Product: Smallville: The Complete Ninth Season (2009)
Rating: 1.0
Most disappointing season yet
Season 9 is most disappointing and totally loses the plot. It should never have happened. It is clear that the script writers have run out of ideas.Daniel James Callum Blue (Zod) is a truly bad actor and the worst actor they could have chosen to portray "Zod". He does by no means remotely justify or fit into the initial portrayed character of "Zod". To make it simple he is no "Zod" and besides the demise of the story line, is one of the major contributors to the disaster of this season.The Kryptonians are supposed to be a highly evolve race. They are beyond light sabers and laser guns, yet in season 9 they are portrayed as ordinary people no different from us. The soldiers are pretty much normal GI's wearing ordinary uniforms that are pretty much on par with "freedom" fighters in Africa. The US marines are a whole lot more sophisticated and better equipped than these Kryptonians. It is a sad state of affairs.If you want fond memories of the Smallville saga, don't pursue any further seasons. Season 10 is equally disappointing.
