IR TV Review: MOON KNIGHT - EPISODE 4 [Marvel/Disney+]

The texture of adventure begins to make its turnstead a little more available in Episode 4 of "Moon Knight". Not that the essence of "The Mummy" in a way wasn't there before but the story takes on a more idealized texture of that. Again the travails of "Total Recall" seep in within the story because of its reflexivity and motivation depending what character is present. There is a moment though that a scene from "The Rise Of Skywalker" (which Isaac also starred in) comes into play because of the vast landscapes that it seems were shot in Jordan as well. The psychology of the piece does key in halfway through. The reasoning of the accent of course by now is well established but it skirts the line as it is supposed to settle between a lie and the truth especially with Ethan Hawke in an interesting way in his character walking the line. It is weirdly reflective of certain elements of "Star Wars" again in that there needs to be balance in the Force.

There has to be enough bad to recognize part of the good. That hopefully is a certain ideal that will be used in "Obi Wan Kenobi" but it is a tricky balance that requires exactly the right actor at the right stage in his life. Isaac does it admirably though one sees it played a little harder in the Stephen version which makes him both empathetic but also at a certain point grating. It is interesting to see what points a certain character's favor. Like an episode in "Star Trek: TOS" when Kirk is separated into two halves per se, one cannot exist or be full without the other. What is still unclear is the reason the psyche broke. We get a possibility maybe at one point and the end credits of all the episodes have all featured a certain link which also bridges another very real point. The latter half of the episode jumps in a different direction which really gets to the heart of the matter almost literally which is an interesting direction to go and relates to something else. B
