The Flash: Pilot – City of Heros
So even i didn’t finshed the second season of Arrow yet, i couldn’t resist to watch the pilot of The Flash. So here we go.
I am Barry Allan
Barry Allan is a character i loved from the moment he gets out of the taxi in the Arrow Episodes (Arrow S02EP08 & 09). He is cute, sweet and a little clamsy. He is never on time, is super intellgent but can never think of good excuses. We know his backstory from Arrow but of course they also tells us what happend in The Flash too. His Mother died, someone killed her, something supernatural but nobody believes him. The police arrest his father for murder. The father of his best friends is taking care of him from now one. His bestfriend is someone or the someone that Barry really likes and wanted to be with.
When he gets struck by the bold of lighting, he falls in coma for 9 months. The world changed. His bestfriend Iris is together with a detectiv and her father doesn’t know. Also the people that are kinda at fault for what happend to him, begann to become friends, people that want to help or maybe there is more?
Just a boy that got struck by a blod of lighting
That is what the professor tolds him. He is no hero and will never be. His body could be the answer for so many questions, problems and everything, that the can’t risk to loose it when he plays hero. But Barry Allen is a hero. From the first moment on, because he never let anything happen. Even when everyone is stronger than him, he will try do to the right thing. Even with out this power he was a hero. The only that thing is never saws that before. All the little things that makes him a hero. So it was sweet that he actually go to Oliver to ask for an advice. Oliver that isn’t really a hero, he was more like a angel of death. Of course this changed in the second season but that is the starting point and Oliver knows that. It is good that Oliver sees that hero in him.
Do we want to watch it?
Totally. I don’t know want i think about the story, but the characters are loveble, believeble and interessting. I want to watch Barry grew in that role. I want to see him and his second-father interacted. I want to see what his new friends are really are, if they are what we think they are. I want to know who the professor is and why he is lying about his legs and why he has a newspaper from the future. So yeah i will keep looking.
