Critic Review:
The second season of Arrow boasts more fantastic action, as well as a widening cast of intriguing, richly written characters. All in all, pretty solid season opener. To be honest, it just felt good to be back in Starling City, and the writers managed to set up plenty of intrigue for the coming season. The episode finally examines some of the major structural weaknesses of the previous season, simultaneously explaining and moving past the first year's more curious decisions. |

Best tv show about heroes ever made!!! The character are just awesome, Stephen Amell gives an amazing acting as Oliver Queen. Arrow took such a big leap in season 2. This show is a must watch for the DC lore itself. The story plays out in 2 timelines. The present timeline in which Oliver is the bow and arrow vigilante and the Island timeline which shows Oliver slowly becoming the Vigilante we see in the present. Also, the action in season 2 has been superb! Enjoy the ride I never read a comic book in my life. This show is not changing that but it is VERY interesting. The plot is good, the stories don't get stale and it NEVER EVER drags. Something new happens every single week. This can't be told about other shows; making Arrow superior in that aspect...stories never drag. |

Critic Review:
CW nails the target with Arrow, a comic book-inspired series that benefits from cinematic action sequences, strong plotting, and intriguing characters. Arrow is a smart, action-packed drama that appeals to viewers of all ages, and can rope in the fanboys. It's younger, sexier and dependent on superhero violence, featuring Stephen Amell as eye candy. Solid start to what could -- and maybe should -- be a future CW franchise. By almost all measures, Arrow is one of the season's more promising pilots. It's a sharper little tale than expected. Arrow is the best new show from the CW. Arrow is still a very slick piece of work . |

It's the best series premiere of this fall season. Everything is right and it has a thing that reminds me of Batman Begins. I only hope they keep it that way. One of the best new shows of 2012. Drew me in the moment I started watching it. Each episode not only shows Oliver's hunt for the people who have "failed Starling City" but also shows Oliver's time on the Island. As a pilot, this has been a refreshing start and I hope this series continues in the same vein. The writing was strong and the story arcs that it seems to be developing are all interesting. I look forward to more episodes at this level. |
