Wow, just wow. The long wait for ARROW"S 5th season definitely did not disappoint and seems to be the beginning of what could be the best season of ARROW yet. This review of the season premiere, "LEGACY" will have minor spoilers, however nothing major.For all of those people (including myself) who were disappointed with a selected number of second half of the fourth season, ARROW is finally back (YAY) with what seems to be the biggest, darkest and goriest seasons to date. The flashbacks are truly fantastic, and very debatable to be best season of flashbacks we will see. This season (and last, unfortunately) of flashbacks s have started off to be very engaging, with you wanting to see much more of them, something that season 4 lacked. The actual plot of season 5 starts with basically everyone not doing their best. Importantly, Oliver is a horrible mayor and (what is left of) the team is not in best shape. The city is not improving in the way that Oliver needs it to. There are however, numerous familiar faces and references to past events which was a personal win for myself. Season 5 starts the process of "rebuilding" the show from its previous season, and by the way that the premiere played out, has definitely got back on track with keeping the audience engaged and wanting more every time an episode ends.
The Verdict:
+ Great Start to the Season + Interesting plot that feels extremely strong + A more darker Green Arrow, like season 1 + A minor Flashpoint effect
9.5 / 10
This season of ARROW looks to be one fans ans show runners undoubtedly deserve.
