SPOILERS AHEAD!!
From its hilarious opening with the Penguin, to its spine chilling showdown between Ecco and Catwoman, and to the jaw dropping final scene, Gotham continues to show why it is arguably, the best superhero show.
Robin Lord Taylor's portrayal of the Penguin seems to be getting better as the seasons go on, his one liners as well are funny. Should be interesting when him and Gordon team up next week.
Jim Gordon's story line was a good one, but the ending blew me away. I have always said that Ben Mckenzie's performance as Jim Gordon is the best portrayal of Gordon is the best ever, and tonight's episode solidified my claim, in my opinion. Ben's acting is one of the strongest of the show, the way he can portray a optimistic depsite everything that is going on, proves he is a strong actor. Should be interesting when he and Penguin team up next week.
Bat and Cat finaly had another episode of just them, and David Mazouz and Camren Bicondova's chemistry was outstanding as usual, hope we get more of it next week. The fight I was most excited for was Bat and Cat against the Mutant Gang, and it did not disappoint. Camren Bicondova is doing a fine job at playing a playful and flirty Selina while around Bruce, but her acting picked up when she began playing Catwoman and showed how she is changing. David Mazouz did a great job showing how much he cares about Selina, and Bruce boldly pointed it out to her in this episode. David is slowly emodying the Batman personality, and he is doing a great job at it.
Harley Quinn (or Proto Harley) made her debut this episode, and Francesca Root-Dodson did a phenomenal job at it. In my opinion, that was the best version of Harley Quinn, Proto or not, she brought out the dark side of Quinn, and her fight scene with Selina was awesome as well. Looking forward to Jeremiah making his long awaited return next week!
Overall, tonight's episode of Gotham was no doubt the best episode of the season so far. The episode heavily benefited from its jaw dropping ending, strong character development, well written dialogue, intense and well shot action scenes, strong chemistry between David Mazouz and Camren Bicondova, and powerful performances from Robin Lord Taylor and Ben Mckenzie.
Out of 4 stars I would give it...
