1. Intense pace.

2. Solid background score to go with that intense pace.

3. Natural acting performances from everyone.

4. Season 2 as good as first one, sometimes even better.

5. Solid screenplay and excellent photography.

Definitely very engaging and worth it. Season start can sometimes appears to be a bit slow as the background builds, but then the pace picks up to an extent where you can't stop watching!

This like any other series should not be compared to any other ones. But just so you have an idea of the type of series I tend to like - some of my other favorite series:

Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Mirzapur, Khakee, The Family Man, Sacred Games, Your Honor.

I am rarely motivated to take the time to rate/review movies. So the fact that I am even here typing this should tell you something. I ended up watching this movie because my child wanted to watch this so badly, citing the excellent ratings on IMDB as a reason to tell me it was worth the risk of covid exposure in a theater. I really wonder how is it even possible that people would rate this movie a 10/10 unless they are such die hard Marvel fans that they are ready to rave about anything that Marvel sends their way. Just to be clear, I have myself thoroughly enjoyed a lot of Marvel movies/series. The plot in this movie seemed like it was made up just to create a spiderman sequel. The plot seemed so dumb and lack luster. The background score seemed annoying at times. And as other reviews have pointed out, it was like someone had to tell us when exactly to laugh for what was an intended joke and on more than one occasion, the scene was a few seconds longer than it needed to be and it felt so awkward. I did not hear a single person actually laugh to any of the jokes in the theater and there were lots of people in the theater. I think this is probably the worst Marvel movie I have seen and by far.

If you've watched movies like Hobbit, you may find this movie boring.

And getting a bit tired of Keeravani's music now. Songs failed to deliver even decent music. Rajamouli should have tried newer Composers.

I felt Magadheera was a way better movie for a strong story line and screenplay.

The best I can say is it is a Good attempt and strictly a one time watch (that too if you really want to watch due to peer pressure of the hype) especially if you've watched Lord of Rings or Hobbit Series. It is clear the idea of enemy talking a different language was similar to the Orcs in Hobbit.

I am quite disappointed with some scenes where you can make out it is graphics. Example, soldiers running on the wall -- seriously, it looked like a video game's graphics. When so much money was spent, why couldn't they have gotten some decent graphics??? I was waiting for when the movie was going to end.
