The Umbrella Academy Season 4 is the final and shortened series of the super popular series on the Netflix platform. It furthers the show’s formula of depicting the apocalypse amid elements of fun and the superhero children of the Hargreeves family being tested by yet another end of the world scenario. This time they are placed back to a reset timeline with no powers but they get it back when new villains, Drs Gene and Jean Thibedeau portrayed by Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally respectively appear. A primary concern of the siblings is to counter those antagonists and save the kidnapped person of interest, at the same time dealing with their father Sir Reginald Hargreeves who also has less than benevolent intentions.
The reason that accelerates the pace of the series has its advantages and disadvantages. On a positive note, the narrative direction is more solid, leaving out the pointless episodes that were present in the previous seasons. Though, the fluency of the series seems comparatively faster and there is less freedom and shooting is mostly restricted to particular places, probably because of low budget. However, one cannot deny the fact that such restrictions make for a rather satisfying conclusion to the season. Cast is still one of the ToP features of the show and Elliot Page’s performance as Viktor showing both the anger and the love for Iris is one of the best in the series.
Although action-packed scenes are not many, the ones that are included are very impressive and the romance part is excellent. The collection, featuring Five and Lila in one episode, also defines a sentimental finish for the show. The finale is quite cheesy or was intended to be cheesy with its combination of comedy and serious scenes that are worked with perfect precision towards the end of the narrative that revolves around the Hargreeves siblings. Thus, it can be stated that The Umbrella Academy Season 4 does a good job of providing the show with an enveloping finale as well as it focuses on the characters’ personal development and is cohesive with the original series’ tone that attracted millions of fans across the world.
