REVIEW: The Flash, Episode 402
After the season premiere last week, The Flash returns once again with another episode, this one entitled “Mixed Signals”, and in it we met another metahuman, one who can control technology.
We all probably already heard someone say that technology would one day turn against us, but in the latest episode of The Flash that was probably much more literal than everyone was expecting. In the first scene of the episode, we saw a guy getting killed by an elevator (I am guessing that was a first), and when the Flash Team went to investigate, they found out it was hacked. But that poor man was just the beginning, because the meta went after another guy, hacking his car. Luckily for him, the Flash managed to save his life, but barely actually, because Barry thought he could do everything by himself (more on that latter). After finding out a connection between these two targets, Team Flash found the killer, and that was when technology really started failing the Team. All those great attributes Cisco added to the suit, literally turned against Barry. I guess the latest model would have worked just fine. Barry decided to trust Iris this time, and he did what she told him to, which probably saved his life.
It was after they put Ramsey Deacon behind bars that questions started popping up. Ramsey was nowhere near Central City when the particle accelerator exploded, so he gained his powers in a whole new way. Maybe that has something to do with The Thinker? Could be, since he seemed interested in these new metahumans in the end of the episode. To be honest, it kind of looks like they are trying to stall The Thinker storyline a little bit. Even though he was in both these episodes, he was only in the last minute of each one. I hope we will find out more about him or his plan soon, because it wouldn’t be that interesting to see Barry fight some random metahumans for most of the season, when there seems to be a much better villain in Central City.
It was really nice seeing Barry happy in the beginning of the episode. We usually see him so worried about saving everyone, and having to fight the bad guys, that he usually doesn’t even get to enjoy life as Barry Allen. Because of all this, it was really great seeing him singing and dancing while making breakfast, and even catching up on TV at flash speed. But of course things can’t only be bright, and that was why Iris decided to go to couple’s therapy. The first session was a total failure, but the second one was much more productive. Even though I don’t agree with Iris very often, she was totally right in this one, because Barry really did bail on her. I always thought the last season finale was a bit weird and there were a few things which didn’t add up, and this was totally one of them. Barry really did run away from everyone. He simply told them a few last words, and left, without any idea if he would ever get back or not. Finally, he decided to face that, and told Iris he didn’t want her to stop him. That kind of makes sense, but also doesn’t really at the same time. He could have totally tried to find another way before giving himself in. But controversial matters aside, I was glad Barry and Iris ended the episode happy and with their wedding plans still intact.
Another couple that ended the episode happy was Cisco and Gypsy. That’s right, Gypsy is back. I really like her and the relationship between her and Cisco. They are so funny and great together. This time, Gypsy came to celebrate day 111 (whatever that is; maybe a different version of Valentine’s day?), but Cisco didn’t know about it, so he cancelled their date to go catch the bad guy. It was so funny seeing that Gypsy did care about her world’s tradition, but she was pretending she didn’t, so that she wouldn’t sound sentimental. They ended up celebrating the day 112 instead, which probably lead to the same.
Overall, this was a good episode, better than the premiere in my opinion. It felt a little bit like going back to the beginning of the show, when they were all fighting to live another day. I am giving this episode an 8.5/10.
Next episode is entitled “Luck Be a Lady”, and luck will definitely play a major part in it, since there will be a new metahuman who gives people bad luck. And, to make things better, Harry Wells is coming back, so you really shouldn’t miss it.

REVIEW: DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Episode 301
After a great season and a huge break, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow is back with this first episode of the third season entitled “Aruba-Con” and this episode really seemed to set up for this season, which, by the way, looks like will be a great one.
After blowing up every existing time line ever, the Legends realized they really really screwed very badly this time. Unfortunately for them, some people were already trying to put these anachronisms where and when they belong: The Time Bureau, created by Rip. This means the Legends aren’t needed anymore, so they all go their separate ways, and start living normal lives. But of course that after one becomes a Legend and goes on great adventures throughout space and time, you can’t simply start living like everyone else. This was present especially with Jax, because we found out he dropped out of school, because no motor would be as fun to fix as one of a time travel ship.
It was hilarious seeing Sarah working at a store, trying all the time to fight her dark impulse to murder her boss. Jay started working on a company which managed a dating app, and I guess you can say he wasn’t very thrilled about it. The one who seemed to be doing better when it comes to heroism was Nate, who was occasionally working with Kid Flash. The most heartbreaking thing about all this was that, after realizing he really loved Amaya in the end of last season, we found out they split up and that she went back to 1942. Hope it won’ take long to see them back together.
Of course, things really start to change when Julius Caesar shows up in Aruba, and Rory finds him, or better, he finds Rory. This was exactly the start the team needed to get back on their feet, so some of them started to team up again very close to the beginning. They snuck into the Time Bureau and found out they really didn’t like the Legends. Sure they are sloppy, but they at least get the job done. Maybe they do end up creating more chaos, but they also solve that. Let’s say it in a non-ending cycle, but that is what makes the show great.
