Moon Knight

I'm a huge fan of Superhero movies/shows but I really wasn't sure what to expect from this. I never heard of Moon Knight and it doesn't look like your typical superhero show. Of course I was going to give it a chance bc it's Marvel. I'm pleasantly surprised by how much I liked this. It might not be my favorite of the Marvel shows but it's still pretty good and absolutely worth watching! Oscar Isaac is such an underrated actor and does a fantastic job as the lead here. It had a little of everything: action, drama, mystery, suspense, etc. I hope that there's more than one season of this show because it absolutely deserves it!

Moon Knight is so much better than it has any right of being and that's mostly because of the incredibly underrated Oscar Isaac. He's so good in just about everything he does and is absolutely terrific in this as well. The way he makes both split personalities seem like two completely different people takes skill as an actor. He really makes you care for the character and what happens to him. Ethan Hawke was as good as always too. He never disappoints in any role. It currently has a 88% on Rotten Tomatoes and for good reason. I'm not sure if they plan on doing another season or not but based off this first season I sure hope they do.

I put on Moon Knight as I generally love Marvel comics and shows, and figured - why not. Well, I was surprised at just how good this show was. I was expecting it to be good, but it was REALLY good. The character development and choice of actors was perfect, the comedy, the Ancient Egypt history, it was jam packed full of fabulousness and I could not get enough. Moon Knight has got to be Marvel/Disney's most underrated show, and definitely its best. There is nothing bad to say about it - if you haven't watched it, then do, and I cannot wait for more seasons! I really hope they don't cancel it like so many other brilliant Marvel shows (never going to get over them cancelling The Punisher, Jessica Jones and Luke Cage). The lack of discussions on this show seems to be entirely down to the lack of marketing of which I saw none other than in the Disney app itself. It deserves more attention.

I'm completely surprised by how much I enjoyed this "superhero" show from Marvel.

The first episode dragged a bit and was somewhat confusing at times. But, it had enough to keep me watching a second episode, then a third, fourth... well you get the idea. I think what kept me interested was the fact that Moon Knight is not your typical superhero.

The basic plot is that there is an evil cult that worships an Egyptian goddess who has been imprisoned by the other Egyptian gods. Said cult is trying to free her so she can rain down her judgement on our hapless planet. Our hero, Marc, serves a different god and derives his power (and a cool suit) from that god. Needless to say, they want to stop the cult's nefarious plan, but there's a hitch. Marc is stuck in the body of a meek/mild souvenir shop employee named Steven, who doesn't want Marc taking control of his body.

LOL, as I was writing the above description, it struck me as to how inane the plot sounds; but, believe me, the writers did a great job of making it work.

I loved the whole ep, Oscar Isaac is perfect for this role. I can't really talk to much about it but the way they presented moon knight was a kids dream , super cool and true to what a hero is . I don't think I got that moved ever for a superhero introduction.
