There’s something to be said for the Arrow/The Flash spinoff’s "unapologetic comic book overtones,” says Mary McNamara. "DC's Legends of Tomorrow wears its intentions, like its future tech, on its sleeve — you're either in for the ride or you're not, no character deconstruction or cinematic analysis required.” PLUS: Legends feels too loose (http://www.newsday.com/entertainment/tv/dc-s-legends-of-tomorrow-review-supersized-and-overboiled-1.11338362) and too campy, do we really need another superhero team-up (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/comic-riffs/wp/2016/01/21/dcs-legends-of-tomorrow-did-we-ask-for-another-superheroes-team-up-more-important-did-they/)?, and it’s visually impressive but the cast lacks chemistry (http://variety.com/2016/tv/reviews/dcs-legends-of-tomorrow-review-cw-the-flash-arrow-firestorm-hawkgirl-1201675585/).

All wrong. It was the best premiere episode for a superhero show so far.

Don't like fun? Too bad. Go watch the millions of other gritty shows out there.
