🎥🎞Series Review🎞🎥 - SHE HULK - Disney+ - PG - I am a strong supporter of female led shows and I have to admit that I was a little apprehensive about watching this new series because of all of the bad review it was receiving from Marvel fans and movie critics. This series is complete satire and truly fun to watch. Starring Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters, the cousin of Doctor Bruce Banner who was accidentally contaminated with Banner's blood after a car accident, a vibrant and successful lawyer who turns to specializing in cases involving super humans, but can also transform into a more subdued version of a female green Hulk, this show has a plethora of potential to help the Marvel Cinematic Universe [MCU] guide new superheros into their group without having to produce full feature films.But I'm getting ahead of myself. First of all, the series is a stand alone type of show, look at it as a sitcom format, where the leading character doesn't hide the fact of who she is and how she humorously handles new situations that arise. The visual effects are stunning and I'm surprised that the Hulk effect looks so natural when the character has to interact with real, non-CGI humans. She Hulk has no identity to hide and everyone knows what she can do at a moments notice. What I like best about the character's development is that she is "only human" and sometimes forgets that she his able to transform into the She Hulk when the need arises. She has simple vulnerabilities, but is a woman with genuine feelings and desires. Many people may not like that she has those weaknesses, but I think that's what makes the series writing and creativity to bring it to life brilliant. Created by Jessica Gao and directed by Kat Coiro, the production team for this series is woman heavy, which is also an alarming realization that most supporters of the MCU criticize against the show. "What do women know about putting a super hero show together," right?
This new series has plenty to offer with a ton of talented actors to support the show and present some interesting plots and story lines to keep you coming back to see the newer episodes of the show. Some of the big names that have made their cameos are Mark Ruffalo, Tim Roth, Steve Coulter, and others. There are also cross-over episodes with other series; Daredevil being the most popular one in the latest episodes. But everything in this series is done and presented smartly, even when the lead character breaks the fourth wall and talks directly to the camera. The writers hold no secrets and they use She Hulk sparingly enough to entice you to want to see more of her. I think Maslany has done an inedible job portraying both sides of her character and just wanting to have a normal life and not depend on being the She Hulk all the time just to be successful.
Disney should push for another season to get more stability and trust in the show and to also bring in more comic book characters who have been left out of the MCU and bring them into the forefront. Sadly though, the rumors starting to surface through the web is that the series will be cancelled. In my opinion, Disney should dump the dreaded Boba Fett series and keep She Hulk alive for another two seasons.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ [4 of 5 Stars]
