Like Arrow's premiere, i think it's a 7.5/10. Some really good scenes, but the rest was pretty average. My biggest gripe probably has to be the horrid CGI. But a really close second would be the fact that there is no FIGHT SCENES. I mean, yes, there are fight scenes, but this is the goddamn Atom Smasher. You can do a lot with him, and all he does is grow maybe like 2-3 feet taller, grab Barry, and smash him against the wall.

They didn't do much with someone who has a lot of potential for great fight scenes. I also think the fact that normal timeline him dying is really weird, but hey, what can you do? But it still had touching scenes, some solid dialogue and ultimately deserving that 7.5/10.
