Marvel Zombies
yay gore
this feels very what if? in a way that the story is whatever and a lot of potential is wasted because the cast of characters and storylines chosen is just like kind of whatever as well, but the action and fan-service is really fun to watch and the animation is always amazing. and now it's made even better with zombie violence. and wow this show really doesn't fuck around, evident by them killing fan favorites immediately in the FIRST EPISODE.
while the first episode did gag me, i was horrified to see simu liu and awkwafina in the next episode. and they stick around until the very end. absolutely not.
i actually liked the story of this show a lot but not long after the cracks started to show. and its even more obvious because this shows entire runtime isn't even above 2 hours. so this already not-so-great story is compressed and even more undercooked than an average season of what if? and it's all evident in the climax where the gibberish lore and offensively chiche ending just slightly ruins it for me.
ok but how can i talk shit when kamala and super fucking cool demigod blade is frequently and brutally murdering zombies with explicit gory detail. and also elizabeth olsen coming back to voice wanda... so i will forgive part of the simu liu and awkwafina terrorism and predictable story.
#okay 3.5 stars
