This Flash review contains spoilers.
Maybe it was because I was mildly disappointed with the first two episodes of season two.
Only mildly, mind you.
And its a long season.
On its very worst day, its always saved by the cast.
But this episode, which has the added bonus of adding in the aforementioned Mssrs.
Ironside and Miller, plus Peyton List as Lisa Snart, and there were sparks again.
Most of Flashs villains arent maniacal killers, or even particularly powerful crime bosses.
They just love committing crime.
Theyre super criminals who love the thrill of a good heist and living outside the law.
There are some downsides, though.
Are we to believe that Iris didnt remember calling 911 when her Mom overdosed on the couch?
It just felt a little unclear, and things went a little too smoothly with Iris and Joe.
All in all, though, this was a rather well-balanced episode.
Good for some solid chuckles, no?
Who the Hell is Harrison Wells?
I…I got nothing.
Im pretty much always wrong about Harrison, so that probably wont change this year.
But that seemed like a needlessly sinister entrance for him, didnt it?
Flash Facts!
Lewis Snart being a scumbag and Lens complete devotion to Lisa is straight out of Flash history.
Also…did Jay get a haircut?
The baseball game the security guards are watching contains canon teams.
Assuming real-time, that would make the Arrowverse World Series a cross-the-river affair that should be getting some headlines.
Let me know what I missed, and Ill get em added!
