Featured review
Summer School: Chapter Ten brings the story in the spotlight - overall a great episode with great direction, writing and acting.
Summer School: Chapter Ten is directed by Sheelin Choksey, the direction is overall quite good, having directed Chapter Five and Chapter Seven prior to this, the former showing the season's great and the latter showing some of the worst. Chapter Ten is great though, a huge step up. It goes back with being plot driven again after multiple of episodes that has Eclipso trying to divide the heroes and using their fears to do it, though good for character development it was too slow and hurt the season's pacing. But back to this episode, every aspect have improved. Stargirl is back to what it does great, it looks like the final episodes will be great if they keep up this. The cinematography is good, with the sets and locations plus the costumes. All the departments did a terrific job with this episode.
The episode follows the events of the previous episode with Eclipso still lurking in the shadows and slowly but surely getting into people's heads and his plan is slow but great. The episode followed him taking aim at the Whitmore/Dugans and succeeded with his plan because of how the trust between the family is broken. The storyline of this episode has Courtney is left devastated after discovering a dark secret that Pat has kept hidden from her. However, when they learn that Jennie may be able to help in their plan to stop Eclipso, they're forced to put their issues aside as they set out on a road trip to find her. Meanwhile, Beth makes a shocking discovery about The Shade.
There were so many great character interactions in this episode, the scene with Pat Dugan and Sylvester Pemberton, Luke Wilson and Joel McHale were terrific in that scene and Luke Wilson continued to bring great performances in this episode. The dialogue too was fantastic in that scene and the entire episode. We also get to see much more of Richard Swift / The Shade which is always a good thing, interesting character played fantastically by Jonathan Cake. The daughter of Alan Scott / Green Lantern, Jennie-Lynn Scott returns. There are just so many great scenes in Chapter Ten, and lots of things to love.
In my opinion, this was overall a great episode that brings the show back to what it does best. After multiple of lackluster and slow paced episodes, Chapter Ten is the opposite. The writing, acting and direction is fantastic. Every single character that appeared in the episode had something meaningful for the sake of the story and regarding character development, there were no filler which I liked.
