I hadn't been liking this series, but this episode was amazing!
And there it is. The first great episode of the season.
This is The Rehearsal episode 0
What an amazing episode. This was peak TV.
The best pilot I've seen in a while
I wasn't too crazy about this.
Wow, is this really a good Marvel show?
Much, much better than the first episode.
Star Trek did the Death Star before it was cool!
Loved the concept for this one.
Well, so that was the "epic finale we were promised". It's okay, I guess. I think this episode would've been more interesting in a slightly longer format. I'll go into specifics:
First of all, I must say I was really excited to get to see Spider-Man once more, but nope, he doesn't appear anywhere, so that's a bummer. That aside, every character seems like they accept this reality waaay too quickly. Also, I get why they couldn't be wasting too much time since they're dealing with a multiversal threat, but I really liked the bits where they talk to each other and get to know the differences with their timelines, but they're too few and it ends up feeling unrealistic they wouldn't be more interested on that sort of stuff. Also, as has already been pointed out in another review, Ultron feels extremely nerfed. He has every infinity stone and goes down way too easily. Another thing that bothered me, didn't The Watcher know about Killmonger being a betrayer? Really?
Anyways, I wasn't really so engaged with this series so even though I think this episode has some flaws, it's a "satisfying" end, even though I really wanted this to be an anthology series instead of gratifying people with the modern "everything has to be connected with everything else" mentality. At the end of the day, it's just a Marvel series, so well, time to move on.
Well, there goes my hope this stayed as an anthology series. It's okay, I guess. I don't really like how the Watcher is portrayed in here. Let's see how the ending pans out.
A 20 minute episode is far more interesting and endearing than a whole trilogy of movies. I really hope this gets expanded into a full series!
Incredible! That's what animation and creativity can get you!
I liked the whole part with Kirk feeling alone in the ship. It gives a different glimpse at the Enterprise and the dynamic between characters.
Pretty interesting episode and concept behind it all.
Can't believe they turned 2013's The Purge into a 1960's episode of Star Trek!
I was making a list with my favorite Star Trek episodes so far, but now I've seen so many I've loved it became irrelevant. I'm becoming increasingly in love with this series.
Amazing episode! Felt so much tension throughout it all.
I like the idea behind this episode but it's extremely uncomfortable watching Kirk being a pedo.
A much more action-oriented episode with more dynamic shots than usual! Pretty exciting overall and kept me at the edge of my seat constantly. The giant reminded me of the "To Serve Man" episode from The Twilight Zone.
A very interesting episode. It delves into slavery, sexism and beauty standards. Yes it's somewhat boring at least in the first half, but it's curious nontheless. My only problem is that even though it "condems" sexism in a way that makes the men in this episode question whether they want a "fake" woman that appeases their desires or a "real woman" it does so basing it off in the ideal that a "true woman" must be serviceable, cook and cry. So yes, it's a progressive episode in a way, but also very rooted in many old-fashioned ideas. Still, a thought-provoking episode given the context of the original airing. I would like to think this is as "far" as they could go, yet, I'm in awe at what Star Trek got away with in every episode, and I'm still just in the beginning of the series.
Probably my favorite episode so far excluding the pilot. I'm impressed with William Shatner's acting!
I like the metaphor. I think the story fits very well the short format, though it somehow feels slightly undeveloped.
A fun one. Very good microfiction.
The best one till now. Very Blade Runner-esque (the ending is just screaming "hey, 'member that movie?") but still pretty interesting.
Very uninspired and predictable. Off to a bad start.
So unnecesary. I'll be in the extreme minority here but I think it was uncalled for. The point of the series was to build something apart from the movies and it just started having guest appearance after guest appearance and well... I'm out of here. I just lost all interest in the series. Apart from that, I guess it was a well directed episode. I just don't agree with the decision to have that character in the series.
What a mess. Started all right but then it starts making no sense. Very bad editing and direction overall.
First Rick & Morty episode I really enjoyed in a very long time.
