Review: Smallville

by Toby Barrett

Clark, the adopted son of Martha and Jonathan Kent, is blessed with supernatural powers. He hides his powers from everyone and makes it his duty to protect teenagers from evil forces.

An interpretation of the Superman story features young Clark Kent coming to grips with his emerging superpowers. In the 10th and final season Clark continues his romance with Lois and faces his destiny as he overcomes his final trials, forging the iconic identity by which he will be known for all time.

Yes I know “Another superman show/film” but this has to be by far the best ever origin story of the famous hero. This show tells the story of teenage to adult Clark Kent.

“Is Smallville worth watching?” you ask, YES! It is a great show, yes it changes quite a bit over the years, so in some ways it is like several different shows but every season is worth watching.
