(Disney+) Secret Invasion

[FrighT MasteR]

After the horrible Ms Marvel and the ridiculous She-Hulk, we finally have a new Marvel show that looks good

Show started out good, but it didn't take very long to fizzle out. There were some decent action parts here and there, but they were too few and far between, so we're left with mostly a mediocore story with a lot of holes in it. Even the finale was a bit disappointing. 6/10 from me.

Watched a couple... never went back. Getting too particular in my old age.

Don't blame ya, been feeling the same, our time is sacred

Stuck through it to the end. My take, and this is coming from someone who is very much an MCU fan: this series sucked. Maybe two decent episodes, Ben Mendelsohn was good as always, and the guy playing the villain (his name escapes me at the moment) had one really great, intense scene with Sam Jackson in the final episode, but the writing and plotting overall was sub-par. And the less said about the woeful CGI in the final super-skrull battle, the better. I suppose some of it could be blamed on FX artists being overbooked during the post-pandemic boom, but even so. I did like how it attempted to rewrite some MCU history (it was Talos and Fury's other Skrull allies who helped him achieve his high level of intelligence in the spy field since they arrived back in the '90s circa Captain Marvel) but that was the most interesting bit of canon it adds. I'd go 5/10 for the series as a whole, being overly generous.

I've only heard bad things about this, I'm honestly struggling to want to watch it.

I would just recommend skipping it, you're not missing much
