Featured review
Frustrating but in all the right ways
This 2nd ep is giving promise that the show will be consistent in quality. The pilot was strong and ep 2 continues from strength to strength.
We see the majority of the ep from Steven's eyes and because of that we feel the frustration when no one believes him which is great and it really pushes that mystery theme of keeping the character and the audience in the dark.
The cinematography picks up with its lighting and use of long tracking shots and I don't think I'll ever get tired of the shots that involve reflections. They add so much to the show and even seeing them talk via reflections with cracks splitting his face up. This ep gives us more character motivations and a bit more depth and the action may be not as many were hoping but it definitely shows what's in store for future eps as it gives us more of a taste but leaves us itching for more giving more of that frustration in a good way.
I'm glad they're still steering clear of connecting to the wider MCU and so far they haven't ruined any tense moment with a cheap joke - a MCU trademark it seems.
The only gripes is that some of the jokes do fall a little flat but not enough to take away from the moment and that British accent, I can get used to the accent as the episode goes on but it's the actual dialogue that doesn't fit with the accent, you can tell a non British person wrote it. The CGI is soft at times which makes me think they're saving the budget for the bigger fights towards the end of the season.
Overall the episode is consistent but a little flatter but seems to be shaping to be one of the better MCU shows.
P.s. I do think they need to make a MCU TV intro for the TV shows.
P. P. S. The suit is definitely a fantastic outfit, if not one of my favourite superhero outfits in live action.
