Alright so I'm just going to start this review off saying I didn't rate this show 7 stars because its emmy worthy or because the acting is the best possible(although the actors do help deliver the shows tone and have cute moments), but its not trying to be, Arrow, The Flash and Supergirl all tried their hardest to be taken seriously, sure The Flash is still funnier than Arrow but the writers did want you to take it seriously, this is the only one that right from the get go isn't trying to get you to take it seriously, in fact the first season is so campy, Wentworth Miller, the other guy from Prison Break and Brendon Routh are all standouts particularly, probably due to years of acting experience, but you can tell they really care about the material they have. Other reviews may have mentioned but yes, Season 1 is very very predictable, but give it a chance because if you love camp, comedy and fun action scenes(not John Wick level, think goofy Arrow with superpowers, an Assassin and a time traveler lmao), you'll love the show. Once you get past Season 1 you'll quickly realize that although at times it can be predictable the show can sometimes get so bonkers and absurd that it does suprise you and in the best and funnest way possible, now I know I did say they don't try to get you take it seriously from the get go and thats because they don't, but they do stop at least once or twice a season to give the character's and actors a chance to get emotional and it is very well deserved, I can guarantee that you will love the characters by the time you get through Season 1, and from then they just keep on improving. So are the villians any good? Well in the first season theres one and hes not really good honestly, but thats okay because the heroes are the main spotlight, but Season 2 and 3 have very good villians, so fear not there. Overall this show is a great time, don't go in expecting Breaking Bad, but also don't go in expecting Arrow Season 4. Its the only Arrowverse show thats stayed consistant in every season, including 4 from what I've seen. I'd say its worth a watch and if you don't want to watch the whole thing, at the very least give the first season a try.
