This was a rough episode to review and discuss. Was it because of the subject matter? Maybe. Was this an important episode for people to watch who have gone through suffering in childhood? Maybe. Was it an important episode to the character of Marc Spector and for the show Moon Knight? Probably. Was it a well-meaning episode? Yeah. Was it a good penultimate episode in a six episode series. Absolutely not.
Episode five was great and terrible at the same time. For the show, it puts a grinding halt on the entire narrative. Marc is in heaven now. Why should we care? Is he NOT in heaven? Well, you should have shown us more at the end to hint that's the case. If the people putting this show together think that pulling a "St. Elsewhere" style reveal at the end or "J.R."-ing us with scenes of Jake Lockley under sedation at the end, then this show was a colossal fraud. Marvel fans don't want or need psychology lessons. Marvel fans want superheros saving the day. If you're going to tell fans of the genre that they'll have to do with it being all in someone's mind, well, you can do that, but don't expect people to watch. Something tells me (woke)Disney will complain anyway.
Yeah, that's right, this show is bringing out a political side the host would rather keep hidden. That should tell you enough. Let's just say we're venturing into "Rian Johnson" territory with this show and it has a lot to live up to in it's final minutes, coming on May 4th, 2022.
Did you like the episode? Great! You're allowed. That doesn't mean other points of view aren't valid. It's not our glass of water, but maybe your scales found balance on the boat, like some "perfectly level" roulette wheel in the "Princess of the Duat" casino.
Music appreciation time! "May Alla Del Sol" from Manuel Bonilla is how Marc Spector first experiences A'aru and "Love and Revenge" by Rayess Bek samples "Saat Saat" as performed by Sabah. We still can't figure out where that song appeared last week, but we're not going back to watch again...unless episode 6 is a "banger" of a finale.
