She-Hulk: Attorney at Law

As expected, Tatiana Maslany does a wonderful job, especially as she navigates the non-Hulk parts of Jen’s personal life. ... What really matters is that She-Hulk is poised to become a new MCU fan-favorite character in a show that absolutely deserves a second season.

Four episodes in, it’s a breezy, effortless watch, with refreshing low stakes.

The whole thing is enormously funny and has such confidence, style and brio that it is impossible not to love it. It is superbly paced and has a satisfying case-of-the-week story every time.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is unashamedly mundane, weird, funny, and feminine — and that’s why it is such a success.

The show's magnetic lead performance and rapid fire gags make it a joyful experience to get swept up in, with the minimal stakes being a refreshing change of pace from the apocalyptic scenarios of the big-screen outings (and indeed, our day-to-day lives). She-Hulk is just pure fun

A feather-weight workplace comedy that owes its success almost entirely to the delightful Tatiana Maslany in the title role. ... Whether in hulk or human form, this queen of green smashes it.

Laugh-out-loud funny, packed with interesting themes, and just an all-round good time, She-Hulk breaks new ground for Marvel’s TV shows — and is one of their best small-screen offerings yet.

She-Hulk’s look adds to the campy fun of this borderline silly but always entertaining chapter in the never-ending Marvel saga.

The roughly 30-minute episodes are tightly (even over-) packed, but the try-anything spirit works as a welcome solemnity antidote. ... “She-Hulk,” so far, so good.

If the rest of the season follows through on the promise of the first four episodes, with the strength of its clear and unique voice shining through, She-Hulk could prove to be exactly the sort of light divergence this franchise needs.

“She-Hulk,” in fact, is probably the most network-like series Marvel has produced. It goes for the quick laughs, embraces a cavalcade of bizarre guest stars and lets Maslany play both sides of her Priscilla Presley hairdo.

The results are mixed but mostly positive, though Attorney at Law has a harder time distinguishing itself in live action than its heroine has on the page. ... Ideally, a show billed as Marvel’s first out-and-out comedy would be notably funnier than, say, Hawkeye. But the self-aware sensibility and Maslany’s performance help both She-Hulk and the series named for her carve their own place within the large and formulaic MCU apparatus.

“She-Hulk: Attorney at Law” is a fun series with good action, decent comedy, and feminist thoughtfulness.

Jen’s She-Hulk origin story, which unspools in the first episode, gets a bit repetitive — another case of an unwitting someone not wanting the gift of superpowers — but Maslany and Ruffalo enjoy a wonderful sibling-like banter that transcends the VFX they’re often hidden under. Once Jen accepts her duality, things get much more zippy and She-Hulk transforms into “Lawyer Show!”

The flimsiness of a character called "She-Hulk" is underpinned by something surprisingly thought-provoking. But while Maslany is a solid lead, the show falls down in terms of actually being a funny legal comedy-drama.
