Featured review
A honest 10/10, perfect pilot
Well on the superhero front I think it's safe to say HBO MAX= 1, Disney Plus = 0 (save for Wandavision)
I'm amazed at the quality of this episode. Of course Jame Gunn is super talented but there is a low key aspect to the comedy and R rated elements that works perfectly, almost better than The Suicide Squad.
First of all the opening credits are amazing, unskippable. Then the balance between the character scenes and action sequences is spot on. Actual actions scenes, good CGI and WELL CHOREOGRAPHED fights : dear Marvel should take notes, yeah I'm looking at you, Hawkeye. The cast feels real and is immediately likable.
Of course, you have to like Gunn's tendency to saturate the screen with OTT overacting characters laughing at their own dirty awful jokes and his obsession with ironic soundtracks, but when it works it really does. The humor has actually room to breath and feels like conversations thanks to the format. In his movies the jokes are so hysterical they can feel like advert lines. And finally the cherry on the cake is the greatness of John Cena who is basically a cartoon Schwarzenegger.
Plus I just rewatched all the available episodes and there is a very clever caterpillar scene that foreshadows the main storyline... Well done DC. Well done.