After wrongly realizing Rory’s Caesar wasn’t THE Caesar, the Legends realized they had to take matters into their own hands and catch him themselves. They steal the Waverider, put together the rest of the team, expect Amaya, and headed back to Aruba. It was amazing seeing JC trying to recruit some teenagers into joining him conquering the world. After Sarah totally kicked his ass, they took him to the ship and locked him up. In my opinion, it was amazing seeing Sarah kind of identify herself in JC, when it comes to give Caesar to the bureau or just take him to his own time herself. Sarah realized she started that mess, so he was going to help fixing it.
But of course this wouldn’t be Legends of Tomorrow if it was this simple. They did take him back to ancient Rome, but not without changing all of history, just because of one book. This was what brought the Legends and the Bureau to work together, bringing back the history we all remember. But, since this is the Legends we are talking about, things got sloppy and they started taking down Caesar’s army. The god news is that, in the end of the day, the Legends were the ones who saved the day, making the Bureau realize they aren’t as bad as they thought.
As I said, this episode did set up the season, and that seemed to be in a scene close to end, a scene between Rip and agent Sharpe, where they talk about someone who is coming: Mallus. Maybe this is going to be the new villain of the season. It definitely feels like a great one already, so I can’t wait to find out more.
In the end, we found out Amaya is also up to something since we saw her take down a group of men she called rapist with her power, but I am sure we will find out more about it soon.
Overall, I really liked this episode. It had great pace, great action scenes, comedy… everything this show as always had. I am giving it a 8.8/10.
Next week’s episode is entitled “Freak Show” and in it we will meet P. T. Barnum’s great show back in 1870, so don’t miss it.
REVIEW: The Flash, Episode 401
After a very long hiatus (as usual), The Flash is finally back with this season four premiere, entitled “The Flash Reborn”. In it, the fight between team flash and the bad guys continued, as Barry returned.
Six months after the events of last season, team Flash (or Team Kid Flash, or even Team Vibe), kept on taking down bad guys, and I was so glad Iris finally started to do something. It feels like she really doesn’t do many good things to help the team, but in this episode, it was like she was almost a different character. The episode started with the team successfully catching Peek-a-Boo, which was a great choice, in contrary to bringing a whole new meta-human they weren’t going to develop.
Meanwhile, we saw how life was without Barry. It was good to see that everyone moved on, instead of just falling apart and drowning in self-pity like the people Barry saw when he traveled to the future in the previous season. Joe continued dating Cecile, and they were even going to move in together. Everyone really seemed happy (or at least as happy as they could be without Barry). It was just a shame we didn’t get to see Harry, or Doctor Wells, or whatever you want to call him, but I am sure Tom Cavanagh will be back real soon.
It was after this that the real trouble started: a samurai showed up demanding the Flash. The real flash. He said they had a day to get him back or he would destroy Central City, and he definitely showed he could do it. Nothing like desperation and pressure of having everyone killed to get a job done, so Cisco revealed he had been working on a way to bring Barry back. With Caitlin’s help (she turned to a bartender, which is definitely weird), they managed to do it, but it really did not go as expected. Barry did come back but he had totally lost his mind.
After trying to find ways to actually bring Barry back from that miserable state of his (and failing), the team was really starting to give up. It is really fair to say Barry completely lost it. Of course it did make sense, because even though I don’t fully understand what the “Speed Force” is, they said maybe he knew the secrets of the universe, or something, , not to mention he was tortured for who knows how many time (since time may move differently in the Speed Force). In a total leap of faith, Iris surrendered herself to the samurai, hoping that would make Barry come back. Call her crazy but it did work. Barry put all of his personal trouble aside and literally ran after his fiancé, faster than anyone on this planet ever ran.
After doing what the Flash does, Barry found out the samurai was a robot. They went back to Star Labs and the episode almost had a happy ending, if it wasn’t for 2 things: Caitlin didn’t really succeed in keeping Killer Frost at bay, since she still pops up every now and then, when she gets mad; and we saw the new villain of the season: The Thinker.
I was really glad when I found out the new villain wasn’t going to be a speedster again. It was cool seeing Barry had to fight someone with a similar gift than him, meaning he had to always outrun them, but this idea doesn’t last forever and, in my opinion, season 3 was proof of that, since it is definitely my least favorite season up until this point. Now with The Thinker, I really hope things will take a much different turn for the better and this show starts to get back on its feet.
We only had a small glance of him, so we don’t really know what to expect yet, but seeing that robot was simply one of his minions, he will totally be a very dangerous foe, I am really can’t wait to see more of this Thinker.
This was a good start for this season. There wasn’t much about it that was surprising, since I think I can speak for everyone when I say that we totally knew the Flash was going to be back, but it is just the beginning, so let’s give it a chance. I am giving this episode an 8.3/10.
The second episode of this forth season is entitled “Mixed Signals”, and in it we will be introduced to another meta-human, while Barry will adjust to a life he left behind six month before, so don’t miss it.
