Video Review – Marvel’s Secret Invasion is dark, joyless, and intensely brilliant!

June 21, 2023 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno reviews the first two episodes of Marvel’s Secret Invasion…

Secret Invasion hits hard with its bleak narrative in a complete tonal departure from anything the MCU has done before. While not devoid of entertainment, the new Marvel Disney+ series offers fans a new side of Nick Fury and Marvel storytelling.

In the wake of more political-driven comic book films like Captain America: Winter Soldier and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Secret Invasion puts straightforward thrills ahead of what the internet dubbed “capeshit.”

Check out the review below, and be sure to follow us on YouTube for more reviews, exclusive interviews, and other video content…

Secret Invasion sees the return of MCU veterans Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Don Cheadle as James Rhodes, Cobie Smulders as Maria Hill, Ben Mendelsohn as Talos, Martin Freeman as Everett Ross along with Emilia Clarke as G’iah, Kingsley Ben-Adir as Gravik, Olivia Colman as Sonya, and Killian Scott and Christopher McDonald in as yet-unrevealed roles.

Marvel Studios Secret Invasion, an Original series, is streaming on June 21st on Disney+.
