After many disappointments over the course of the last months by the Marvel TV show department, it is nice to finally watch something entertaining and captivating. The story might not be particularly original, but it is well written and I found it engaging. I did not like the pilot as much, but starting from the second episode, things got exponentially better. Screenwriters managed to create an interesting build up, by keeping certain elements of the main character unrevealed until the very end. The main plot twists are definitely not that surprising, but they worked for me. Oscar Isaac's performance was amazing. He played two different characters and was able to pass smoothly from one role to the other, instantly. He gave a lot of personality to Marc and Steven. For sure one of the most peculiar Marvel entries in latest releases. Ethan Hawke is really believable as the main villain of the show. May Calamawy is okay, but I was not that impressed by her acting skills which felt average. She definitely did not go for the extra mile here.

I liked the photography and most of the visual effects are pleasant to watch. Unfortunately the CGI was very inconsistent: some of the digital characters and setup looked amazing, while others lacked detail and I could definitely see that there was something off. With a bit more time and effort, the VFX department maybe could have achieved better results. I feel that "The Moon Knight" is a good superhero origin story and it is a character that at some point down the massive Marvel timeline, I hope will find his space in the main cinematic universe.
