Science/Fiction

This episode captured all what Loki the TV series stands for - redemption arc, friendship, time and its relationship with and impact on us, and finally, the inherent complexities of existing and wanting a purpose.

Tom Hiddleston was on another level in this episode, and deserves some acting nominations.

The stage for the finale is set beautifully. Can't wait for the next week on how they tie all the plot lines together. This also sets up the next phase of Marvel films wonderfully. I, for one, am super excited to see if and how Loki returns to the movie.

10/10 episode. Hyped for next week, let's go!

I love this show. Definitely the best MCU series and it never loses its quality. CGI, theme musics, script, directing, acting... they are all amazing and Tom Hiddleston carry the MARVEL cinematic universe. The only thing I can say for this episode is that it has the atmosphere of Infinity War. The final episode will be Endgame and Loki will most likely be God of Stories or Loki who remains. This is extremely exciting because this character is definitely wasted in terms of power. Lastly He's not alone anymore, he experienced true loss, time and time again. Now he knows that caring for someone else is not weakness, it's a strength, and that's when he becomes truly powerful. BEST CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT.

Where to start with this episode incredible from start to finish. I haven't felt this sense of fearful and uneasiness high stakes since that of infinity war and endgame. Loki has done nothing but intrigued me from the first episode till now. This episode just proves how wrong you can be about the necessarity of a series about loki.

The story for this episode is emotional, frustrating and physiologically moving. My first thoughts of loki season 2 were "does there need to be a season 2" but after finishing this episode I am exhilarated for the season finale and quite honesty it can't come soon enough.

The direction this whole series has taken has been nothing but amazing from episode 1 of the first season to this episode, the character they have created from nothing more then a villainous side actor to the main hero of his own story.

My honest review of why I gave this episode a 10 is nothing more then nowadays It can be difficult to feel excitement or intrigue for a series as most people say "quantity over quality" but for loki it is different and I hope I can say that it was nothing more then incredible come episode 6 (the season finale)

Thank you for taking the time to read my review hopefully see you in the season finale...

"Loki" Episode 5 of Season 2 is a perfect 10 out of 10, and if I could, I'd go as far as 20! This episode is a masterpiece of scriptwriting and storytelling. It expertly weaves together elements of time travel and multiverse theory, leaving us with a thrilling narrative that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats.

One of the most captivating aspects of this episode is the clever nod to "Back to the Future." The way the show integrates these references into its storyline is nothing short of sutil and brilliant.

The suspense in this episode is palpable, and it's impossible to look away. It's a rollercoaster of emotions as we witness the characters grapple with their destinies and the implications of their actions. The character development in this episode is top-notch, making us feel more connected to the characters than ever before.

Tom Hiddleston's portrayal of Loki is, as always, exceptional. He has truly made the character his own and brought a depth and complexity to Loki that fans adore. It's safe to say that Loki is not only the standout character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he's also the driving force behind this incredible series.

In conclusion, "Loki" is a true gem in the Marvel universe. It combines outstanding scriptwriting, nostalgic references, suspenseful storytelling, and exceptional character development. If you're a Marvel fan, this episode is a must-watch, and it cements "Loki" as one of the best series in the entire Marvel franchise.

I loved this episode most of all so far. Because for once we actually got an episode that was more character driven, by Loki who the Loki series is about( or at least should be). I think my biggest problem with the whole Loki series I general was that really. I didn't mind when they brought in sylvie because she is a Loki, but I had quite the issue with Loki's whole story having to be set aside in order to prop up Kang as the next big bad. This season didn't complicate the whole Multiverse/time travel thing too much so even if you don't like sci-fi timey wimey stuff you'll get it. We actually got to see how people in these timelines live and how scared and shocked they were to see their reality disappear. Honestly what a great episode 👏 and Tom Hiddleston deserves his Emmy for his performance as Loki. He's always brought life to Loki , but in this episode in particular he was flexing his acting muscles like crazy. The rest of this cast including Ke Huy Quan, Owen Wilson, Wumni Mosaku, Sophia di Martino and Eugene Cordero were incredible as per usual. Not to mention Loki season 1 and 2 have been consistently visually appealing and cinematic. Moreover the score is always on point thanks to the genuis of Natelie Holt. You can tell a lot of effort was put in this project and that makes me happy overall. Can't wait for the finale.
