When Marvel announced a couple of years ago all the productions that were going to come to Disney+, some names did not seem to have the same strength as that of others already known in the North American ecosystem. Eternals, Shang-Chi and even moon knight sounded foreign to many movie fans but it has been proven that drop by drop, film by film and chapter by chapter, his epic and adventures manage to settle within the imaginary collective.
an unknown character
And Moon Knight is one of those names that a few months ago they seemed very far away to everything we knew about the famous UCM but now, thanks to the work and grace of two extraordinary trailers, they have managed to gain a run and position themselves as one of the fictions that can arouse the most faith in fans. Not in vain, at the head of the cast we have two monsters like Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke, and we have the promise that everything that tells us It will not necessarily be connected to the other movies and series. According to its producer, we are facing a hero who, for the moment, operates far from other well-known names, so his role remains to be seen if he will gain more prominence in phase 4.
With all of the above on the table, The first reviews have started to arrive to the consignment of chapters (four out of six) that Disney+ has let a few media see, and it seems that the work done by Marvel is one of those that make an era. So much so as to consider that we could be facing the best series of all those that have premiered on the streaming platform since the great one arrived a little over a year ago. WandaVision.
The best Marvel series?
From Rotten Tomatoes, a page especially followed for these ratings of movies and series, David Opie affirms that "I have seen the first 4 episodes of #MoonKnight and I am as divided by this series as Marc himself [Spector]. When it works, it's a wildly original entry into the MCU with flashes of grandeur, but some of the sillier aspects detract from the horror. Die-hard comic book fans may not enjoy it as much as newcomers.”
Similarly, since University Film Review They have no hesitation in stating thatMoon Knight is fantastic and Oscar Isaac is exceptional in the role of the tormented Marc Spector. This is the Marvel series everyone is going to be talking about. Completely crazy and that tells us a disturbing adventure. Marvel Studios has knocked it out of the park with their best show yet."
From the Twitter account of What's on Disney+, also surrender to the new production that opens on March 30, remembering that «I have seen the first 4 episodes of Marvel Moon Knight and It's unlike anything we've seen in the MCU.: Oscar Isaac is fantastic! I can't wait to see the rest of the series. This is not the typical origin of a superhero. He is excellent!" Lastly, Tom Power of techradar, has taken advantage of a tweet to remember that, after watching four episodes, Moon Knight is "unlike anything you've seen before from Marvel. I would go so far as to say, and I do not say this lightly, that It's the best MCU tv show".
