"Mr. Freeze" not only introduced us to the episode's titular character and his Gotham-ized origin story, but we also finally saw some more action on the Indian Hill front thanks to the introduction of the one and only Hugo Strange. Go to Full Review Kyle Fowle AV Club 03/01/2016

"Wrath Of The Villains: Mr. Freeze" sets up a villain that's sure to be around for quite a few episodes. Where the show failed with Galavan though, there's signs that it might succeed with Mr. Freeze. Go to Full Review Vinnie Mancuso Observer 03/01/2016
Gotham is back, baby, and now everyone's favorite Dark Knight-quel comes with a side of fries. Excuse me, Fries. That's right, Mr. Freeze has arrived and he. is. TERRIFYING! Go to Full Review Kayti Burt Den of Geek 07/18/2018

With this midseason premiere, season 2 seems poised to continue its run as mostly entertaining, nonsensical TV. Go to Full Review Mark Trammell TV Equals 07/18/2018
Thankfully, those of us worrying that the show might go the deadly Schumacher/Schwarzenegger route had a load lifted off our shoulders when it became relatively clear that this version of the iconic character would not be making corny quips.

With two major members of the rogues' gallery introduced, the show wastes no time in ramping up the prominence of its villains even moreso in this second half. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
