The Female of the Species

Another hugely enjoyable episode. So much going on here and it's all layered which I loved. Astonishing set-pieces, intriguing new characters, death, violence and action, all rolled into one.

This episode is weaker than the other's, but it's still pretty good. It develops the story arc quite well by exploring the downsides to being a part of Butchers vigilante group, and that is the lack of freedom, aswell as the questionable moral decisions.

(Shortened summary in the bottom of the review)

I really like where the show is going and how it approach the superhero genre in a really raw and grotesque compared to most other, if not even any other live action superhero movie, even darker than the likes of Watchmen, Logan and Brightburn.

The blend in humor in this show also makes it even darker in a way, because the way that everyone is so unserious while so many just die around them in this dark concept world is just terrifying and creepy in a way.

All in all has this show come a long way and i fully recommend that you give this episode a go!!

(9/10)

Shortened summary: The show is quick and closely approaching something really dark in this amazing comic book to live action show.

From the fight sequence to the inspirational pep talk, everything is awesome. Homelander's presence gives the chills, specially that airplane sequence. Chemistry between the leads is good.

4 out of 5 stars.

This episode was a bit of a shocker. From the emotional powerful moment with the hijacking airplane sequence with homelander supposedly trying to rescue. To the hilarious dark moment with deep trying to rescue a dolphin. To Butchers funny weird pep talk. While his team is trying to get to this lady with powers before A train does. A lot of moving pieces and exciting moments.
