I was really looking forward to this show as both the Falcon and the Winter Soldier didn't really get the attention that they deserved in the main movies so I wanted a more in-depth look into these two characters and how they would work together, and on that front it's rather good.

The cinematography, the effects, the writing at times, everything is pretty solid, HOWEVER, the casting for the main "villain" and the new Captain America are rather atrocious.

At no point during this series do you actually care or feel threatened by the main villain, she's just kinda there to push the story forward and not much else.

It's Disney so you know that they have the money to hire someone more experienced and actually "villainy" looking, cause again, the series falls flat on its face almost exclusively because of this and if there's to ever be a second season, they need to find a proper villain, cause this one is terrible.

Then onto the new Captain America...same thing all over, there's nothing special about him, and doesn't hold a candle to what CA is supposed to be, 0 charisma, 0 likeability and the entire show he is kinda sidelined, so he's rather irrelevant, which makes you wonder why they ever brought him back to begin with.

Either way, this one is a mixed bag and rather disappointing as the problem stems from something easily avoidable, like proper casting.
