A-
From the obvious humor of the body swap, to all of the Easter eggs and callbacks that the writers threw in, there was so much to love about this episode. Go to Full Review Scott Von Doviak AV Club 12/10/2018
B+
"Elseworlds, Part I"...does give the creative team an opportunity to poke some good-natured fun at the tropes that have sustained both Arrow and The Flash for so many seasons. Go to Full Review Linda Maleh Forbes 08/22/2019
They have a lot of fun playing with Barry and Oliver's body-swap, and some of the jokes are laugh out loud funny. Go to Full Review Alex Page Pagey 05/16/2019
4/5

8.5/10
Any crossover featuring the excellent Tyler Hoechlin as Superman is a big step up though. Go to Full Review Andrew Pollard Starburst 01/04/2019
10/10
For The Flash, the presence of Jessica Parker Kennedy's Nora West-Allen has given the show a major shot in the arm following its mixed bag of a fourth season. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
