#REALGUITAR 3 REVIEW ZIP#

These are touching, smartly-handled moments that feel beautiful and unique in a superhero show.Д«ut then we zip back to lighter material, from family bickering over breakfast to the immortal Klaus (Robert Sheehan) practicing dying over and over again. This season, it takes the time to address Vanya's choice to transition into Viktor (played by Elliot Page), including sensitive conversations between Viktor and his siblings. Usually, The Umbrella Academy carefully balances the goofier superhero mishaps with a concern for exploring important issues. Luther (Tom Hopper) and Viktor (Elliot Page). Min), no longer a ghost, also has more to work with, reimagined as the most spiteful member of the Sparrows. Other highlights include a touch of character growth for Luther Hargreeves (Tom Hopper), who levels up from being the reliable comic relief to actually influencing the Umbrellas' plans to save the universe - a mysterious, matter destroying ball of orange energy adds another spanner to the works.

The hallucination-inducing spit of one of these superheroes leads to possibly the best musical sequence in the entire series. Instead, they've been replaced by the superior Sparrow Academy, a team of snarky, aggressive and functional siblings who don't appreciate having rivals. The season begins with the adoptive siblings discovering the timeline has changed since they returned from an unintentional trip to the past and The Umbrella Academy no longer exists. The Hargreeves siblings, aka the superpowered members of The Umbrella Academy, are once again concerned with preventing the apocalypse (this is the third time they've had to save the world). Meet (three members of) The Sparrow Academy. The sense of fun and the polished visuals help make The Umbrella Academy a more than above-average superhero show. It drops in just a dash of gore - nothing like what you see in The Boys, but these moments are still surprisingly bloody - as well as entertaining music video-esque needle drops set to Backstreet Boys or covers of Billie Eilish. While season 3 is more of a mixed bag, it still provides the nutty superhero antics that make The Umbrella Academy a joy.

Even though The Umbrella Academy, focused on a family of superheroes with unconventional powers, didn't find its stride until season 2, it's now come into its own as a vibrant, self-aware time travel blast.
