Gotham 1x09 Harvey Dent

Hey guys,

just finished watching the ninth episode of Gotham entitled Harvey Dent. The title gives away what could have been a major surprise which is the introduction of Gotham's White Knight and Batman's most famous enemies. The episode was really good at times, I found one of the positives to be Bruce and Selina relationship. Selina is starting to warm up to Bruce and to finally enjoy life off the streets of Gotham. I love this deviation from the comics and I think that this relationship is what the show needs to get better. 

As for Harvey's introduction I found him to be very interesting and one of the few honest people left in Gotham. He could be of huge help to Jim Gordon. As every character we were introduced to in this television series we caught a glimpse of what the characters are eventually gonna turn into. They already showed us his trick with the coin and they also showed us how easily he lost his temper however I think that for the foreseeable future he'll stick on the side of the good guys.


So, there were some positives in this episode, however I thought that this week's villain was kind of irrelevant and the action scenes were very unrealistic. For instance, I feel that the scene where they broke that guy out of the truck was extremely unreal. How come those trained policeman went down really fast, I mean they got out of the truck recklessly and they didn't even manage to hurt one of the criminals, instead they got killed with one bullet each.


Another negative of tonight's episode was also Oswald Cobblepot and they way he handled him finding out about Fish's mole. I thought the whole compromise or deal he offered to that girl was not very useful and not like him. He usually is the best part of the show but this time around he could have been better.

Here's next episode sneak peek
