I was excited for this series. The cast is great. The writing is HORRIBLE!!!
As a black American, the amount of forced "black" dialogue in the first scene along was absolutely cringe. When black people get the chance to tell stories, we don't have to ghetto it up for a larger audience. Black people are not a monolith but this show would have you believe that we all say words like lit and catch a case or say Miss Thang Thang...Modern shows like Power and Empire and Bel-Air and Atlanta, The Chi and even Grown-Ish allow for black folk to be all types of black in natural ways. This is high-end coonery. I mean, rose water? Coconut oil? Stop.
I understand wanting to make a show that showcases black excellence but this is an unnatural attempt at pandering and pushing a weird narrative to white audiences. We don't need to prove things to people. Let's make realistic shows unapologetically...

Hit-Monkey is funny, violent, and pretty comic accurate. The casting choices were really good. If you've been waiting for Deadpool like behavior from Marvel, this is for you! We would love a 2nd season but if this is how Marvel TV ends their era, they went out with a bang!
This is a spoiler free review. This was an ambitious film. The film was long. The cast was extensive. But they nailed it! The individual performances were excellent and the chemistry amongst characters was wonderful. The cinematography was stunning. This movie was well-rounded. It had heart. It made me mad. It made me sad. It made me laugh. I lost track of time and that was a great thing. For Marvel lovers, this movie really delivers. It ties into everything we know and unlocks so much more of the universe we know and love. I am stoked to see where these characters end up as far as the rest of the MCU goes. Feige knows! Chloe did her thing!
