Probably best episode all season but still very slow - minor spoilers
nickzapapp14 April 2023
I didn't mind this episode and thought the way it was crafted was good with how the photos were taken. Hate it when they talk about a fake event that we only just learn about for so long though - i.e. Red going on about that photo years back - just seemed silly but apart from that all good. Sick of the boys club though - no girls on the show anymore (never was). Blindspot did much better with the gender balance. As a guy I don't want to watch a show where just guys talk. Fight scene was epic in terms of moves but it was a big shame that the doubles were so obvious and for several shots. I think we had four different shots of Ressler's double who appears to have very black/dark eyes for about 9 seconds. Looking forward to the tension building with Wujing and for his attack on the task force facility.

Deadly Attacks

Warning: Spoilers
This Episode begins with The Freelancer, he is planting a chemical bomb into the ferry. Red sees that The Freelancer striked again. The bomb exploded on the ferry. Ressler celebrates that he is one year sober. The Freelancer has planned another attack in the city. Ressler, Dembe and Siya arrived at the place where The Freelancer will cause his attack. The Freelancer planted the bomb. The Freelancer fights with Ressler and Dembe. Dembe knocked The Freelancer to the ground, he is unconscious. Dembe deactivated the bomb. The Freelancer escaped. Nice Episode of The Blacklist Season 10, The Freelancer escaped. The Troll Farmer, an ex-Blacklister is the newest target!

A Lot of Standing Around
Hitchcoc17 February 2024
I have to agree that this one is really talky. An old friend, The Freelancer, has been recruited by Wu. He is known as one who will kill a hundred people if the desired victim is one of them. There are scenes in the street where people mill around and do nothing. There are discussions that go on and it seems that nothing will happen. I was disappointed in our guys when after overcoming the Freelancer, they do nothing to hold him in place. Ressler continues to try to overcome his addictions. We also have the tech genius back again. I thought at first I could deal with him in some way, but it is obvious he has to many issues. He is much more interesting than Malek.

You can even see the double!!

Season 10 is really bad! I used to love this series. It used to be so intriguing and entertainjng. Howevee I found season 10 is sooo boring. The story is still quite okay, but the cast is unbelievable. It seems they cut the budget tremendously. The new cast, Siya is so boring and lack of expression. The extra do nothing but standing. I found one woman reporter just holding the mic do nothing and no camera in front of her.

However I'd like to point this episode mainly. I dont usually write a review, but the flaws are sooooo ridiculous. I can't stand not giving review. In the scene where Donald fight with the freelancer, I could see Donald's double very clearly. It was so obvious he is not Donald. OMG Bad bad bad bad. Too bad I cannot unfinish what I have started 😅. So I will torture myself till last episode Of this season.

The stunt was so visible that made it funny
Valinasab13 February 2024
I found watching this episode to be a tedious experience due to its poor editing, lack of attention to detail, predictable storyline, and sluggish pacing. The editing felt choppy and disjointed, making it difficult to follow the narrative flow. Furthermore, the lack of attention to details was glaring, with inconsistencies and continuity errors throughout. The storyline was painfully predictable, offering little in the way of surprises or originality. And to top it off, the pacing was incredibly slow, dragging out scenes unnecessarily and failing to maintain viewer interest. Overall, I wouldn't recommend wasting your time on this lackluster production.
