Arrow: Season 2 [Blu-ray]

LIKE BATMAN BEGINS.. BUT WITH ARROWS YOU'LL LOVE IT! As a kid I never read Green Arrow Comics, I read Batman, Wolverine, Punisher, Moon Knight.. the realistic hard core heroes of DC and MARVEL.. little did I know Green Arrow fits very nicely in the company of those guys.. at least this one on TV does.. ITS no joke..

So far we have seen the beginning of the Emerald Archer from the island to the city. This journey has been wrought with love, tragedy, death and rebirth. Now in season two, we see the start of the true Hero that this has led up to...from "the Hood" to "Green Arrow" As Oliver said, when the hood goes on, it's kill or be killed, now, as Green Arrow, a new path to Justice has opened it's door. With the help of Diggle and Felicity, there is a new way to dispense that justice without the body count.

I've a feeling we will see more of the old DC version of Oliver {i.e. more non lethal trick arrows)

We started watching this show shortly after it came out looking for an alternative to some of the other shows that had become too complex and convoluted. The plot and interesting characters pulled us into story. I was actually expecting that the second season would be a flop because of the success of the first season. To my pleasant surprise, the second season has been excellent like the first one.

It's often said that Ron Moore's award winning "Battlestar Galactica" series was "like a movie spread out over 4 seasons". The CW's "Arrow" trumps that: every episode is an action movie packed into 45 minutes. The writing is superb, the stunts are intense, and the actors display an amiable array of talent.

If you haven't watched "Arrow", you need to start--or you have failed to appreciate good TV.

Big fans of this superhero show! it feels more like a movie quality - from the actors to the stages/scenes. My 16 year old son turned me on to this show and so now my younger 2 sons (14 and 12) watch it ASAP. For a while we were gorging on season 1 on Netflix, and were watching 1 show a night. Now we are almost caught up on Hulu but 3 episodes were MIA (purchased them on amazon). The main characters are all real life cool, plus omg that body!! I really don't need to name a name here... 8) he is SO good as Oliver - calm, humble, but all knowing without being cheesy. The 2nd season had a big surprise start with a return of a "dead" character and although we like her, the actor has many uncomfortable and unnatural mouth expressions that do distract us a bit. I only mention this because the role is significant and all of us notice it a lot. We really love the intelligent, MIT educated female sidekick Felicity )my 16 year old is infatuated big time) and her genuine quirkiness -a dork in disguise. :) we all Love Felicity. The fights on this show are epic and original. A triple head slam against a wall is something that comes to mind from season 1 but there is an endless list.

Everything you would want, expect and more from an action thriller. Arrow gives justice to our superhero the green arrow.

This could be as good as Smallville was. I think it's hitting its stride. It's got the action, the vibe and seems to have a developing story line.

The premiere was everything I hoped and more, yet the season pass still isn't up?! What gives? It ought to have been up when they put the little training teaser up here, and here it is, the night of the premiere and I still can't give them my money so I can watch it over and over again at my leisure? Don't even get me started on how my friend and I were going to watch this week's SHIELD and found it wasn't up yet. They at least had the season pass up in advance like sensible folk.

After "Burn notice" ended, this is the show I been looking for and I'm glad I have gave a chance. Now can't have enough of it. Bought season 2.

The perfect way to start the journey for Oliver to turn from the Hood, to Green Arrow!!! I don't want to give anything away, but the episode is an amazing start to what promises to be an incredible season!
