Storyline
Oliver Queen and his father are lost at sea when their luxury yacht sinks, apparently in a storm. His father dies, but Oliver survives for five years on an uncharted island and eventually returns home. But he wasn't alone on the island where he learned not only how to fight and survive but also of his father's corruption and unscrupulous business dealings. He returns to civilization a changed man, determined to put things right. He disguises himself with the hood of one of his mysterious island mentors, arms himself with a bow and sets about hunting down the men and women who have corrupted his city.User Reviews
OK,
just seen the first episode and I think it was amazing. I am not the
biggest fan of comics or very knowledgeable about Green Arrow in
general, so I feel I can be very objective in reviewing this show like I
would any regular one, without fan-love ideas or huge expectations. The
characters seem very believable so far, few minor doubts here and there
but nothing crucial; acting also up to part. Story is realistic,
without that fantastical loop holes that comic adaptations usually have
(was told Green Arrow was like that in comics too, so I respect the
decision to stay with that). CGI was decent, compliments to stunt
collection and fighting choreography (well done, sir, well done), and
quite good screenplay for this episode. The makers opened quite a few
questions, made room for many ways show can stream to; I can say without
a doubt, that this show is one of the surprises of this fall and I can
only hope that the whole season lives up to this great pilot.
