Ron Underwood directed this episode of the final season of Fear TWD, his direction and visual storytelling was good. The cinematography and editing were great, with some nice transitions. The episode looks great, nothing wrong there, with some great shots and camera angles. The sound editing and musical score is fantastic.
Mo's hunt to prove PADRE's true intentions has her in over her head as she's drawn into the larger web of secrets.
"Odessa" is the third episode of the eighth and final season, it's an average episode, both good and bad at times all depending on how much you want to criticize. Episode three has more of June and actually a Kim Dickens who seems to care of her performance, it's better but far from the same quality she gave her performance in S1-3. One performance I just can't get behind is Maya Eshet as Shrike, I just find her performance to be wooden and far from terrifying. We also get to see Daniel Salazar again, seeing Ruben and Kim share scenes again made me smile but the dialogue is poorly written like most of the dialogue in this is. Good direction though and the actors make it bearable. I still find the whole plot to be quite ridiculous, PADRE is a cartoonish group and haven't improved, Shrike's flashbacks are unnecessary and worsens the pacing. Something Erik Kain of Forbes wrote was quite interesting, how Mo is 8 years old but is played by a much older actress and the funny thing is how an eighth year old is acting out of character like a twelve year old, I like the actress who plays Mo though as I think she's doing a good job with what she's getting. The walkie talkies, unrealistic amount of batteries and bullets is another thing to criticize. Yet, this was a decent episode of Fear the Walking Dead, with an ending leaving you wanting more. There's hope that they'll make PADRE into a less cartoonish group, but the ridiculous clothing will probably remain during the season. Their backstory started out interesting but fell flat.
