What BollyAI Thinks

Released September 9, 2022, Season 5 earned 98 percent on Rotten Tomatoes from 48 critics as the Silver storyline reached its intended resolution. The season reunited Johnny and Daniel in full partnership against Silver and delivered action sequences that paid off years of training montages. The emotional register, earnest and melodramatic yet unashamed of its feelings, plays as the engine of the show's peculiar power. The IMDb average of 8.56 across the season reflects a viewer base that agreed.
