The Flash (2014) - S2 • E23 Ratings & Reviews
Black Nerd Problems
Ja-Quan Greene
Could I have gone for a little more action? All the way YES. But the finished product was superb so I ain't even mad.
Nerdist
Joseph McCabe
The Scarlet Speedster confronts Zoom one final time, when the two race to see who's really the fastest man alive. Or at least that's why Zoom says they're racing.
Polygon
Charlie Hall
In what may be one of the strangest, most tone-deaf storylines of any episode this season the writers actually found a way to wave off what would otherwise be extremely creepy as merely cute.
IGN Movies
Jesse Schedeen
The season finale, was at least an improvement, but still not the ideal way to wrap up Season 2. By that point it felt as though the writers had waited too long to reveal Zoom's master plan.
ScreenCrush
Kevin Fitzpatrick
There's much more to consider going into Season 3 than "The Race of His Life" necessarily wrought during the hour itself, but the overall construction felt admirably solid, to effectively resolve so uneven a big bad as Zoom.
Screen Rant
Andrew Dyce
As yet another reminder that this is no ordinary comic book story, it's Barry who failed - not The Flash. So once he learns to be careful what you wish for, it's only the hero who can get him out of it - not the super.
Syfy Wire
Trent Moore
Just when you think things are settling down, Barry shoots back in time and saves his mom, which the time stream probably isn't going to like too much.
Collider
Dave Trumbore
After watching a Season 2 finale plagued with plot holes and underdeveloped character motivations, I could never accuse The Flash of being unambitious or playing it safe.
TV Line
Matt Webb Mitovich
A fight/chase around town ensues, ending with Barry poised to off his opponent - only to realize that it's yet another time remnant.
Tell-Tale TV
Jennifer Knutson
An unsatisfying end to a unsatisfying season. At least they were consistent.
TV Fanatic
Carissa Pavlica
For a man who covets power and being the best, Zoom's objectives, seemed counter productive. Why seek ALL THE POWER only to wipe out everyone and every place where you could show it off?
New York Magazine/Vulture
Angelica Jade Bastién
I complained a lot this season about how The Flash mired itself in Legends of Tomorrow setup, rather than pushing narrative growth. But the end of this finale opens up for a whole new opportunity to do something radical.
Entertainment Weekly
Jonathon Dornbush
It looks like Zoom has every intention of pushing Barry to the edge so he's willing to murder.
The Young Folks
Allyson Johnson
The episode was clearly an episode where the heroes, both equipped with super powers and not, were supposed to shine, and they did.
Birth.Movies.Death.
Meredith Borders
The final race between Zoom and The Flash, though lacking in emotional depth, delivered visually.
AV Club
Scott Von Doviak
Some questionable choices have been made this season, regarding both tone and storytelling, but by the end of tonight's episode, I was left with the sinking feeling that The Flash I loved has changed into something else entirely.
Den of Geek
Mike Cecchini
[During the ending], Barry makes another completely baffling decision, and one that I think will ultimately be damaging to the show in the long run.
Lyles' Movie Files
Jeffrey Lyles
While it wasn't perfect, what The Flash's season finale lacked it more than made up with an epic blockbuster style conclusion crammed with all sorts of comic book goodness.
