The First Reactions To ‘Moon Knight’ Are In And It’s “Unlike Anything We’ve Seen In The MCU Before”

Moon Knight is finally getting the recognition he deserves. After years of fans wanting him to appear in live-action, we’ll finally see Marc Spector (or Steven Grant?) make the jump from the pages. We at OTN along with others have seen the first four episodes and to nobody’s surprise, it’s looking like Disney has another hit on their hands. Take a look at some of the first reactions, including from One Take News‘ own BSL, below:

While each episode is fantastic, the first and last episodes are the best ones by a long shot. This show truly feels like RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK in the MCU and i'm all here for it. I cannot wait to see the last 2 episodes! pic.twitter.com/ZcYblo0HZs

The first episode of #MoonKnight is everything I want in this show. It’s everything we love about what the MCU can do, but goes way beyond it and positions it as one of the most unique shows/properties that we’ve seen. Isaac is great and Konshu is FANTASTIC. pic.twitter.com/BvQYl5bihv

#MoonKnight is a brilliantly bonkers dark globe-trotting adventure; this is Marvel's trippy National Treasure. Oscar Isaac is the best addition to the MCU since RDJ, entwining torment and humour into a morally ambiguous cypher – Marc Spector is a whole new calibre of hero. pic.twitter.com/nlL9QgtbyA

A HUGE thank you to @DisneyPlusUK and @theDDAgroup for letting me watch the first FOUR episodes of #MoonKnight . I obviously won't post spoilers here but, if you want my reaction: the best Marvel Studios project I've EVER seen.

What's refreshing is that so far #MoonKnight is completely removed from any existing MCU narrative. You don't have to know anything about the MCU in order to enjoy it. Totally its own thing – super odd & mind-bending (and brutal at times) w/ pockets of hilarious British humor pic.twitter.com/KLPIYsVScT

#MoonKnight is really good. Episodes 1 & 4 are my favorites.

Oscar Isaac is great as Steven & Marc. Costumes look fantastic.

It’s definitely Marvel’s darkest and scariest. The mysteries kept me really engaged and it plays a lot like a movie! Can’t wait to see 5 & 6. pic.twitter.com/tozAPuqtMT

of rich and intriguing details and I’ve loved every second of how Diab, Slater, Benson & Moorhead have built this new corner of the MCU.

Episode 4 was my favourite, leaving on an exciting cliffhanger, an excellent sign that this series could be the best content from Disney+ yet

#MoonKnight is good! The strongest parts of the show are Oscar Isaac’s performance, the adventure theme & the action. He is a relentless badass & I can’t wait to see more of him.

The first episode of #MoonKnight is *very* good. It’s unlike anything else in the #mcu. @MarvelStudios provided 4 of the 6 episodes for people doing the press junket so will be watching the next 3 tomorrow. They usually only send 1 or 2 episodes. Can’t wait to see where this goes pic.twitter.com/6wtOSDWe8p

Four episodes in, I'm liking #MoonKnight. Not sure how this is going to only be 6 eps. Feels like there's so much more story to tell after 4. People are probably (rightfully) chatting about Isaac + Hawke, but I really love May Calamawy here. Can't wait for people to see her. 💪

Steven Grant and Marc Spector are perfect I love them and everyone on this show is now my best friend. That is my initial review of #MoonKnight and I will write up all my feelings later.

#MoonKnight continues the trend of evolving the MCU into genres we’ve never seen. Oscar Isaac gives a tortured performance but prepare for a slow pace that focuses more on a psychological character study with punches of action. Hoping it picks up.

#MoonKnight is ok.

From what I’ve watched so far I don’t feel invested in the characters or where the story is going. Oscar Isaac is no doubt a brilliant actor but it’s not enough. I am still curious how this will play out. @TheMoviePodcast Review Soon pic.twitter.com/yTjd5UtltL

If the early reactions are any indication, the reviews will likely be glowing as well when the Moon Knight review embargo lifts on March 29th at 9AM EST. Moon Knight premieres on March 30th and will air weekly from that point on. Are you excited for the show? Let us know!
