Arrow review – 2×21: ‘City Of Blood’

May 1, 2014 by Joe Lipsett

‘City Of Blood’ plays like a typical pre-finale episode: there’s a lot of set-up, a whole bunch of hand-wringing and a few giant cliffhangers. Hold on to your hoods.

Arrow review – 2×13: ‘Heir To The Demon’

February 6, 2014 by Joe Lipsett

It’s a Sara (Caity Lotz)-centric episode as the absent Lance daughter returns home. But it’s not the happy homecoming she expects, especially when a lethal ex-lover and her sister Laurel (Katie Cassidy) find out.

It’s the “broken toys” club on this week’s Arrow as Oliver (Stephen Amell) must find a way to fix Roy (Colton Haynes) and Laurel (Katie Cassidy), both of whom are spiraling out of control. The solutions are extreme as the masks come off for both.

Arrow review – 2×01: ‘City Of Heroes’

October 10, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

One show was a huge surprise last year – the rare kind of self-assured show that jumps out of the box relatively fully-formed, with a distinctive tone and well-defined (albeit work-in-progress) characters. That show was Arrow and it’s finally back for S2. Is the magic still here?

Finally! We are finally reunited with Walter (Colin Salmon), we are reminded that Moira (Susanna Thompson) has no heart and we learn through flashbacks what the undertaking is all about. Arrow offers up more information as the first season starts to wind down.
