What to Know

Critics Consensus

"Star City 2040" takes Arrow back to the future and stays there in a twisty adventure that avoids feeling like a wheel-spinning tangent and instead succeeds as a nifty summation of the season's themes.

"Star City 2040" doesn't pull it all off. The fact that it manages to successfully accomplish any of those things in such a stuffed hour is impressive. Go to Full Review Chancellor Agard Entertainment Weekly 03/19/2019
Overall, this was a perfectly fine episode of the show. I'm still not sure what the point of the flash-forwards is, but throwing Felicity into the mix definitely helped elevate them. Go to Full Review Laura Hurley CinemaBlend 03/19/2019
The episode did a great job of setting the stage for what could be a truly unique spinoff. Go to Full Review Michael Patterson What Culture 03/19/2019
'Star City Slayer' successfully utilised a self-contained plot to delve into some of the season's deeper stories while laying the groundwork for its future ones. Though not perfect, it was a solid attempt at tying everything together. Go to Full Review Trent Moore Syfy Wire 03/19/2019
With the endgame in sight next season, Arrow is taking some interesting turns to try and give fans a peek at how this world will look once the series officially wraps up. Few have been as revealing as this week's episode. Go to Full Review Amelia Emberwing Birth.Movies.Death. 03/19/2019
After years of mediocre flashbacks, it's so weird to have an episode separate from the main story that packs such a punch. "Star City 2040" does exactly what it says on the package. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
