Moon Knight (2022)
4/10
Starts interesting but declines. Is hurt by weekly release format
13 April 2022
The show starts very interesting and intriguing. However it has a lot of "filler" moments or moments where things could all be resolved then and there, but the hero is stopped from taking action due to personal reflection/introspection or something only to spring into action when the chance is gone.

Also there's the protagonists "trait" that interferes with the story when it is least convenient. And you find yourself being annoyed at the writers and the use of pretty obvious tropes to delay progression of the plot.

Because Disney releases this show on a weekly basis it becomes very frustrating really fast because you feel the writers are just wasting time that could have been spent on plot progression and you keep thinking no this isn't what I waited a week for. Go on whit this or that don't waste it on pointless "slapstick" or "fish out of water" jokes. And you find yourself spending more time checking how long the episode still has left to get to a point especially because you will have to wait a week for the story to continue.

It's still an intriguing show. But it works out certain tropes really cliché and it's delaying/episode filling could have also been done differently with more Background lore exposition for instance.
