    Hailee Steinfeld was horribly miscast as Hawkeye. Take a look at Scarlett Johansson and Brie Larson, and how hard they trained for their MCU roles. Hailee looks like she's doing cheerleading in her fight scenes. It's embarrassing. Horrible director too. He needs to learn choreography. A rushed show with low effort

    The first 3 episodes are REALLY bad.

    The characters actions make no sense, and the script is laughable.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My family watched the first episode, but my wife and I did not want to continue. We acquiesced to my son who wanted to watch the second episode. It was worst than the first in my opinion. Even my son said it was "ok" with a shrug. In a nutshell, the show is uninteresting, insipid, and unexciting. The show isn't about Hawkeye, it's about Kate Bishop. They're just using the Hawkeye name to get people watching like a bait and switch. Even if it is about Kate Bishop, she is an annoying character with a head-scratching relationship with her mom. The plot is awful. I cite these examples: the dog suddenly biting the man's leg just to introduce the dog; Kate being able to fit the Ronin suit without looking oversized; destroying the bell tower and top of the building with no consequence, jail anyone?; her wearing a waiter's suit to blend in like a waiter, and being complemented for it. It's a waiter's outfit for goodness sake, not a designer outfit! In the second episode, that whole LARPing thing is unbelievably inane; a firefighter stealing the costume is damn idiotic; the firefighter is idiotic; the fencing dual was so she could prove the boyfriend lied! Childish! The overall treatment of the Marvel universe as some meta joke is a lame direction. Everything is a joke, so nothing really matters. I was going to give it a 3 for production value and a hint of Clint's trauma like his hearing, but after re-reading my own review, I give it a 2 because the rest of it is garbage. I like both Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld. She is good in Transformers Bumblebee, and Jeremy Renner is a good actor and person overall. He put his daughter first before his acting. In the end, the writing here is just the lowest moronic stuff.… Expand

    Boring childish action scenes we're not creative or interesting story iscfull of political propaganda no real character development it would be more honest to call the show the new Hawkeye so at least we can know what experience instead of just trying to make an actual Hawkeye story cause his character never really got a solo movie. Over all waste of time.

    Another bland generic attempt by marvel at """""entertainment"""""". The sandwich I had for lunch 3 years ago is more memorable than this garbage.

    I like Jeremy Renner. I do. If it weren't for him, Hawkeye would have been just plain silly in the Avengers, imo. He brought something true to that character. But this is garbage. I hates Robin, and I'm no fan of whatever this side chick is.

    Caveat: I did not make it past the first episode.

    However, that first impression was SO DULL and the characters had zero motivation that I was not inclined to even bother continuing. Does it get better? The first episode gave me no reason to care.

    It's not awful like the opener of Iron Fist, but it wandered around pretty badly.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's pretty bad. The first episode it okay, but the second just drops like a giant rock. There is what seems like 20 min. segment where Clint goes to a LARPer battle to retrieve his Ronin getup. It's one of the cringiest, most pointless parts of a TV show I've seen in a long while. We get no background really on Kate, other than she's rich, saw Hawkeye help save NYC and is good at absolutely everything. The Tracksuit mafia scenes are way below Keystone Cops level of buffoonishness.… Expand

    The Kate Bishop Show might be the worst thing Marvel has ever released. This show was branded & advertised to fans as a series about Hawkeye (one of the most underdeveloped characters in the MCU), but in reality it is a series about Kate Bishop that occasionally features Hawkeye.

Rather than an action series about one of our favorite Avengers, we got a family drama occasionally featuring said Avenger along with Black Widow’s sister. Nobody asked for this!… Expand

    There’s a lot to like here, most of it coming from Steinfeld. It feels like a superhero movie from the 2010s, all snarky quips and bombastic fight scenes – though it is strange neither Hawkeye nor Kate use their famed arrow skills in such action sequences. But the storyline is complicated, and you have to deeply care for Marvel lore to be invested in the mystery of Ronin’s suit and his missing sword (told you to swot up).

    Overall Hawkeye’s not bad, or boring, it’s just… fine. It’s totally fine. Some people will like it, others might not, but it’s hard to see it arousing a great deal of passion either way.
