Gordon Farrer The Age (Australia) Fun times ahead for Clark and the gang. Feb 13, 2020 Full Review Clare Morgan Sydney Morning Herald They've ramped up the raunch factor since I last visited but, sadly, not the entertainment factor. There's a confusing web of relationships and a hint of mystery in Honduras but this story goes nowhere. Smallville? Dullsville, more like. Feb 13, 2020 Full Review TV Guide Staff TV Guide Seeing the beginnings of the Fortress of Solitude, hearing Terence Stamp's voice and witnessing James Marsters transform from liquid to solid all over again, was a one-two-three punch of Smallville goodness. Feb 13, 2020 Full Review Filip Vukcevic IGN Movies This thing has so much potential, but it refuses to risk grabbing it. Rated: 6/10 Sep 29, 2005 Full Review Todd R. Ramlow PopMatters Smallville remains focused on the vagaries of truth. Sep 29, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Ed R The series starts to heat up! The introduction of Zod brings a daunting twist! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Michael P The story points in this season actually annoyed me... Why didn't Clarke tell Lana after his dad passed? Why is Zodd "possessing" Lex? Louise is some 20 year old and she's a Congresswoman's chief of staff? Look, I can look passed a lot and I know this is a cheaper sort of Superman show but some of the story points were a bit off with this one Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/02/24 Full Review Andrius Y La verdad es que me encanta que hayan explorado nuevos terrenos, tramas impredecibles ,alocadas e incluso mas oscuras , obscenas y atrevidas Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/08/24 Full Review My penis i In my opinion the show should've ended after season 5 because this season is so underrated, it's really up there with season 1. The show came back and had a resurgence for seasons 8 9 and 10 though and really ended off strong. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/24 Full Review Spike G Best season so far its awsome Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/02/23 Full Review Pablo Y Esta quinta temporada confirma lo que se dejaba entrever en los capítulos finales de la anterior: un evidente desgaste de la trama y un aumento exponencial en las conveniencias de guion. El mínimo de coherencia del que hacía gala la serie hasta ahora, desaparece. Aunque sus puntos fuertes siguen haciendo acto de presencia, la temporada consigue un aprobado raspado gracias a éstos, a los tejemanejes de los Luthor y compañía, y al suponer la introducción definitiva de la rivalidad entre Lex y Clark. Entretiene, pero no de igual forma. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
