My son (12 years old, has seen every MCU movie and tv show) and I (grew up on Marvel Comics in the 1980's and 90's) watched Episode 1 together and were highly entertained. The animation has elements of classic comics and is unfussy, with beautiful saturation. It had the impact of 3D, though the look was reminiscent of comic book panels or movie storyboards. And the action was honestly incredible. Much of the story was like a dance, with elaborately choreographed fight scenes, dazzling knock-outs, and soaring moves. (In fact, the dance metaphor is repeatedly referenced in the dialogue) Contrary to many reviewers, we were not bothered by the pace, as the narrative toggled between those quick-pulsed fight scenes and much slower paced exposition. I agree the lip syncing was off in places, but honestly, is that how we have come to judge cartoons these days? Because TBH, that issue is pervasive in huge swaths of animation. My highest critique is that the story was a tad cliche and the handling of the gender/misogyny angle seemed superficial and facile for 2021, but of course the story is set during WWII, so perhaps that was a calculated approach. Anyway, good fun. Any review below 5 stars is disingenuous and cynical. People who want a thoughtful review deserve better.
