Cloak & Dagger (2018–2019)
9/10
Dares to go where other MARVEL properties won't!
8 June 2018
Starting here I would like to say that Cloak & Dagger is Marvel's most serious property released till date! As the titles suggests, it's a real game-changer in the super hero movies/series era, by being a social/drama series which ALSO contains super hero material. It truly manages to capture correctly many different social aspects of everyday life that exist out there. Many people cope with 'em, but no other series will go that deep in exploring them and their outcomes on people's characters. Subjects like parenting, teenage life, crimes and drugs, are heavily covered by the shows first two episodes.

  • The writing and plot manage to move smoothly from scene to scene, without making the viewer feel bored. Dialogues are also well-written
  • Cinematography & Photography are equally good with Netflix's shows
  • The CGI manages to keep it at the usual Marvel TV levels = totally good (focusing mainly on Cloak's cloak and Dagger's daggers)
  • Beautiful sound design, coming along with a lovable soundtrack
  • The acting is pretty good from main characters, especially Cloak & Dagger, just nominate these kids already!


* I would only hope for more action sequences in the end of the day, but by maintaining the show's style & character they way they are now is breathing a fresh air of uniqueness for this show.

In a nutshell, everything is tying together MARVELously in this show! If you're looking for a deeper show than all the other super hero series out there, then there's your go!
