    It was one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life, I've never seen a script so lost in time, they tried to put together a puzzle that only created more doubts than answers, apparently everything will have to be explained next season, although it seemed that was not scheduled. I hope the screenwriters have watched "Silver Surfer" or "What If" to make a decent script.

    Loki is a very mediocre series with very bad dialouge at times and a very boring main plot so far. I do like the plot of Loki finding out what happens to him in the future and Owen Wilson is great, but that's about it.

    The first episode was really interesting and set up a lot of ideas that could be promising for the series. The second episode followed up on some of those, but started losing steam. By the third episode, the show is lost, has little mystery, and absolutely nothing happens.

    Interesting, but found myself wandering off during most of this episode. Lots and lots of exposition getting up to speed on the TVA, but not enough, I dunno, funny, I guess. Will tune in again next week to see where this is going, but it was a bit of a downer tbh

    Same old, same old. Disney just churns out the same movies/series over and over. How about something original??

    Watch two episode so far and i am trowing in the towel.
    Its to slow for my taste, and dialogue just bad at times.
    I don't like any of the characters, not even Loki.

    Keep expecting something in line with the movies, but Disney keeps pushing out this half baked goo.

    It is what it is...

    Meh. I like the TVA look, but that's about it. Episode was fine, and I was looking forward to more time in this neck.of the Marvel woods. 2 was not near as good, and 3 was garbage. Sylvie is annoying af and ruins what little interesting the plot has to offer. A plod is more like it. Too many "deep" conversations.

    Ultimately it wanted more than it could give. Despite an intriguing premise and pilot it feels like a rushed after thought. The characters feel like shadows . The plot unabashedly predictable with episodes failing at producing anything of worth. Even the cliff hangers weren't as defining as they thought they were. The set work felt abysmal.

From sylvie killing a singular unguarded vulnerable man and setting off a multiversal war is just one of the plot hole conveniences. Tom Hiddleson's poor acting do little to rescue this sinking ship. I'm very dissapointed. A lot of good ideas were discarded.… Expand

    Overrated as hell. Removes the concept of free will from Phases 1-3 making literally every action before then feel pointless because it was already planned out.

    Hiddleston and Wilson are perfect screen partners. ... And yet Loki still felt limp. The introduction of variants and timeline laws managed to be both overly knotty and explained away, and the lack of either Marvel-esque combat or quirky subtlety rendered the episode a little unambitious.

    If there are any minor quibbles – a slightly hand-wavey explanation of some time travel rules, a couple of dodgy accents, some slightly low-key action scenes – they’re easily outweighed by the performances, world-building and general confidence of this series. Right now, it’s the best Marvel Disney Plus series so far.

    Marvel’s most purely entertaining show yet, this gives depth to its central character without losing his essential flightiness, and makes him sympathetic without forgetting that bad guys are more fun.
