Arrow: Disbanded (2017)
I am *not* Bratva?
With the previous episode ending with Oliver disbanding Team Arrow, because of Adrian's successful attempts to break him and make him realize what a psychotic murderer Queen is, I was looking forward to a bit more than just our everyday Joe Queen.
Oliver, although seen completely hopeless, has still one card left, one trick up his sleeve that he thinks he can use against Chase.
And what would be better than to call our very own Brotherhood back in the present day game? That was the highlight of the episode, for me. But it all started feeling like taking a turn down the drain when Team Arrow started interrupting the Bratva's plans and all.
I get that it was one of the only way to help save Ollie's soul, but there would've been other ways than to let Chase run free rather than holding him in custody. Just another excuse to get the season running.
With that off of my chest, I love the flashbacks and how Anatoly requests Oliver to stay, in confusion of what he might become if he leaves and then, showing us exactly how crooked he had become. Team Arrow got to reveal Chase's identity to the public and that's another thing I was expecting from this episode which it did.
So, apart from a few things, this episode wasn't that bad at all. I'm curious to see where does this leave Oliver with the Bratva. Do they wage a war aainst their American captain or does Anatoly respect his friendship with Oliver? Guess there's only one way to find out.
+ Chase's identity revealed and escape.
+ Team Arrow's undying hope
- Being too nosy in the affairs of other people
Arrow: Kapiushon (2017)
You have saved this season!
This episode, among quite a few others this season with this one at the top, define Arrow, what it is, how it came to be. "Kapiushon" explains what the previous season of Arrow failed to achieve.
A solid storyline.
Fight sequences that were well executed.
An excellent mix of the flashback and the present day scenes connecting each other simultaneously.
The dialogue and it's importance and most of all, it reminds you how great both of the villains are.
Josh Segarra (Adrian Chase/Prometheus) and Dolph Lundgren (Konstantin Kovar) present you with exemplary and amazing performances to their roles that tells you how talented both of the actors are, especially with Dolph being a personal favorite of mine.
Overall, the entire episode was one of the bests this season has provided so far and I'm excited for the future episodes and expect the same.
My rating would be 9.7/10.
