The uneven quality of Phase 4 of the MCU post-Endgame has made for a bumpy ride. For every Black Widow (yeah, I know whatever), there's been an Eternals. For every Loki, there's been a Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Will that up-and-down swing of quality be the norm moving forward? Who's to tell? But, for now, at least we can revel in the fact that MOON KNIGHT RULES. Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke enter the MCU with one of the most distinct and thought provoking takes on a hero we've seen from Marvel in a long time and it brilliantly operates as it's own standalone thing mostly detached from the larger MCU. In doing so, Moon Knight is able to put its characters, themes, and emotions ahead of world building mandates that often bog these things down. The distinct creative voices of Mohamed Diab and Justin Bensen and Aaron Moorhead can be felt throughout the entirety of Moon Knight's six episodes giving it such a potent identity and especially, in the case of Mohamed Diab, authentic Egyptian representation. On top of all of that, Moon Knight beautifully and empathetically explores Marc Spector's battle with DID in a way lesser shows haven't. What makes Moon Knight such a beautiful entry into the MCU is that FOR ONCE one of these Marvel movies or Marvel tv shows took the time to focus on their characters and their emotionality in order to SAY something with the art being presented all while still delivering and exhilarating, mind-bending, action-packed, adventure. Moon Knight is the best MCU tv show and not only that, but it just might be the best thing Marvel has produced in this ongoing phase 4. Moon Knight is Perfect. Griffin (@griffschiller) gives you his Moon Knight review and explains why Moon Knight is perfect, Moon Knight ending explained, why Moon Knight is my favorite mcu movie in years, and what the mcu can learn from Moon Knight going forward! Enjoy this Moon Knight analysis!
