The connection between the protagonist are incredible. The Christmas event added to the show gives us a special family feeling.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This show is very good, funny, and emotional, my favorite is the scene where Kate helped Clint talk to his son, which was very touching. The way they hinted at the movie villain bit by bit is also interesting, it piqued my curiosity a lot. I can't wait to see how they develop this show. Hoping for a happy ending for everyone… Expand

I rly enjoyed the first two episodes. It is very entertaining. Good humor, fast-paced and action-packed. Hailee Steinfeld was the perfect casting choice.

This show is light and fun and perfect for the holidays. It's pretty traditional Marvel with a very lowkey kind of vibe. The action is very well done.

This series is very good.
It brings a new approach to Clint Barton that we've never seen before and introduces a very endearing new character who manages to steal the attention and affection of viewers.

Now I'm gonna talk about the good points, it has the most outstanding cast, Kate Bishop is an excellent addition to the MCU, also Clint Barton gets his best development throughout this franchise and characters like Maya, Yelena, Eleonor Bishop and you know who else give it a lot of freshness and for me that was the only reason for which I was interested in this TV show.… Expand

The set up takes a bit and I see the first 2 episodes as weaker but after this the show is truly excellent until the end with one exception where they wasted a great character. The character interaction and chemistry is what me made to love the show. Hawkeye and Kate have such a great chemistry as do Kate and Florence Pughs character. It end s not there as Maya and William Lopez work well and I also truly enjoy Jack Duquesne, the LARPers and Eleanor Bishop to name a few. The story is on a smaller more personal scale and it works well for me. Not everything needs to be about saving the world or half the universe. After a flashback to the climax of the first Avengers movie where Kate experienced Clint Barton / Hawkeye and was inspired to be a hero we switch to modern day. The events of Endgame happened and the world is seemingly normal again. Clint just wants to celebrate Christmas with his family when his past as Ronin catches up to Kate and him. With this the events start. Like I already said it takes a while before it gets really good. I was fully entertained and the humor, characters and twist work well. To be fair I must say they took a bit too much stuff into the later episodes and maybe 1 or 2 episodes more for better development and flash out events could work better. Lets go to the characters. Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton is excellent and fully delivers. Hailee Steinfeld as Kate Bishop truly surprised me in a positive way. She is excellent too and together these 2 are the bread and butter of the show. The other characters are well done too. I especially liked Tony Dalton as Jack Duquesne, Vera Farmiga as Eleanor Bishop, the very great Alaqua Cox as Maya Lopez, Zahn McClarnon even with such a small role, Florence Pughs character who is even better than expected, the LARPers and of cause the Tracksuits. However there is a huge misstep with Vincent D’Onofrio’s character. Such a disappointment and probably the weakest version of this character to date. To clarify: The actor does a great job and it is he script I blame for this disappointment. As sidenote: This can ruin the experience as others had higher expectations than me especially if you know the better versions. Sidenote 2: Remembered an old movie trope “That you have not seen this characters fate. You only assume this happened (I am vague to not spoil events). The humor works well too and there are great moments. The musical for example is so good I can see me watching this in real live and I hate those normally. The fight scenes are well done and entertaining. Bonus for the good ending. Overall I see a great show with some weaknesses. There is 10/10 material but the weaker start and some mistakes let me drop the rating to a 7/10.… Expand

An amazing view into Hawkeye's character, who had only been a support character. Explores his family, his mind, his relationship with Natasha... while also introducing new characters... and bringing back fan favorites.

What you thinkI had my doubts about Hailey Steinfeld as Kate Bishop but immediately those were put to rest in the 1st episode, her charm and quick wit match greatly with Jeremy and there are some pretty tender moments in this show as well. What you think will happen, probably doesn't end up happening by the end, it's got enough surprises to keep you guessing and keep enjoying the ride. I think Hailey is ready for the big time in the MCU, there are times here when she is even MORE cool than Hawkeye and that's not easy to do at all. Out of the 4 shows that have come since Endgame, I am ranking this #2 right behind Loki. Well done Hailey and Jeremy and all who were involved, this could definitely see a Season 2 and more in my opinion, it was entertaining and heartfelt from start to finish!… Expand

Although Hailee Steinfeld looked out of her depth acting with Jeremy and Florence and Vera its passable. Would highly recommend to MCU fans.… Expand

While, the story itself is nothing out of this world and kind of standard, the main antagonist and her secret boss are a big problem, not to Hawkeye but to us, the viewers, because there is a lack of bad consecuences because of them.
I would like to recognise that this show works the grief really well, and that's something important to underline.
The series itself feels small compared to other MCU products, and with no impact in a short-term universe development.… Expand

