Secret Invasion hasn't been a bumpy ride, but it's been a disappointing one nonetheless. Instead of falling off a cliff past a certain point, the show simply orbits around a certain level of what we'd like to call "safe mediocrity." It's definitely not as bad as some fans are suggesting, but it's completely disposable Marvel fare that won't have a noticeable impact on the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). We don't know for sure what happened behind the scenes with the reportedly sizable rewrites and reshoots, but the limited series fails to impress and lacks a distinct style.
In ‘Home,' our heroes find the courage to face Gravik head-on and thwart his global takeover plans. It's all rather limited in scope and quite straightforward, though there's one big swing that could pay off later down the line. More surprising is the fact Marvel has left so many doors open and entire plot threads unresolved. If we didn't know this was a limited series, we'd think season 2 was coming sooner rather than later.
