Just two episodes in so this isn’t a comprehensive review but I like it so far. First episode great, loved how we sorta get to look at it from Spencer’s point of view and you can feel how panicked and nervous he always is and what he deals with,I was however left yearning to see more of the Egyptian mystical powers,we only got a glimpse but the following episode gives us a better picture. It’s taking longer than I thought to build up but I wouldn’t call it slow paced, I think I’m just eager to see everything. I love how stand-alone it is and how I have to remind myself it’s a MCU which makes me even more excited to see how all this fits into the MCU(I don’t read the comics).Oscar Isaac is great and I’ve always been into Egyptian mythology and I’m excited to see Egyptian gods brought into life by marvel and hope it lives up to it’s potential. Ethan hawk as the antagonist is also perfect here and steals the show every time he’s on. Only thing I’m not too pleased about so far is it’s a spencer show all the way and we don’t get to see moon knight fully released, or the power of the gods, but then again it’s only E02 or maybe that’s how the story’s told in the books. Also, in E02 marvel tried to sneak in a few forced laughs, I’ve been saying this for a while, as good as it is to have a laugh, we need to be released from the clutches of whoever decided superhero movies and shows all need to have laughs in it. If there’s an uncontrived funny scene that’s fine, but don’t go out of your way to devise one; it’s absolutely perfect for it to be dark or serious. Humor in like deadpool for example was amazing and made sense for the character, doesn’t mean it should spill over to everything else. Apart from that, so far so good, it’s a good start and I hope it only only gets better. Edit: E05 now and it’s getting better, we get to see more of Marc, we get a huge truth bomb and more character development. We see more of the gods too and understand their intentions. More action but it’s not to a grand scale, still good though. As it stands,it’s now my second favorite MCU series after wondavision and looking forward to (if) moon knight enters the movies as well.
