Wentworth Review
This episode of Wentworth was okay. However, I am getting sick of the super human characters. It is stupid that Drago was made out to be a crazy war criminal of sorts. That isn’t realistic in the least. The boxing has been very lame this season too. Rita’s character isn’t fun or interesting either. Marie is a shadow of the older character. This season hasn’t been a total bust, but it hasn’t been great either. This episode scores a 6.5 out of 10.
