Is someone else sick of watching the supe save the day? Look no further! This is far from your typical superhero movie. As a matter of fact, its the complete opposite of what MCU fans are used to watching. The series sets the tone from episode one, where an innocent civilian gets killed by one of the supes, an the corporation behind the supes tries to settle it by offering money as a compensation. Soon after that the group of unlikely characters (one od them being the bf of the death civilian) get together with one mission, to take revenge and strike the supes back. The show just keeps getting crazier and crazier. Three seasons in and it somehow still manages to push up the boundaries of whats possible. Do not be discouraged by the fact that this is a superhero tv show, its probably the complete opposite of what you expect it to be. 10/10.

I was excited for the cinematic wild ride that was supposed to be the Multiverse of Madness, but ended bored out of my mind even though the movie was visually stunning. All style, no substance. Unless you are a Marvel fan that knows all the comics, the visuals will be interesting the first 15-20 minutes, but soon you will become tired of them since you simply will not be able to pay attention to the underlying story behind the madness. Someone that watches all of the Marvel movies told me that its closely connected to WandaVision. If you have not seen that I do not recommend going to the movie theater to watch this movie. It will only give you a headache.

What was good about this season: Pretty much the same things that the fans love about the show (from previous seasons): the chemistry between the actors and actresses, the nostalgic setting, the beloved characters.

What was wrong with this season: Even though a lot of people seemed to love the double narrative in this season (cold war plot & Vecna plot) I think those two narratives did not mash very well. Until the very end it felt like I was watching two separate tv shows with the hope of them merging at some point during the season. I think what would have been better is if they did a whole season on the cold war sub plot instead. Another thing that was pointed out by many critics is the fact that the main characters seem to be invincible. That safety blanket takes a bit from the tension and simply the stakes are not high when we do not expect or we do not feel that the main characters could be killed.

Overall an entertaining season for all the reasons we loved all of the previous seasons of the show. 7/10.
