Bloodline (TV Series) Part 25 (2017) User Reviews

Keep on going Bloodline

[pauleta_mtr · 9/10 · 28 May 2017]

Wow... are we still watching Bloodline? The same show that always slowly built up rhythm to the grand finale? Forget about slowly moving things in third season. I mentioned in the first episode that the pace was very good, but in the second one we have even more sharper action. An hour with Bloodline feels like 15 minutes.

We're still at the same night, that we were in the second season finale. Everything is dark and tension gets higher and higher with every minute. Well written, well acted, as always. Every situation involving Kevin is amazing in this episode. The conversation with John over the phone, the scene in Marco's house. Everything. I also like the actor who plays Gilbert's man. His calm voice compared to panicking Kevin makes their scene incredibly tense.

What happened after that was unecpected, very emotional and kept me on the edge of seat. Superb opening to the final eight hours with the show. Good job, Bloodline crew.

Out of control

I'd actually argue that this was the best episode of Bloodline. No dull spots. Tense the whole entire time. Phenomenal plot line, and some of the most tense scenes I've ever seen.

More of going nowhere

If the previous episode was a slow night move to nowhere, this adds up to the same. It takes place in what must be the longest night in TV shows and Kevin does more damage to himself and other, agreeing to go ahead with Roy Gilbert plan, while at the same time also asking John for help.

Gilbert's part in the plot turns the tale labyrinthine, with way too many twists to be believable. It was already far fetched to believe that the police would not close Danny's case when the guilty part was caught, as if police in Florida has time and resources to spare for personal vendettas.

Even stretching it and accepting the fact that Marco was doing his private investigation to hit back at Meg, it is way too much to imply that Lowry was also Gilbert's associate and that Gilbert is way more powerful than the audience would think.

John is still pretty much useless, Danny's ghost very annoying, just as Sally is, a character that changes her mind every five minutes. First she loves Danny, then she wants nothing to do with Nolan and his mum, but actually they can stay at the resort and maybe she used to care about Danny, but now that Kevin is hurt, John must find the guilty part, even if they both killed Danny... and so on...

And Meg is still drunk, a clear sign that the writers did not know what to do with her character anymore, unless she joins her killer brothers, since by now each of them has killed at least a man.
