Featured reviews
Team arrow is pretty lame. It's like they went from a show for adolescents and adult to a show for kids
After episodes of trying and trying I have fainlly stopped watching Arrow, Left it Midway season 6. Season 1 and 2 of the show were pure GOLD. Season 3 the show got a little sloppy. Season 4 was just terrible. Season 5 went surprisingly good and season 6 is just very boring and and terrible.
The show lost its spark after season 3 and Arrow 's new "team" is just unbearable. If you compare it with Team Flash. The show lost its Billionaire Playboy Charm and the Dark cool Arrow long back, even Felicity and Diggle are annoying now. It feels like Greg Berlanti just lost his focus from the show.
I hope they gain back the Season 1 spark.
Arrow is the show that started it all for the CW and the Arrowverse and through all the good (The Flash) to bad (Black Lightning) shows that followed, Arrow is still the best of them. Yes, it had a few down seasons but overall the show was terrific! It tells the story of billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) as he returns a changed man after the world presumed him dead when his yacht sank at sea. He becomes the vigilante Green Arrow and tries to clean up the city. He starts off by himself by slowly puts a team together as they fight to put away criminals in Star City. I can't say enough about Stephen Amell and the job he did. He was perfectly cast as Oliver Queen and is the face (along with Grant Gustin as The Flash) of the entire Arrowverse.
Arrow went in style, and looking back left us both unforgettable seasons and regular seasons, but never all bad.
It concludes by giving a good ending to almost all the protagonists that the series had over the years and a sweet ending to the path of Oliver, the creator of the now known Arrowverse
