View Details Critic Reviews for Marvel's Cloak & Dagger Season 1 All Critics (54) | Top Critics (13) | Fresh (48) | Rotten (6) Cloak and Dagger hasn't escaped the problems that plague its brethren, but it has introduced some fresh components that make the latter feel like a real possibility. Jun 15, 2018 | Rating: B | Full Review… Liz Shannon Miller indieWire Top Critic Importantly, crucially, we get believable and well-earned reasons - rooted in information revealed in those early, talkier episodes - for them to adopt the superheroic lifestyle, and devote themselves to justice, instead of revenge. Jun 7, 2018 | Full Review… Glen Weldon NPR Top Critic Disjointed but an ultimately intriguing mixture of drama and superhero theatrics Feb 29, 2020 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review… Laurence Boyce VODzilla.co This series is going to do its own thing, and be a great option for long-time fans, casual fans, and those completely new to these characters. May 29, 2019 | Full Review… Tessa Smith Mama's Geeky Well developed lead cast, a detestable villain, and a good finale, it's just a shame about Episode 9... Anyway, more than worth a watch, and a great addition to the MCU. Feb 3, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… David Hogan hoganreviews.co.uk Teamwork is where Marvel's Cloak and Dagger's true power lies. And we can't ignore the radiant connection that Tandy and Tyrone have together. Dec 26, 2018 | Rating: 4.7/5 | Full Review… Justin Carreiro TV Fanatic Cloak and Dagger is just getting started. Dec 26, 2018 | Full Review… Christina Roberts Culturess By the end of the Season 1 finale, titled "Colony Collapse," Cloak & Dagger not only gave the male half of the titular duo his proper outfit, but it also introduced a comic vigilante that fans have been waiting to see: Mayhem. Dec 26, 2018 | Full Review… Nick Venable CinemaBlend I really enjoyed Cloak and Dagger. I'm intrigued by the mystery around Tyrone and Tandy's powers without feeling overwhelmed by "What a twist!" machinations. Dec 26, 2018 | Full Review… Jamil Ragland Black Nerd Problems I enjoyed Cloak & Dagger a lot more than I expected. I doubt any of you would be disappointed in a well acted drama with superhero undertones. In an age of Infinity Wars and gritty street level heroes, sometimes it is nice to see something unique. Dec 26, 2018 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review… Alex Maidy JoBlo's Movie Network Its heroes are suitably worth rooting for, if only they would find some positivity in their abilities, and they're certainly better together than apart (which is surely the point). Dec 26, 2018 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review… Allison Keene Collider I'm excited for Cloak & Dagger because of the thing it's going to become, the dance the characters are beginning to choreograph around each other -- the anticipation and the narrative tension. Jun 8, 2018 | Full Review… Kristen O'Neal Birth.Movies.Death. View All Critic Reviews (54) Audience Reviews for Marvel's Cloak & Dagger: Season 1 Oct 12, 2020 Very mediocre and boring. Joe S Jul 23, 2020 If you thought the Netflix shows felt disconnected from the rest of the MCU, just wait till you see this show. Sure, Roxxon, a corporation you might remember from the second season of Agent Carter, is important to the story but replace the name and you've got another show that has me doubting whether or not its even canon to begin with. Seriously, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the aforementioned Agent Carter are the only shows that actually feel like they're in the same universe. And since all the shows got cancelled, S.H.I.E.L.D. is coming to a natural end and Jeph Loeb left Marvel Television, we never will get to see how everybody adapted to a post-Infinity War era. Now that I've vented out my frustrations as to why the MCU shows feel pretty inconsequential to the franchise in the grand scheme of things, what did I think of the first season of Cloak & Dagger? It's good. Not great, mostly because of pacing issues which I think are more blatant here than in the Netflix shows since the season only has ten episodes to win viewers over, compared to thirteen. But it still had enough moments in the earlier episodes to keep me interested. Then we get to the seventh episode. Because of the scenario alone, I found it to be hands-down the best episode of the season. The acting is really good and I do like the character development our two protagonists go through as well as finding it interesting how they learn