Chancellor Agard Entertainment Weekly 03/06/2019
Part of me is surprised that the "King Shark vs. Gorilla Grodd" actually worked. This definitely feels like an episode that was born out of "wouldn't it be cool if King Shark fought Gorilla Grodd" before the actual story was formed. Go to Full Review Scott Von Doviak AV Club 03/06/2019

The hour ends with another plan for stopping Cicada. This time it's Barry coming up with the idea to ask Cicada if he'd like to be cured. I did not throw anything at my TV, but only because I still need it. Go to Full Review Jessie Robertson Flickering Myth 04/24/2019

The fight was everything, Joe returning only sets the show back on course, and best of all -- no Cicada!!! Go to Full Review Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files 04/17/2019

King Shark vs. Gorilla Grodd was nutty in a good way and did some solid building on the overall season arc with Cicada. Go to Full Review Michael Patterson What Culture 03/06/2019
Not only was the individual presentation of both monsters far superior to some of their recent appearances, the fight scenes were very well-executed and, for the most part, were incredibly convincing. Go to Full Review Lacy Baugher Tell-Tale TV 03/06/2019
3.5/5
It's really hard to knock an episode that gives us a giant shark and a giant gorilla facing off for the fate of Central City's human population. Stuff like this is basically what comic book shows were made to do. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
