Noel Holston Newsday Intelligent plumbing of these fundamental questions of identity and purpose has given Smallville a deeper dramatic resonance than the DC comics or the several Superman movies. Feb 12, 2020 Full Review Cory Barker AV Club Season two smartly expands the show's storytelling capabilities while staying grounded in coming-of-age high-school plots. Nov 22, 2017 Full Review William Thomas Empire Magazine Consistently good, the series finds its high point in Rosetta, an episode which showcases a cameo from Christopher Reeve. Rated: 4/5 Oct 18, 2017 Full Review Jeremy Conrad IGN Movies The show really starts hitting its stride and starts doing some cool things with Superman. Rated: 8/10 Nov 22, 2017 Full Review Sean Axmaker Seanax.com Lex gets his own supervillain: his icy industrialist father Lionel (John Glover), who makes Machiavelli look like a pushover. One last highlight: Christopher Reeve guest stars as a scientist privy to Clark's secret in "Rosetta." Nov 18, 2016 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette It's an hour of poignant moments, surprise twists and still more references to the Superman mythology.

Person 1 Season 1 was okay and 2 was even better. Not the best show ever but it's decent. Not as good as Buffy or Supernatural but still alright. Enjoyable even if it's not perfect. You can tell the writers were trying to do a good job. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/04/24 Full Review Andrius Y SI si es una temporada entretenida y dinámica pero meramente repetitiva vamos cada capitulo se basa en clark peleando con alguien que obtiene poderes de la kryptonita , se debilita , los vence ya es muy predecible y es la misma formula de la temporada 1 no es la mas bella para mi gusto aun asi eterno respeto y amor para esta temporada en general para esta serie . Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/08/24 Full Review Michael P Better than season 1 but the whole will they won't they between Clark and Lana got very tiresome Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/04/24 Full Review My name is kellen i highly highly recommend this.
