Review:
Season 1 Rating: Watch it / [It depends] / Skip it
  • Luke Cage is the basic superhero story, a reluctant good guy versus a cartoonish bad guy. The first episode had a lot of agency in crafting the main character, but the character study was abandoned by the second episode.
    Cottonmouth (Mahershala Ali) is the typical bad guy devoid of any nuance and Luke Cage (Mike Colter) smashes everything to defeat the bad guy. Both characters attack the people around their foe and not their foe directly to prolong the series and eventual confrontation.
