The Flash 1x05 Plastique review

Hey guys,

just finished watching the fifth episode of the hit tv show the Flash. It was another fantastic episode full of actions, character development, great stories and this very episode featured a very special character: Plastique as the title suggests.

This incarnation of Plastique was more true to the comics than the version we saw in Smallville, however I didn't like the fact that they had her die by the end of the episode. Though her powers were kind of useless to the team I love her antihero style but I get that she had to die because she would have been a target not only to herself but also to team Flash if she had stayed. 

The best part of the show, without a doubt, was witnessing Barry's growing powers. In the beginning of the episode we saw him run vertically on a building and I loved how they explained it from a physical point of view and then they did the same thing for when he had to run on water. Those scenes were fantastic because Barry enjoyed himself as much as we did. 

I also love Barry's encounter as the Flash with Iris and their kind of Superman Lois meeting and I think that this will be how Iris will follow in love with Barry. She'll first fall in love with the Flash and then with his best friend.

Overall the show is fantastic, however if I had to find a negative it would be the Eddie Thawne character which is supposed to be much more important or mysterious, instead it is only a tool used to make Barry jealous. Here's hoping that the situation will change in the upcoming episodes.

Here's next week sneak peek
