Ms. Marvel

[⭐️51%] Whilst initially surprising with how real it’s characters, interactions and exploration of culture felt, in the end Ms. Marvel (2022) still manages to fall below MCU standard with poor writing and some of the worst special effects the franchise has seen. It is clear that this show is more aimed at a younger audience, and it may work for them however watching it like any other Marvel project, it feels a lot cheaper. In the opening two episodes, before the focus shifted to the powers, Ms. Marvel (2022) worked well with diving deep into Kamala and her family’s culture, dynamic, age difficulties and her relationship with her friends. Iman Vellani played the character well, she was very charming in her first role, standing out as one of the best parts of the show. It starts strong and then fades out, with the quality severely dropping as the show went on. The villains of the show were some of the weakest the franchise has seen, and they lead to some confusing moments. Ultimately Ms. Marvel (2022) was designed for an audience younger than what it has appealed to thus far, and while it may work for them, it doesn’t for many.
