Warning! This Review Contains Spoilers for Peacemaker Season 2, Episode 3.Peacemaker‘s latest episode is one of have been waiting for a long time, as it brings back one of my favorite characters from the Old Dceu Movie franchise. It is well known that the LAST dC live-action universal HAD ITS FAAR OF ISSURE. Howver, i’m of the Mind that it did have a few bright spots.
Peacemaker is proof of that, as the show originated in the dceu before moving over with 2 for the dcu’s chapter one as James Gunn and Peter Safran the Next Dec releses. Episode 2 Did A Nice Job of Setting Up A Deeper Dive Into The DCU Interdimensional Storyline. Peacemaker Season 2, Episode 2’s Ending Featured A Major Choice.
John Cena’s Peacemaker Chose to Pursue the Alternate’s Emilia Harcourt, Going to Her Dimension, AFTER BEING TURNED YET AGAIN BY THE DCU VERSION OF Jennifer Holland’s Character. I was excited to see how Peacemaker claiming to be his alternate self, WHOM he accedally killed, would pan out. The result is as is expensive: a delightful Mess with Many Thrills.
Rick Flag Returns in Two Different Ways
There is no way to talk about episode 3 with Addressing the elephant in the room. Joel Kinnaman’s Rick Flag is Back! Well, Kind of. While he remains dead in the main dcu timeline, we get a flashback that explains a lot, as well as the alternate universe version of the character. Both use of Rick Flag Connect to Harcourt.
Peacemaker Season 2’s decision to flash back to 3 years ago, revealing that harcourt and flag were romantically linked before his death in james gunn’s The suicide squadis illuminating. That is why Harcourt Can Never Truly Make Peace with Cena’s Character. Flag was talking about leaving the enchantress for her, but Peacemaker killed Him before he had the chance.
While the dc series has nicell development Peacemaker, I still have a hard time with flag’s Death. SO DOES HARCOUT. That’s why the alternate universe look so enticing right now, as it offers a way for Peacemaker to be with a version of Emilia not impact by The suicide squad‘S Events.
AFTER ALL, The Alternate Universe’s Version of Rick Flag is Alive and Well. From the start, IMAGINED THE SHOW WOULD G IN THAT Direction with the Character. There is the fact that Frank Grillo’s Rick Flag Sr. Plays a Major Role in Peacemaker Season 2, so has Having a Way for Him to Interact With His Son Feels Natural.
Peacemaker Gets Violent Again
While Rick Flag’s Return Is The Biggest Talking Point of Episode 3, Peacemaker‘s exploration of the alternate universe ALSO LED to an Exciting Action Sequence and a Heartfelt Conversation with Harcourt. Their Date of Sorts Made It Sound a Lot Like HIS Alternate Self Was Closer to His Old, Annoying Person Rather than The Improved Version of the Character after Season 1.
There is a future for Harcourt and the dcu peacemaker if he stays in this universe. So far, the series is all about giving chris reasons why being in this alternate universe is better for Him. Howver, i’m not sura it can be as pitch-perfect as it seames.
While we were just for the other shoe to drop, Peacemaker DELIVERS A Thrling Action Sequence to Go With The Interdimensional Exploration. While cena has great dramatic and customs range, his background in the wwe helps sell peacemaker’s violent feats.
The Show Continue to Remind Us of Its TV-Ma Status, and Peacemaker Violently Dispatching A Group of Criminals to Stop Bombs from Going Falls in Line with That. Episode 3 ends Peacemaker‘S Latest Chapter With the Character Feeling on Top of the World. Will This Last Forever? Doubtful, but episodes 4 will definitively Answer it Next Week.
