Gotham - S2 • E5 Ratings & Reviews
Den of Geek
Marc Buxton
The first live action appearance of the Court and that's pretty darn cool. Now, if only the rest of the episode matched the coolness of the arrival of Batman's greatest 21st century villains, we would have reason to celebrate.
Lyles' Movie Files

I'm a huge fan of this direction even if the journey getting there will be a little bumpy.
io9.com
Rob Bricken
Gotham has lost what little remnants of sanity it had.
Nerdist
Sydney Bucksbaum
A much-needed exposition hour filled with flashbacks to the beginnings of Gotham city, but that's not to say that it wasn't action-packed in the present day...
PopMatters
Liz Medendorp
The fifth episode of Gotham's second season still fails to live up to the thrilling prospects of the first three.
Screen Rant
Robert Yaniz, Jr.
Thus far this season, the show has done a solid job of showing the cause-and-effect throughout the criminal underbelly in Gotham.
The Young Folks
Matthew Goudreau
I was disappointed in last night's episode for one specific reason. Because last season didn't exploit every future villain possible, the show returned to the tired trope of introducing another Batman villain.
Paste Magazine
Eric Walters
Luckily, Gotham did not allow its misstep {last week] to turn into a full-on slide, picking itself up quickly with a far more competent and interesting hour of television with last night's "Scarification" (though the name is supremely stupid).
New York Magazine/Vulture
Simon Abrams
"Scarification" is the first episode of Gotham's second season that is, for better and worse, a must-see.
IGN Movies
Matt Fowler
"Scarification" wasn't terrible, but it did kind of feel like a return to some of the lesser aspects of Season 1.
TV.com
MaryAnn Sleasman
"Scarification" was a marked improvement over the past couple episodes, returning Gotham to it's rightful place as the most depraved thing airing at the kid-friendly eight o' clock hour. Let's give the show a hand. Or two. It wasn't a good week for hands.
TV Equals
Mark Trammell
A definite return to form, after a vaguely off last episode.
Entertainment Weekly
Keertana Sastry
Gotham finally revealed the history behind Theo's centuries-old blood feud in Gotham City but not without totally confusing me regarding the DC Comics origin stories of the city's First Families.
AV Club
Kyle Fowle
"Scarification" is Gotham in a nutshell, an episode that's narratively scattered and consistently uninterested in moving along meaningful and engaging plotlines, and also deepening the show's ever-expanding roster of characters.
Observer
Vinnie Mancuso
Honestly, any dullness was outweighed by the scene in which Oswald gets Butch drunk then chops off his hand.
Baltimore Sun
Karmen Fox
The Galavan versus Wayne grudge is petty and boring.
TV Fanatic
Lisa Babick
Though a dark and violent episode, "Scarification" stayed consistent, for the most part, throughout the hour. It didn't have me on the edge of my seat, but it intrigued me enough to want to continue watching to see what happens next.
