I gave it a 6-7. It's ok. I honestly loved the first half. But everything after Madripoor was so-so.

The second half was just so frustrating. They want you to hate John Walker but to "Sympathize" with Karli. Who's literally a terrorist. But don't call her that. Even people in her group don't call her out? C'mon now. The show was all over the place.

Zemo was one of the bright spots for me but he got taken out of the story. With the exception of the opening flight action, The fights were unimpressive & dull. The reveal of The Power Broker was anticlimactic af.

Also, I'm a sucker for inspirational speeches. From Captain America to Optimus Prime, President Whitmore & Stacker Pentecost to name a few. But Sam's speech at the end felt like it went on & on. Or was that just me? lol

I give it a 2. It's the worst MCU project so far and a harbinger of the crap to come.

4/10

Feels like 'leftovers' from the theatrical films... the effects look very good for a TV series, but they don't measure up to the films and the story felt like it was stretched to fill the running time they had to meet.
