So... all in all I liked the episode. The fight scenes were a little awkward CGI-wise at times, but I still liked them. It's just... I feel like if this was a 10 episode series, it'd be better and they wouldn't have to rush. The biggest disappointments for me were as follows:
1. The biggest one is that Evan Peters was just some guy... they KNEW fans were going to speculate multiverse X-Men, because it was WAY too obvious. But the fact that it wasn't, makes it a slap in the face. Not because it's not Pietro, but it's like they went out of their way to hype us up and then intentionally disappoint us.
2. Monica was set up to show her full scale abilities, but... she just... got shot and didn't die. We didn't even get to get her thoughts on her own abilities. Also, sidenote, I though Hayward was a decent antagonist, but he kind of became randomly and awkwardly evil and sadistic.
3. Wanda is super powerful, but it doesn't make sense why she'd remember or know how to cast rune spells. Visually it looked good, but it was weird plotwise. There was also an awkward moment with Olsen's acting when she was looking up at Agnes conversing. Just my opinion on that. She also faced like no consequences for torturing those people. AND if they made a tenth episode, the "goodbye" could have been a lot more emotional and powerful, but she accepted it too quickly.
I did really like every scene with Vision. I loved seeing full out Scarlet Witch. Overall the series is a 7.5 for me, but this finale was a bit of a let down and I don't think its my fault.
