Ms. Marvel Season One
SCORE: 65
I am thankful we had the $1.99 month of Disney+ so I could watch Ms.
Marvel Season One. I really hope Disney starts releasing this MCU shows
on DVD and Blu-ray in the near future. Iman Vellani does a wonderful job
of portraying Kamala Khan in Ms. Marvel Season One. She has one of those
infectious smiles that speaks volumes to her life experiences. She is
obviously loving life and what she is doing. There are six episodes in
Ms. Marvel Season One. They are around fifty minutes each. That counts
recap, intro, and credits. The ending credits of the last episode had
some interesting things in it. There will be spoilers in this review.
Ms. Marvel Season One actually taught me something historically I did
not know about. When India won its independence from Great Britain it
split into two countries. Pakistan was set up for the Muslims. The rest
of India was Hindu. I looked this up and found out that what was
referenced in Ms. Marvel Season One is based in our reality. I thought
that was pretty neat. It is always interesting to hear about events from
the past. Ms. Marvel Season One does a really good job of educating the
public to this event and how Muslims felt about it.
I am not from a Muslim home so I cannot speak to how accurate the
portrayal of mosques are in Ms. Marvel Season One. I did some research
and there is debate on the Internet about how accurate the Muslim
characters are in Ms. Marvel Season One. I will leave it there and let
you come to your own conclusion. There are snipes at the government and
the typical Hollyhate opinion about how persecuted Muslims are in
America. I have not experienced that nor have I had any real honest
genuine Muslims tell me that is happening. I leave the door open to the
possibility.
The issues families could have with Ms. Marvel Season One are violence,
blood, bad language, racism, enticement to lust, lack of attire,
promotion of sexual deviancy, magic, aliens and more. I do love how the
mother in Ms. Marvel Season One wanted to keep her daughter safe,
especially from boys that would abuse her. It is a bit strange the
mother was so worried about American boys, but not the Pakistan boys. I
found that really odd. The daughter does rebellious things like sneak
out in Ms. Marvel Season One.
There is an interesting concept within Ms. Marvel Season One that I have
heard from Hollyhate before - "I want to see people like me doing that."
My experiences with that in the real world is it starts that way and
then goes to: "I only want to see people like me," and winds up
discriminating against others based on race. The other problem is what
if everyone says that? How do you placate everyone? Is there some
massively long list of different kinds of people where every box has to
be checked? What about hiring the best people for that job?
Ms. Marvel Season One introduces the Djinn to the MCU. They seemed
really powerful at first but were pretty easy to kill off. The last two
may not have actually died though. I was not clear on that. Is that how
someone traverses between the dimensions? The time travel element was
cool within Ms. Marvel Season One where Kamala saves her grandmother.
The whole mutation part made me think of the X-Men. I enjoyed most of my
time with Ms. Marvel Season One.