Hawkeye to me was always such an underrated Avenger. As hinted at in Black Widow (2021) he fought against her and won while sparing her. Took down Loki from the sky in Avengers (2012), was the only Avenger to not get brainwashed in Age ofHawkeye to me was always such an underrated Avenger. As hinted at in Black Widow (2021) he fought against her and won while sparing her. Took down Loki from the sky in Avengers (2012), was the only Avenger to not get brainwashed in Age of Ultron (2015), fought a super-powered and armoured Black Panther in Civil War (2016), take down many gangs single-handedly during the Blip, managed to outrun and kill all the Aliens chasing him alone in Endgame (2019). So I was happy that he was finally getting the solo project he deserved. The premise is "Former Avenger Clint Barton has a seemingly simple mission: get back to his family for Christmas. Possible? Maybe with the help of Kate Bishop, a 22-year-old archer with dreams of becoming a Super Hero. The two are forced to work together when a presence from Barton's past threatens to derail far more than the festive spirit". So does this show hit the target or fail to hit the mark? The main leads, Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner) and Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld) have wonderful chemistry. They are phenomenal when together on screen. The whole show feels like a buddy cop adventure for the two and it just works. Clint is the reluctant old person while Kate is the wide-eyed enthusiastic young one. Both of them go through great character developments as well. Clint starts to learn to live with the past and grows more invested in Kate's problem. Kate learns that superhero life isn't all sunshine and rainbows with her understanding the consequences and responsibilities with the role. Both have great banter together that can be quite funny but there are some heart-warming moments as well. Examples include Kate helping Clint due to him losing his hearing aids or Clint telling Kate about Natasha. Those two are not the only ones with great chemistry though. Yelena (Florence Pugh) returns since her prior appearance in Black Widow (2021). She ends up meeting Kate in the show and these two have their special dynamic that is hilarious to watch. They have a frenemy dynamic in which Yelena wants to kill Clint but Kate doesn't want that, yet they both don't hate each other. I also love the phone conversations between Clint and his wife Laura (Linda Cardellini) as it is very lovely and I do feel the love between the two. The supporting cast is great as well. Vera Farmiga plays Kate's mother Eleanor Bishop and feels like a loving mother while Tony Dalton plays the new upbeat but weird stepdad Jack Duquesne. My biggest praise goes to Alaqua Cox performance as Maya aka Echo. She is deaf and never speaks in the show but is still able to give a very badass and menacing performance but also deliver some emotive performance through facial expressions and body language alone. I'm not surprised she is getting her MCU show. Another highlight has got to be the action sequences. A memorable one is episode 3 with the awesome one v one fight, the Hawkeye bow John Wick sequence, and the amazing car chased sequence with part of the sequence being filmed like it was one take that was quite impressive. There is also a great all-out rooftop fight in episode 4 and an amazing episode 6 action sequence that is an absolute blast to watch. In terms of set design, the Christmas setting livens it up and makes the screen pop out more. The music score is also fine for the most part but the use of Christmas music is utilised well. One problem that Marvel live-action shows had so far is that it starts strong but ends weak. Thankfully, this is not the case in Hawkeye as its final episode is wonderful and is a great ending to the show.

However, the first two episodes are quite slow. It is mostly spent on building up Kate's character and setting up the mysteries that this show will revolve around. The thing is that it takes a long time for it to build this up and there isn't much excitement happening. Clint is barely involved in the first two episodes and doesn't even properly become involved in the plot until the end of episode 2. This causes the show to feel like the Kate Bishop show rather than about Clint. It also doesn't help that the action scenes in the first two episodes are bad with it being overly edited with quick cuts. There is also an ongoing mystery about the stepdad, Jack, that is so uninteresting and predictable to the point that I was wishing they go back to Clint. Thankfully, there is a mystery concerning who the big boss is that is very interesting. Additionally, the other issues such as action and it feeling like the Kate show is fixed in episode 3 onwards.

Overall, Hawkeye might be one of the best Marvel shows so far. It feels more consistent and doesn't dip in quality. Each episode of the show feels like it is getting better and better which made for a more pleasant viewing experience. Unfortunately, it feels like people are sleeping on this show just because it is about Hawkeye. I think this is a great show that hits the target and people should give this one a shot.… Expand

Para ser honesto, las partes de investigación/misterio/intriga me gustan mucho más que las de acción, las coreografías podrían estar bastante mejor, en toda la serie, porque por lo menos la acción, los últimos dos episodios se salva, pero las coreografías de combate mantienen el listón muy bajo. Me falta más arco también por lo general.
Kate Bishop como personaje es un SÍ, qué carisma, qué gracia, qué maravilla. Por el lado contrario, Maya, Echo, se me cayó algo como personaje, no me han molado demasiado sus intervenciones.
La banda sonora bien elegida, bien el humor, no se hace demasiado pesado como otras veces y tiene buenos momentos cómicos.
La calidad es totalmente cinematográfica, una total gozada, la verdad.

· Cosas buenas: Hailee como Bishop, qué maravilla. La relación entre Clint y Kate. La forma en que cuentan todo, poco a poco pero yendo al grano, la acción que va mejorando cara al final, y cómo no, la ambientación.
· Cosas malas: Tiene momentos demasiado intensos para mí, y luego situaciones que le dan más bola de la necesaria, que se podrían haber resuelto más rápido y dedicarle el tiempo a otras. Por último, el villano tarda algo en aparecer, pero bueno, se come la pantalla.
· Conclusión: Una buena serie de acción/comedia con toques de navidad, de estas que puedes quedar todos los años por estas fechas y hacerte una maratón rapidita.… Expand

I would argue that Hawkeye successfully executed what it set out to do much better than almost all of the other Disney+ shows we've seen thus far. It's focused and tight with great pace and little filler throughout. A much more grounded and small scale outing for the MCU, allowing for a heaver focus on compelling character development and emotional weight. Also, Hailee Steinfeld and Florence Pugh are two of the best things to happen to the MCU in quite a while.… Expand
