Main points:

  • the premise of the show came out of nowhere, Scrulls were set up as the good guys in Captain Marvel
  • the small rooms and few characters reduced the perceived gravity of the situation
  • Giah's dilemma between her father and Graviks revolution was skipped over
  • there was no 'secret' to the show, the viewers were ~~omnipotent~~ omniscient; the plot was rushed and everything that could have been an exciting reveal has been wasted
  • we learn nothing about the president, his actions make no sense

Did anybody reading this actually enjoy watching? Or at least think it was entertaining enough to make it through the whole series? Not loaded questions, I'm legitimately curious. I like most of the Marvel stuff, but it's quite obv that most things produced post Thanos is kinda meh.

I know reviews aren't everything, but this one has been panned so much that it might always be at the bottom of my to-watch list. Any fans?

The acting is phenomenal. Sam Jackson, Don Cheadle, Ben Mendelson, Olivia Coleman, Kingsly Benedair, are all excellent.

The story is shite. All the great acting in the world can't overcome that.
