    Excellent first episode, writing, editing, acting, just brilliant,... however I'm very afraid this won't hold up. This is Disney, corporate evil incarnate.

    Edit: As expected. It went downhill fast. Ep 3 combines not one but two very cheap, badly filmed and clichéd Jason Bourne action scenes, with the most disappointing depiction of Egyptian Gods . It starts with "I can't believe we are

It starts with "I can't believe we are inside Giza"...to...Osiris looks like Sean from accounting! The Steven/Marc schizophrenic acting has become irritating to say the least. Meanwhile Ethan Hawke, cashing in paycheck....

    Feige and Hollywood crapping all over their kidults face! And they want more!

    PS: I'm watcing from pirate streaming of course!

    The premier episode was a perplexing and sometimes nonsensical trip that leaves you wanting more despite rarely connecting with the danger of the plot. Very excited for more.

    I've gotta say this is one of the first MCU shows I actually feel dissapointed by. Before Moon Knight aired there was all this hype that it was gonna be genre-bending, trippy, experimental etc.

    Never has this been less accurate, the show is a big marvel convoluted mess. It's a shame that Ethan Hawke and Oscar Isaac were wasted in a show just so mediocre. By the time the last episode hit I

    Never has this been less accurate, the show is a big marvel convoluted mess. It's a shame that Ethan Hawke and Oscar Isaac were wasted in a show just so mediocre. By the time the last episode hit I had just mentally checked out. I didn't care about the stakes, there was another boring marvel CGI fight and lots of generic SUPERHERO! moments. It basically has the same trajectory as WandaVision (starts off interesting but then rapidly descends into easy marvel territory). However, in comparison, the highs of WandaVision absolutely decimate the best of Moon Knight.

    Well worth skipping, if you wanna watch a trippy, interesting and novel superhero show then Legion is also right there on Disney+. It's everything Moon Knight claimed to be (and I'm rewatching it again now too)

    Moon Knight is the first sub-par Marvel Series on Disney+ . The story is full of plot holes and the characters, outside of Oscar Isaac, fail to draw us in enough to care about them. This series started off well (as seen in other reviews written after the first episode), but it does not deliver in the end.

    MoonKnight is too epic although that works against him sometimes it manages to be too enjoyable for me but it is already everyone's taste

    I wish it had been a slower build up to all the supernatural stuff . They wasted Ethan Hawke on a fairly unmemorable role .

    Very disappointing early episodes had me slightly intrigued but yhe wheels fell off.The costume for Mr Knight is trash and the David character is extremely irrating to hear his voice though I think Oscar does well I think the script hurt him. Too much placed on the female substitute hero to take away from tie character.

    Starts out very promising but fumbles right at the very end. Oscar Issac gives one of the best performances in the MCU though.

    The opening chapters are thrilling fun as Steven's hysteria mounts upon waking from blackouts and mayhem. When the fantastical intrigue shifts from London to Egypt, the exhilarating actions scenes have a rollickingly slapstick Indiana Jones-like quality. [11 - 24 Apr 2022, p.7]

    Moon Knight rides on Oscar Isaac’s ability to believably inhabit distinct personalities, but that might be more than enough for people to watch this six-episode MCU side story.

    "Moon Knight" is an odd show in that it gives us characters and actors we'd love to spend more time with, albeit in tauter scenarios than the one presented here. ... But as it stands, "Moon Knight" may be one of those puzzle details someone else can fill in for you in the future prior to enjoying a better adaptation of another (and somehow related) Marvel adventure.
