Really great episode.I'm gonna give it a 10.First for either Flash or Arrow this season.Maybe a 9.5 would've been more accurate,but I'll round it off to ten.
First off,the usual weakness in a team-up (as evidenced by the Flash side of the two parter) is the villain being just a means to an end.But Captain Boomerang really brought it.I don't know that he had more screentime than Prism,but he made a bigger impression.
I'm glad that Lyla lived.I kinda felt for her the way I felt for Digg last year.Like she could die at any time.I understand life is rough in Starling,but lets not have anymore deaths for a while-please?
The flashbacks were nothing special (as usual) but they tied into the story proper better than they have most of this season.I don't like this implication that Waller was responsible for Ollie being ruthless.I prefer to think he learned a "kill or be killed" mentality on the island,not that he was taught to torture/assassinate by Waller.
The Flash crew geeking around the Arrow Cave was fun.Seeing Arsenal with Flash and Arrow was great.He's kinda the odd man out all the time.
The scene where Lance sees Barry again was funny.
Digg without a mask again.This is getting ridiculous.Ollie/Flash needs a voice changer- heck Flash needs to vibrate his face (behind a mask,mind you) to make it "plausible" to some that he doesn't get recognized,but Digg just keeps walking into crime scenes without a care.It looked all the more stupid tonight,as he was surrounded by THREE costumed heroes!
The bomb diffusing resolution was both exciting and clever.
I really liked seeing Flash and Arrow making some connection over their differing ways.I was afraid it would be taking a step back from last ep,but it came off well.I also loved the Rocky 3 style ending. "ding,ding"

So,yeah,I'm very happy with both crossover eps,I think this one was perhaps a bit better,but overall,well done.
