3/5

It is, in fact, a slightly disappointing episode, in which every scene takes place in a gloomy bunker or drab office building... After a while you realise you are watching a very long trailer for season five.

4/5

We’re left with a deeply grim ending in the Empire Strikes Back mold, presumably setting up at least some redemption and hope alongside the bloodshed in the final eight episodes.

Season 4 perfectly sets the stage for the final season, but a last minute reveal has me worried The Boys has bitten off more than they can chew.

Episode 8 delivered all the drama, action, and shock value we hoped for.

4.5/5

An explosive, narrative-shifting season finale bolstered by terrific performances and an undercurrent of real-world tension. It’s undoubtedly the strongest episode this season.

The Boys has remained true to itself, offering the same dose of violence, sex, blood, explosions and popcorn fun as always.
