Wow what a way to end the episode. Moon knight has already been up to this point a complex mystery but with the addition of what happened in this episode it has become much more complex.
The twist at the end of this episode finds mark wake up in a mental institution, with clues all around him referencing the previous episodes. This twist puts into doubt everything we have seen from the series as it questions weather any of it was real or if it was all just made up in Marks head. This changes the whole dynamic of the show now as it changes the perspective on what us as the audience thinks is going on and puts us in a position where we are just as confused as Mark and Steven.
Now if we go back to the start of this episode this was one of the darkest things I have seen come from the MCU, which gives me hope for the future of Daredevil and the rest of the defences for if they are brought back. The whole scene with Layla and that creature was just fantastic and just showed what a badass she really is.
We also can’t discuss this show without talking about the acting. The acting by everyone in this show is just amazing. May Calamawy really showed the fear and made all her action scenes really believable. Then you have Oscar Issac who just can now seamlessly change between Mark and Steven. The seven that stood out the most though however was when Ethan Hawke was playing the three oasis near the end of the episode and the voting between himself and Oscar Issac was just phenomenal. I see lots of Emmy nominations for this shows future.
Overall this episode may be my favourite of the season or is at least up there with the first. The last 2 episodes are going to have to do a lot to wrap up this season but I am excited.
