Airdate:11/29/16
Rating:***** (5 stars)
The main plot of this episode was a crossover between The Flash, Kara Danvers aka Supergirl, The Legions, Arrow, Thea Queen, and Felicity al teaming up to fight the villain of the week. Wally aka Kid Flash wanted to help, but since he is just starting to get his powers it’s not a good idea Wally gets hurt in battle. The villain of the week was the Dominators a group of aliens that date back to the 50’s, and until three months ago when a recording was released with the Dominators voice. Barry tells everyone when they’re all assembled that he can’t be trusted; because he went to flash point and saved his mother so he not only changed his timeline;but due to a ripple effect he changed other people’s timelines that were in the room. Due to this Barry wants to stay behind while the rest of the group goes to fight the Dominators, Oliver Queen aka the Green Arrow says that he will stay behind to keep an eye on Barry but the group calls them and needs their help so they go to the group. The show ended with Wally being injured, as previously said and taken to Star Labs to get help.
This show was a show with many quotable moments, here are just a few of my favorites but I would recommend that you watch this show as there are many quotes that aren’t listed here. “What makes her so super”? “Since when is Robin Hood calling the shots”? “What are you going to call when you need my help”? “Red skirt.” “People make choices and those choices affect everyone around them”.-Oliver “Hey Supergirl it’s time to see who's faster” – Barry. That one was my favorite quote of the whole show.
There were so many things about this episode that I love;, and nothing I disliked I thought that this was a perfect crossover;, and a perfect way to combine all the worlds that were on the show together. The first thing I loved was everyone teaming up to fight evil, it was some of my favorite superheroes teaming up and fighting evil together, and I loved the family dynamic on the show. The second thing was the dialogue, which is why I gave it a full paragraph in this review this episode was full of so many witty lines and I couldn’t get enough of the episode. The flow, seeing as it was a crossover I wasn’t sure how the pacing and the flow were going to go, seeing as not many people were on Supergirl the other night but the flow and the pace of the show were fantastic. How everyone brought something to the table, this is something like everyone working as a team to fight evil but everyone brought their own power and their own abilities to help the team win against evil in a way. The story it was something that was interesting, not really that new but I thought it really worked well for a crossover style show and I loved it so much. I don’t watch the show Arrow, so stay tuned for the Legions review on Friday for the conclusion of this big crossover.
