REVIEW: The Flash – Season 7 Episode 16 “P.O.W.”
AlexGherzo | Jul 7, 2021 | 0
The Flash is finally on the right track, even if it’s a little too late to make much of an impact. “P.O.W.” is a good episode that should have been better, but it’s let down by what came before it. Season 7 has been so dull and haphazardly constructed that, now that we’re finally getting &...

Well, the good news is that “Enemy at the Gates” is a marked improvement over The Flash’s recent output. The bad news is that the last few episodes have been so bad that there was almost nowhere to go but up. (I say “almost” because I’m learning not to underestimate modern television.) ...

Why does The Flash insist on sending off its departing stars with lackluster episodes? Harrison Wells got the dull, weightless “All’s Wells That Ends Wells,” and now Cisco is stuck with “Good-Bye Vibrations” (because he used to be Vibe, hardy-har-har). While the final moments are fitting f...

AlexGherzo | May 26, 2021 | 2
“Family Matters Part 2,” the maddeningly uneven follow-up to last week’s cliffhanger, has some wonderful moments and a great thematic structure but dilutes that with awful dialogue, a shockingly bad subplot, and an overcomplication of the Forces and their natures. In the end, it’s a muddle o...
