Moon Knight (2022)

The first episode of Moon Knight was, in general, very good. It was fast-paced ( maybe too fast-paced sometimes when you could not really follow the action and also understand the main character's feelings and emotions). The only huge problem was the CGI, which, from my perspective, was terrible- it looked cheap and rushed and really ruined some good action out there. Oscar Isaac was awesome as always and his British accent was really impressive; Ethan Hawke was okay (he did not really have much to do), and the rest of the cast was good as well. No real criticism for this one, I have to see the other episodes, because the true value of this origin story really depends on them. The music is well chosen, the cinematography is unusually good for a Marvel production and the overall quality really sold me. I'm in

Better than expected, this is not the normal marvel formula and they really gave it a suspenseful dark vibe. Would love to see this character in upcoming MCU movies

It was so good.. I'll attempt to refrain from spoiling things, but 99% of the show was so incredibly good, and a solid 9 imho, and that's coming from someone who generally doesn't care at all for the marvel franchise apart from iron man and deadpool..

But then came the last 4 minutes of the show, which was so unbelievably trash, from the "I've killed hundreds of henchmen but it was selfdefense bro, but I won't kill the leader who will surely attempt to murder millions because that would make me the same as him" dumb trope that makes no sense whatsoever, to the confusing mess with which it decided to defecate all over the show thus far.
99.9% of the show is a solid 9, the last 4 minutes is a solid 1 if not less, and feels like a slap in the face, so I'll give it a 6.5 to 7 at most.

While it could've been so great..

Moon Knight has some great elements to it. It is a total tonal shift from the rest of the MCU that makes it a unique experience to watch. But like most MCU shows, there just isn't enough here. I really liked the majority of what was here the resolution felt rushed. All in all, still one of the better MCU shows that have been released.

**Verdict:** _Great_

To tell you the story would be giving away too much of the little secrets and charms that make Moon Knight one of Marvel's and Disney+'s best new Superhero.

Oscar Issac plays Moon Knight an avatar of the Egyptian God Khonshu. His performance in this 6 episode series is so high quality that I wish the high ups would consider this man for an award of the highest caliber.

I could see Oscar Issac becoming the next big action star even bigger than Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones was/is. Oscar has a huge range and if you watch the series you will see how intense he can be from one scene to the next. Not only THST but previous movies have established him as a great villain and love interest.

Ethan Hawke as Harrow gave me a new respect for this seasoned brilliant actor. I've watched his career since it began and he absolutely floored me as Arthur Harrow.

So, I ain't giving anymore away because the little surprises and charms make this show a hell of a ride from start to finish.

Moon Knight is worth the watch. It might start slow but the build is MORE than worth it.