to control their powers and use them to their advantages for their own separate motives. Similar to movies like Unbreakable, the first season of this short-lived series shows that you can make superhero media that has few, short action sequences work effectively. Relying on that sweet, sweet grit, man. Even if it is somewhat lighter in tone, when compared to the Netflix shows. Critics praised the show's New Orleans setting...good for them. I didn't find anything special except for that Auntie Chantelle character and Mardi Gras. No disrespect, just that I didn't find anything special about it other than having our characters conveniently far away from the crazy stuff that happens in the movies and other TV shows. While the first season of Cloak & Dagger certainly isn't MCU television at its most compelling, its far from disastrous either and still warrants being seen for anybody binge-watching all MCU movies and TV shows, at the moment. Jacob B May 05, 2020 I stopped 3 episodes in. Slow, preachy. #getwokegobroke Bear F Jan 30, 2020 Solid enough. Slow start and the climax doesn't explain as much as it should. Things start to pick up around episode 7. They don't have any mentors so they are figuring it all out on their own. It's more grounded like the other superhero shows but these characters actually have abilities which do get used, but not in a way that is fully satisfying. I'm not sure what is missing but perhaps it will be there in season 2. Richard D Sep 18, 2019 This tv series is great: the acting is very good, the two main characters share a good connection, the drama and superhero elements are well balanced and deserves more. Fabio T Aug 23, 2019 Less dark and gritty than their Netflix Marvel series' counterparts, but Cloak & Dagger is compelling none the less. A good introduction to the origin amongst trying to flesh out the characters and their powers. Some of the teenage angst is fun but the "everything is pointless" mentality does begin to wear a bit thin, but Cloak and Dagger finally start working together. I especially enjoyed Nöelle Reneé Bercy's Voodoo teen queen Evita and Ally Maki's environmental warrior Mina Hess and Tim Kang as her father, Ivan who makes a never ending insanity rather funny. Looking forward to season two. Cait G Aug 17, 2019 Honestly I had very high hopes for this show. First and foremost I must say the acting was very done very well! which was the reason I didn't rate this lower. That being said the writers of this show are my main problem. I appreciate the fact that they try to convey the mindset and feelings of both Tyrone and Tandy BUT there are way too many instances where they portray the 2 SOOOOOO unbelievably naive its just absolutely unconvincing. No matter how well the actors did their job thats only half the battle. One example which almost made me stop watching the show completely was season 1 episode 7. (Spoiler Alert) That entire episode left me SOOOO unbelievably Annoyed. One minute Tandy can't get herself to leave over a stupid ass phone call (Yes I understand the loss of a close 1 can be difficult as I've gone through that myself) and just stands there staring at the phone like some moron deer in headlights. Im not sure if the writers were trying TOO hard or not hard at all. Then when she's finally over the stupid phone call she's there lecturing Hess. This cycle of Emotions (Usually negative) which leads the characters to one another; followed by reluctance of the others help, only to go through the most unnecessarily annoying drama which leads to the conclusion of conflict when the 2 work together. Then it stats ALL OVER AGAIN. This show honestly has me SOO ANNOYED which is why I'm on here ranting. if you watch the show there will be much to love about it, BUT even more to HATE. Choose wisely my friends.... Xiang H Jul 20, 2019 Great series. Good characters and character development. At times confusing editing between multiple scenes and timelines. Would have been better with just a little less of those. Only brief/smaller logical issues. Awful audio volume mixing. Jan K Jul 07, 2019 this was a solid season tyrone and tandy are both very interesting christopher p Jul 06, 2019 This show can be an acquired taste. There is a ton of drama in it, which may turn people off, but the tone of the show keeps me coming back. It's pretty dark with some themes and isn't your typical show, but it's unique. That's what I'll give it. Unique. The characters work really well together and the story is interesting enough. The politics in the show can be overdone though.
