The Umbrella Academy season 4 review: "Like any good family reunion, most frustrations can be waved away, at least in the moment"

The Umbrella Academy.

It's the end of the road for The Umbrella Academy. The Hargreeves siblings' fourth outing on Netflix is their final one, but it's anything but a straightforward sprint to the finish. 

The new season kicks off six years after the season 3 finale, and sees the Hargreeves – mostly – fully adjusted to a life without powers. Viktor (Elliot Page) is managing a bar and breaking hearts in Nova Scotia, but the rest of the family is living in the same nondescript, unidentified US town. Now-married Diego (David Castañeda) and Lila (Ritu Arya) are a delivery driver and stay-at-home mom, respectively, Allison (Emmy Raver-Lampman) is acting in commercials, Luther (Tom Hopper) is an astronaut stripper, Klaus (Robert Sheehan) is three years sober, and Ben (Justin H. Min) is fresh out of jail after orchestrating a cryptocurrency scam. Only Five (Aidan Gallagher) is up to the same old tricks with a job at the CIA.
