Now we are in Daredevil‘s sophomore season and somehow…
This has been a particularly hard week. I told myself I would not read any reviews for the film, but I was unable to fulfill that promise. I started reading these reviews wrought out of hatred and malcontent. Naturally I prepared myself for the worst, but still had hopes of a good film. Now that…
What a great first season. While I do believe Daredevil is the superior show, this is a show that fully embraces what it is, and excels at telling an engaging superhero story. Not only that, but it has some great music, great actors, memorable characters, along with impressive special effects. While Arrow may have disappointed…
It is interesting, I absolutely loved last season of Arrow. The first season was great, but it did have several missteps. However, this season was very clunky. Now, I still enjoyed it, but there was a definite lack of focus that made the past two seasons so much better. The Demon’s Head Before I get…
I am very glad with the direction of live action superhero television shows.The CW’s Arrow is a fantastic show, let alone superhero show, and the Flash is their newest contribution to the genre. While it does not share Arrow’s darkness, it is off to a good start. Superhero Origins The show has a few missteps…
