The Legends of Tomorrow season finale puts the team back where they started.
Here’s our full review.
This Legends of Tomorrow review contains spoilers.
Legends of Tomorrow Episode 16
Im not ready to die.
This was a very good episode ofLegends of Tomorrow.
And you know how I know it was so good?
Because they even found an emotional moment for Gideon.
But Legendary comes as close as this show has ever come.
What sets Legendary apart?
It wasnt just the efficient storytelling or the boatloads of action.
Once again, the visuals really elevated things.
How killer was the Waverider tumbling into the sun shot?
), but it felt like this one upped its game with the way it was shot.
I thought the Rip hallucinating his family in a sunlit Waverider shots were beautiful, even cinematic.
Things just looked solid from start to finish.
That alone wouldnt be enough.
Everyones actions and reactions made sense.
He does this week, and it felt good.
I do hope hes a better leader next year, for his sake.
On that note, the exit of the Hawks for season two makes sense.
Without Vandal around, it kind of eliminates their main purpose on the show.
Plus, I was getting a little tired of how useless Carter was.
Instead, it was usually the more cartoon friendly matter transmutation stuff.
I didnt realize that would be prophetic.
So, Im pretty sure the soldier who croaks in France is Sgt.
So, for real…was that Sgt.
And if so, wasnt he a little young to be the grizzled Rock?
Im a little confused.
c’mon straighten me out.
It kind of merged the best of the Golden and Silver Age Hawk origins into something appropriately modern.
Its not how it played out here, but the basic idea of that merging is the same.
Rex Tyler is Hourman!!!
Either way, this is extraordinarily awesome.
Hourman first appeared inAdventure Comics#48 in 1940.
Hes a founding member of the JSA.
Special note:at one point the CW was developing an Hourman TV series, but it never happened.
Ladies and gents, thanks for reading my ramblings every week.
Ill probably be back reviewingLegends of TomorrowSeason 2 in the Fall.
I mean, seriously, theres a JSA angle, theres no way Im not doing this, right?
