What to Know

Critics Consensus

Arrow aspires to classic tragedy in a mournful episode that gives Black Canary a proper eulogy, although some viewers may find that the heartbreak was unearned.

No matter how much Arrow tells me about Laurel's influence on Oliver, it's never truly been shown. Go to Full Review Jonathon Dornbush Entertainment Weekly 07/30/2018
Credit where credit's due - Paul Blackthorne has already had to sell us on Quentin's grief over losing a daughter, but here he manages to find new, unique depths of touching despair. Go to Full Review Alasdair Wilkins AV Club 07/27/2018

The Arrow mythos is impossibly convoluted... "Canary Cry" is clever then in taking all those loose ends and complications and just letting them marinate for an hour. Go to Full Review Sydney Bucksbaum Nerdist 08/06/2018
I mean, if you had dry eyes... I'm pretty sure you don't have a soul. Once again, Blackthorne deserves all the awards. Go to Full Review Erik Kain Forbes 08/03/2018
Killing off the Black Canary was, for many of us, a mistake... And yet, in "Canary Cry" I couldn't help feeling moved by her passing and by Team Arrow's reaction to her death. Paul Blackthorne's performance was particularly powerful and heartbreaking. Go to Full Review Matt Webb Mitovich TV Line 08/02/2018
