Arrow Season 5 Episode 17 "Kapiushon" Review


Prometheus goes to extreme lengths to destroy Oliver. In flashbacks, Oliver's violent tendencies come to a head in a confrontation with Anatoly.

This was a really interesting and great episode that I really loved the fact that it only focused on Oliver. It was also really great how this episode was mostly backstory and an actual really interesting backstory compared to some other episodes where the backstory felt random and unnecessary. And it was interesting what happened to Kovar and how Oliver grew into a monster. I liked they gave a little moment of Oliver getting the tattoo for the Bratva and showed the growing relationship between Oliver and Anatoly. Prometheus's whole interrogation scenes were interesting with all the different things Prometheus did to mess with Oliver. I liked that they brought Evelyn back in this episode but I don't like what they did with her because I was willing to accept her back into Team Arrow. It was a little annoying how undetailed Prometheus was with his questions because he just kept saying to Oliver over and over again "Tell me your secret," and what does that mean exactly. Now when Oliver finally did tell Prometheus what he wanted to hear it was very interesting but also not all that surprising to me. I'm very curious to see what they are going to do now that Oliver doesn't want to be the Green Arrow anymore and wants Team Arrow to stop. And just overall this was a really great episode that was so entertaining and interesting to watch.
