Spoilers Ahead!!!!
Gotham once again continues its hot streak!!
We are finally introduced to the man who will become Bane. Shane West did a great job at portraying a two face (pun intended) snake. Should be interesting as to who he is working with, I hope that it is the Court of Owl's.
The Riddler's story line was awesome. Cory Michael Smith's performance was outstanding. The reintroduction to Dr. Hugo Strange was awesome! I loved the reference to Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker, regarding the chip in Edward's head.
What I was afraid of came to pass, Selina and Bruce hit another turning point in their relationship. While this was something I prepared for to come, I think she is going through what Bruce went through in season 4. I think she will finally come around when she realizes that Bruce is the only person who really cares about her. Once again, David Mazouz and Camren Bicondova delivered some outstanding performances.
The scene between Harvel Bullock and Bruce Wayne was perfect. I feel that was the push he needed to help him in the future when he becomes Batman. Donal Logue's performance was very good as well. Very rare scene between the two of them, hope we get more of it towards the end of this season.
The best part in the episode was the end! Jeremiah Valeska survived his attack by Selina, because of body armor. While Gotham's actors are awesome, this scene alone showed that Cameron Monaghan is the best actor on Gotham. His laugh was perfect as well. Looking forward to him embodying the Joker more. I'm ready for him to take the next step in his master plan! Gotham, please do not mess him up.
Overall, tonight's episode of Gotham was another great one. The episode's highlights were the introduction to Bane, plenty of heart surounding it, setting up intriguing future story lines, and strong performances from Cameron Monaghan, Shane West, and Cory Michael Smith.
Out of 4 stars I would give it...
