The Flash: The Complete Second Season (DVD)Last year, the S.T.A.R. Labs Particle Accelerator exploded, creating a dark matter storm that struck forensic scientist Barry Allen — bestowing him with super-speed and making him the fastest man alive. But Barry wasn’t the only person who was given extraordinary abilities that night. The dark matter also created meta-humans — many of whom have wreaked havoc on the city. With the help of the S.T.A.R Labs team, Caitlin Snow, Cisco Ramon and Dr. Harrison Wells, Barry protects the people of Central City from these powerful new threats as The Flash. Following the defeat of Allen's arch-nemesis Eobard Thawne (aka Reverse Flash), Team Flash must quickly turn their attention to the singularity swirling high above Central City, consuming everything in its path. Armed with the heart of a hero and the ability to move at super speeds, Barry charged into the eye of the singularity, but can he actually save his city from impending doom?]]> Review: Another great season that expands the Arrowverse (Prior Season Spoilers) - +++Warning, this contains spoilers from season 1, but no major season two spoilers+++ Season two of The Flash picks up down the line from the events of season one, in which Eobard Thawne was defeated due to Eddie's sacrifice. The team has essentially split with Cisco working for the police department, Caitlyn working at Mercury labs, Iris mourning Eddie's death, and Barry trying to singlehandedly take down the various evil metahumans. The big bad is set up early in the season, revealing that Zoom, an evil speedster on a different Earth, Earth-2 is sending metahumans to Earth-1 to take out Barry. Barry is joined by Earth 2's version of The Flash, Jay Garrick, played by Teddy Sears (from the series Masters of Sex) to help Barry take down Zoom. Zoom's identity is kept secret until later in the season, but when he does make his first couple of appearances, he is voiced by Tony Todd. The season also expands the Arrowverse. First, there is the annual crossover with the parent series Arrow, which set up the cast and storyline of the first season of Legends of Tomorrow and served as a backdoor pilot for that series. Second, later in the season, Barry crosses over to Supergirl, which was in its first season and airing on CBS. That established that Supergirl was on yet another Earth, fully entrenching the multiverse concept which would be key, especially for later crossover episodes. Of course, the show has a ton of twists and turns, and given the multiverse and time travel aspects of the show characters who are dead do not always stay that way. The multiverse also gave a way for the show to keep Tom Cavanaugh (who of course played Eobard Thawne impersonating Harrison Wells as Earth-2's Well, called Harry, comes to Earth-1 to help the team take down Zoom. For those who get the blu-ray set, the show again looks and sounds great in HD, with the special effects looking nearly seamless. Because the Flash's speed requires using animation, you can tell the difference between when it is Grant Gustin in the suit versus an animated version of the character, but even that blends in pretty well. The extras include deleted scenes, several short behind-the-scenes featurettes, a gag reel, and a half-hour-long panel discussion with the showrunners and cast from the 2015 Paley Fest. Overall, the season is very good. It is well-written and very well-acted. The season ends on a pretty massive cliffhanger that will definitely have an impact on season three. It is more light-hearted than Arrow, overall, although it does have some dark moments of its own. It also includes a lot of good guest stars including Peyton List, Mark Hamill (reprising his role as Trickster), Aaron Douglas (from the remade Battlestar series), and more. Of course, characters from Arrow appear on the show, and Amanda Pays reprises her role as Tina McGee, a version of the character she played in the 1990 Flash series. So, if you liked or loved season 1, you will probably feel the same way about season two. Since the Arrowverse is now starting to tell intertwined stories within the case or metahuman-of-the-week procedural format, you almost have to watch all of the shows to understand everything that is going on in the others.

Doesn't make much sense a lot of the time, but hey, it's the Flash, did it ever make sense? It's just fun
(Contains minor spoilers) Season 2 made far less sense than Season 1 (the plot sort of "zoomed" over how Zoom had even done all the hundreds of of things he had throughout the season, including his spotty motivations that relied heavily on the tried and true "he's just crazy" excuse) and broke even more time travel laws than Eobard Thawne did, but this season also had some of my favorite moments of the entire series. Welcome to Earth-2 and Escape from Earth-2 have to be two of my favorite episodes in the entire Arrowverse, and the addition of Wally West to the cast was a stroke of genius - he's an earnest character that isn't too much of a bad boy or a boy scout to be considered a trope, and ends up bringing a lot of honest emotion and real character development to what could have been a very flat character. Jesse Wells has to easily be one of my least favorite characters, her sole existence seems to hinge on griping at Earth 2 Wells and trying to wrench "heart felt" moments from him but ends up making her character seem like a whining, spoiled harpy who can't, not once, even say "thanks for rescuing me". The ending, of course, is it's own beast, and I'll leave it up to you to decide whether you love it or (like me) hate it. But all in all it was a strong season full of visual pops and unexpected turns that'll have you jumping out of your seat screaming "WHAAAAAT?!" just as often as it'll have you jumping out of your seat screaming "YOU'RE SO STUPID!!!! WHY COULDN'T YOU JUST [obviously the right thing to do that if they'd done it would've made the season way shorter but would've made ten times more sense]" If you loved the first season, you will definitely love the second season. PS: Cisco is still amazing.

Blu-ray版の方は日本語音声・字幕がついています。 Season1の時みたくDisc2からDisc1に変えて日本語メニューを出すという煩わしい作業も無くなりました。 日本版を買うと倍以上の値段がするので日本版じゃなきゃ嫌だっていう拘りがなければアリだと思います。 個人的には海外版のパッケージが好みなので自分は海外版一択です!!

N'étant pas une fan de comics, j'ai pourtant tout de suite accroché à l'intrigue et aux personnages. Les épisodes sont bien construits, les effets spéciaux réussis et les acteurs(trices) jouent à merveille leurs personnages. De plus, l'humour y est bienvenu malgré que cette saison soit plus sombre que la précédente. J'attends avec impatience la saison 3.
